• Inspex^® 95kPa specimen bags designed for transporting specimens which must withstand a maximum pressure differential of 95 kPa.  The tamper-proof adhesive closure protects specimens down to –40° F.

New this year is our Saf-T-Zip Antimicrobial Specimen Bag and our Saf-T-Zip Biodegradable Specimen Bag.  Com-Pac’s new Saf-T-Zip Antimicrobial Specimen Bags help maintain hygiene and prevent infection in today’s most critical healthcare environments such as hospitals, clinical and research labs, environmental testing labs and nursing homes.  They’re safe, convenient and the material is FDA approved.

Our Saf-T-Zip Biodegradable Specimen Bag helps hospitals, labs and other healthcare facilities reduce their environmental impact when they dispose of specimen bags.  Both the zipper as well as the bag material are made from Enso^® resin which meets the tough ASTM-6400 for biodegradability in all 50 states.

All our Saf-T-Zip specimen bags are available with custom printing, thickness, sequential barcodes, the E-Z Tear opening feature and 50ml absorbents already in the bag.
