Red Soluble Strip Laundry Sacks — Safe Handling of Contaminated Laundry in Healthcare
The Glove Club’s Red Soluble Strip Laundry Sacks provide a safe, hygienic, and fully compliant solution for the handling and laundering of contaminated laundry in healthcare environments. Compliant with CFPP01-04 — the UK Department of Health guidance replacing HSG (95)18 for the safe handling of contaminated laundry — these sacks are an essential infection control consumable for NHS hospitals, care homes, nursing sectors, and professional laundry services.
Each sack features an integrated soluble strip that automatically opens during the wash cycle at approximately 20°C — eliminating the need for staff to handle contaminated laundry directly when loading washing machines. A securing tie provides an airtight seal during transport, protecting staff and the environment from exposure to infectious fluids and airborne bacteria. CE and UKCA marked, measuring 450mm x 620mm x 670mm, and supplied in a case of 200 sacks (4 packs x 50).
Key Features & Benefits
CFPP01-04 Compliant
Fully compliant with CFPP01-04 — the current UK Department of Health guidance document for the safe handling of contaminated laundry in healthcare premises, replacing the previous HSG (95)18 standard. Essential for NHS Trusts, care homes, and healthcare laundry services operating under CQC inspection requirements.
Integrated Soluble Strip Technology
The integrated soluble strip is the key safety feature of these sacks — automatically opening the bag during the wash cycle at approximately 20°C, releasing the contaminated contents directly into the machine without any manual handling by laundry staff. This eliminates a significant infection control risk at the point of laundry processing.
Securing Tie for Airtight Sealing
Each sack includes a securing tie that creates an airtight seal once filled — preventing the escape of infectious fluids, airborne bacteria, and contaminants during collection, transit, and storage prior to laundering. Supports safe handling at every stage of the laundry process.
Heavy-Duty Construction
Manufactured from high-strength material providing reliable protection against tearing, leakage, and puncture during handling and transport — ensuring the integrity of the contamination barrier throughout the entire laundry workflow from point of use to the washing machine.
Protection Against Infectious Fluids & Airborne Bacteria
The sack material provides an effective barrier against infectious fluids and airborne bacteria — protecting laundry staff, care workers, and the wider environment from exposure to potentially hazardous contaminants present in used healthcare linen and clothing.
Colour Coded — Red
The red colour coding clearly identifies these sacks as containing contaminated or infected laundry — supporting clear visual differentiation in busy laundry environments and reducing the risk of contaminated and clean laundry being mixed during processing.
CE & UKCA Marked
CE and UKCA marked, providing confidence in compliance and quality for use across UK and European regulated healthcare environments — including NHS Trusts, CQC-registered care homes, and professional healthcare laundry services.
