Polyurethane Sponge Bags

Using the correct tool is one of three components that impacts the effectiveness of your Environmental Monitoring Program (EMP). While site selection and frequency analysis are important factors, without the best sample collection tool, can you ultimately trust the results?

Introducing a Smarter Environmental Surface Sampling Sponge
PolyProbe™ and PolySponge™, hydrated polyurethane environmental sponges, and our newest addition, DRY PolyProbe™.

These premium polyurethane sponge bags are available both dry and hydrated; pre-hydrated with Hi-Cap™ Neutralizing Broth, provide surface sampling solutions superior to standard collection methods. Medical-grade polyurethane sponges are non-toxic, super absorbent, and more resistant than traditional cellulose sponges, making them ideal for sampling of all surfaces and danger zones including rough surfaces.

Pre-Hydrated: Collection Broth

HiCap™ Neutralizing Broth outperforms traditional broths. It provides superior neutralization, is nonallergenic, has a two-year shelf life, and is compatible with 3M™ Petrifilm™.
