Brushing was labour-intensive and inconsistent; staff needed a documented, traceable cleaning process aligned with EN ISO 15883 expectations.

ChallengeOrganic residue in hinges and box locks; variable manual results; need for a validated, auditable workflow.
SolutionACMESONIC dual-tank setup (wash + rinse), 40 kHz, 55 °C enzymatic cycle, instrument trays, Degas mode, digital timer set to 12 min.
ResultZero manual pre-scrubbing, consistent cleanliness, a documented cycle for accreditation, and measurable staff-time savings.
