Andersen is proud to offer terminal sterilization solutions to many industries. All are competitively priced, easy to use and offer unparalleled versatility.
When you use endoscopes on a regular basis, you need an FDA-cleared, low temperature gas sterilizer that's easy to use and install. According to the CDC, more healthcare-associated outbreaks have been linked to flexible endoscopes than to any other type of medical device. Don't be part of the statistics.
All Andersen sterilizers offer terminal sterility (10-6 SAL), giving you the competitive advantage over practices that only use HLD.
You'll be surprised all the other things you'll start throwing in your sterilizer. Plastic, rubber and cellulose that can't go in your autoclave and high-dollar items you want to last longer!
Commonly Sterilized Items
With Andersen, achieve 10-6 SAL terminal sterilization without loss of efficacy (dulling, clouding or degrading):
Several of our sterilizers are FDA cleared for medical settings. We have 18 clearances covering everything from the sterilization of the longest and narrowest duodenoscope to rubber, plastic and cellulose.
Superbugs endanger your patients, staff and the long term stability of your facility. You need an FDA-cleared terminal sterilization solution. With incidents on the rise, sterility is no longer a luxury but, rather, a simple necessity.
When you think about staff time management, don’t just consider cycle time, also consider capacity. Instead of running all day, staff can run one cycle overnight.
High volume, small footprint. Compared to others, our chambers are big and our cabinets are small so you can sterilize more without taking up so much counter or floor space.
We are proud to offer abators that employ a dry catalyst resin. The resin converts ethylene oxide to biodegradable organic compounds. This is in contrast to catalytic abators that burn off EO and can be expensive to install.
Low acquisition and per cycle cost. Easy and inexpensive installation - no external air compressors or water lines. Many see full ROI in a few months or even a few weeks.
Ethylene oxide is the gold standard in sterilization. It offers hospital-level sterility assurance (10⁻⁶) along with unparalleled gentleness and material compatibility.
We have been using Andersen products for the last 15 years to sterilize our cystoscopy equipment. We recently needed to upgrade our equipment and found them to be extremely helpful in determining and meeting requirements for sterilization equipment.
Within a week we had our new unit up and running and support service was always available to help us with our questions. I highly recommend Anderson Products for any gas sterilization system needs.”

Since 2017, the FDA has received over 450 Medical Device Reports (MDRs) which describe patient infections post procedure or other possible contamination issues associated with reprocessing these devices [cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, and ureteroscopes].”
More healthcare–associated outbreaks have been linked to contaminated endoscopes than to any other medical device.
To prevent the spread of health-care–associated infections, all heat-sensitive endoscopes must be properly cleaned and, at a minimum, subjected to high-level disinfection after each use.
High-level disinfection can be expected to destroy all microorganisms, although when high numbers of bacterial spores are present, a few spores might survive.”
The only FDA-cleared, room-temperature gas sterilization solution on the market. When space is at a premium, Anprolene is king. All this at a very affordable price point.
The FDA-cleared EOGas 4 has four cycles to choose from. The fastest is just 3.5 hours. If you use the same high-dollar instrument more than once a day, this one’s for you!
Need a constant flow of sterile instruments for multiple specialists? Run 6-10 loads independently - start a new one while others are in process. Units can be validated.
