Main Description
Founded in 1938, the maker focuses on surgical blades, scalpels, and the handles that carry them. The system was built so a used blade is captured in a cartridge instead of being handled loose. Sterile cartridges serve the field, and the bulk non-sterile boxes serve preparation and utility areas. The operation holds ISO 13485, ISO 14001, and ISO 50001 certification. In-house sterilization and output above 1.5 million blades a day keep the range consistent.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the KLEEN system do?
The KLEEN Blade Management System holds blades in cartridges so a used blade is contained as soon as it leaves the handle. Containing the edge at the point of use lowers handling risk for the whole team.
What sizes do the cartridges cover?
The cartridges in this listing cover blade sizes 10, 11, 11P, 15, 15C, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24. Each size is a separate catalog number in sterile 50 per box or non-sterile 500 per box packaging.
Are the cartridges sterile?
Both sterile and non-sterile cartridges are in this listing, and the sterility is stated on every option label. Choose the sterile cartridges for the sterile field and the bulk non-sterile boxes for preparation areas.
Where are the usage instructions?
The KLEEN instruction sheet from the manufacturer is linked in the manuals section of this page. It shows the cartridge loading and blade capture steps in order.
Which blades work with these cartridges?
The cartridges are sized for standard surgical blades in the sizes listed. Match the cartridge size to the blade size being used.
