W ATER Water is required for washing and rinsing. Water that is safe to drink may not be appropriate for decontamination, because of the effects of chemicals or additives. Even minute quantities of contaminants on surgical instruments can affect patients! Water can carry microorganisms and minerals (hard water ions). Surgical devices bypass the body’s defenses.

W ATER Q UALITY Some detergents are affected by water quality. Water can be soft or hard and may be treated by softening, RO, DI or distillation to achieve purity. Water quality can be measured for hardness, conductivity and pH. Case Medical uses RO high purity water in all of our cleaners.

T HE MEAT AND POTATOES The real cost savings lies in the cost per use. While the acquisition cost may be equal or slightly greater than other concentrated cleaners, the real savings is at the actual use dilution. Users will get anywhere from 4-10x more product for their money. Utilizing the correct amount of product reduces costs. Warning: Purchasing only looks at acquisition cost. Education is critical. Use the cost benefit analysis tool, which demonstrates the real cost savings at use dilution.

Find out what products the customer is currently using. Determine the number shipping units per month for each product. Ask the user for actual dilution rate set at the machines. Record information about pH and whether an acid neutralizer is used. U SE THE S UPER N OVA C OST B ENEFIT A NALYSIS Q UESTIONNAIRE

Diluted gallons out of 1 gallon of concentrate (1:1280, 1:512 or maybe 1:100)? Compare price per concentrated gallon. Compare price per diluted gallon. Compare price per use.

D ILUTION R ATE C ALCULATION SuperNova.25 concentration = ¼ [oz./gal.] ¼ oz. of Case Medical product per gal. of water 1 gal = 128 oz. ¼ : 128 [oz./oz.] = 1:512 SuperNova.1 concentration = 1/10 ounce per gallon 1/10:128[oz./oz.] = 1:1280

R EMEMBER SuperNova was validated at the dilution rate identified by the product name on the label, but it can go lower depending on water quality and degree of soil and in automated washers.

S UPER C ONCENTRATED P RODUCTS Contribute to major cost savings. The SuperNova.1 can be further diluted to 1/40 oz/gal depending on water quality. Validated, safe, cost effective products results in better patient outcome and frees staff for needed patient care. SuperNova results in significant cost and labor savings, reduced storage/inventory expense, freeing funds for needed patient care.

S ALES S TRATEGY When to introduce the cleaners? How to introduce the cleaners? Questions to ask your potential customer.

Q UESTIONS TO A SK What cleaners do you currently use for reprocessing surgical devices? Are you completely satisfied with your instrument cleaners? What do you like about your current product? If you could change anything about your instrument chemistries, what would it be? Do you know how much you’re paying for your cleaners? Do you know how much the cleaner costs per cycle in your sink or automated washer? Do you know what the current dilution rate is of the product used? Would you be interested in a product that is super concentrated? Do you know if your cleaners have been validated in independent laboratories or cleared by the EPA for DfE? If I could show you how to save money, time, energy, and labor utilizing an environmentally friendly, pH neutral, validated instrument cleaner would you be open to an evaluation or trial?

C OST S AVINGS Case Medical’s instrument cleaners are super concentrated which provides the user with a significant cost savings over the competition. Each bottle of SuperNova provides up to 1,000 uses and costs pennies on the dollar. Multiple enzymes in higher concentrations provide rapid soil breakdown at use dilutions. Up to a million times quicker than soap and water. Copy right 2009 © Case Medi cal Inc.

S AVINGS O VER THE O THER B RAND Avoid numerous unnecessary cleaners and steps Totally pH neutral means no corrosion Water-soluble liquid detergents means no residue Lowest cost when compared at use dilution means more bang for the buck Highest level of synergistic enzymes to speed up the cleaning process Super concentrated saves on shipping costs, inventory space and large drum disposal. Sealed system prevents cross contamination and spoilage.

S ELL V ALUE Cost versus price. Demonstrate with Cost Benefit Analysis data. Sell the value. Sell standardization. Sell validated products. Others may be concentrated, but have less enzymes. Most are less concentrated or never tested. The Steris Prolystica lube is mineral oil. Not allowed. Offer environmentally preferred, sustainable cleaners and truly durable, reusable containers.
