Description
Hot-air indicator tape is a specialised process-monitoring tape for dry-heat sterilisation, supplied as one roll of 55 m length and 19 mm width. The integrated chemical indicator changes from light green to brown when exposed to hot-air sterilisation conditions. It reacts simultaneously to temperature and time, completing the colour change at 160 °C after one hour or at 180 °C after 30 minutes. Intended for insensitive instruments and auxiliary equipment, this tape from manufacturer MBT-Brand provides clear visual confirmation that the required sterilisation parameters have been reached. The 19 mm width permits convenient application to packs, containers or instruments, while the 55 m roll length supports extended use in busy laboratory or clinical settings. By delivering an irreversible colour shift, the tape assists reliable documentation of dry-heat cycles without additional instrumentation. It integrates readily into existing sterilisation workflows and helps maintain consistent process control for non-sensitive devices and tools used in medical and research environments.
