A portable, ready-to-use dispensing system of dry wipers can be pre-moistened with your preferred chemicals, solvents and sanitizers7 to better ensure the level of cleaning, sanitizing or disinfecting required.
Ready-to-use closed-bucket system is designed to increase cleaning efficiency and reduce the risk of cross contamination8 by delivering a disposable wiper saturated with your desired chemical.
