Welcome to LAC Health’s comprehensive Sponges category, your trusted source for high-quality medical sponges designed for professional healthcare settings. Our selection includes a wide range of sterile, absorbent sponges tailored for surgical, clinical, and home care applications. These products are essential for wound care, surgical procedures, and general medical use, providing superior absorbency and reliability.
Our sponges are crafted from medical-grade materials such as cellulose, rayon, or polyester, ensuring biocompatibility and minimal risk of irritation. Key features include high absorbency rates (up to 20 times their weight in fluids), lint-free construction to prevent contamination, and various sizes from 2×2 inches to 12×12 inches for versatile use. Specifications often include thickness (e.g., 4-ply or 8-ply), packaging (sterile pouches or bulk packs), and sterilization methods (gamma irradiation or ethylene oxide).
In clinical settings, these sponges are indispensable in hospitals for surgical draping, wound packing, and fluid absorption during procedures. Surgical centers rely on them for precision in orthopedic and general surgeries, while clinics use them for minor wound care and dressing changes. Long-term care facilities and home health providers benefit from their ease of use in patient hygiene and incontinence management, promoting better outcomes and infection control.
All our sponges meet stringent regulatory standards, including FDA clearance for medical devices, ISO 13485 certification for quality management systems, CE marking for European compliance, and ASTM standards for material safety. This ensures they are safe, effective, and compliant for global distribution.
Selecting the right sponge involves considering factors like absorbency needs, size compatibility with wounds, and material preferences (e.g., non-woven for softness or woven for durability). Our sizing guides help professionals choose based on application, from laparotomy sponges for large surgical sites to cotton balls for delicate skin.
