Sterile storage cabinets are specialized enclosed units designed to maintain the sterility of medical instruments, supplies, and sterile packs after they have undergone sterilization until they are ready for use. These cabinets typically feature airtight seals, dust-proof construction, and sometimes include positive pressure ventilation with HEPA filters to prevent airborne contaminants from entering. They are often made of smooth, non-porous materials that are easy to clean and disinfect. Proper sterile storage is a critical step in the infection control process within hospitals, surgical centers, and clinics. By protecting sterilized items from environmental contamination (dust, moisture, microorganisms), sterile storage cabinets ensure that instruments remain sterile until the point of use, thereby minimizing the risk of healthcare-associated infections and supporting patient safety.
