The Meaning of Medical Grade
Medical grade often means using materials held to the highest standard of safety for any medical materials or devices. Many of the medical grade materials are used to minimize polymerization residues. These materials include plastics.
Plastics may be considered medical grade due to being highly sterile, rigid, transparent, and flexible. To consider materials medical grade, it needs:
- A series of U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention (USP) tests. This can evaluate biological response to elastomeric, plastics, and other polymeric materials that will come in contact with people.
- To meet the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards. These are requirements, specifications, guidelines, or characteristics that can be used consistently to ensure that materials, products, processes, and services are fit for medical settings.
- ASTM Testing. This encompasses approximately 12,000 globally operated standards developed by engineering leaders, healthcare, and technical experts for medical research and drug development, product manufacturing, care delivery, and more.
Describing Medical Grade Cabinets
When we think of medical grade cabinets, we think of those that are usually included in healthcare or other medical environments, such as:
- Clinics
- Hospitals
- Laboratories
- Dental offices
- Doctor’s offices
These cabinets are built differently according to the location’s safety regulations. Such cabinets help protect people and patients within these medical environments.
What Materials Make Up Medical Grade Cabinets?
First, let’s talk about design. Medical grade cabinets can be created as storage, wall, locker, or steel lab cabinets. According to what the business entails, such cabinets can be built with interchangeable options such as bins, trays, drawers, fixed or slide-out shelves, and more.
Like antimicrobial cabinets, medical grade cabinets are created to ward off harmful bacteria, microbes, and infectious diseases. They are created using a variety of resin, laminates, plastics, or medical grade stainless steel. In addition, medical grade cabinets may be created with a variety of materials like high-quality MDF, antimicrobial finishes, and metals like copper, silver, and stainless steel.
