About the Manufacturer: 

ITW Texwipe is a worldwide leader in contamination-control products for critical environments, known for disciplined process controls, documentation, and lot traceability across cleanroom consumables and solutions. For over 35 years SOS and Texwipe have been close partners. SOSCleanroom is the authorized Master Distributor of ITW Texwipe for the United States market.

 

In the sterile alcohol program, Texwipe positions TX3290 as a practical, audit-friendly standard: a defined USP-grade alcohol/water blend, ISO Class 5 filling, 0.22 micron filtration, double-bagging, gamma irradiation (SAL 10-6), and lot-coded containers supported by lot-specific certification. For contamination-control teams, that combination helps reduce variability across operators and shifts while supporting pass-through and critical-environment cleaning workflows where documentation discipline matters.

Texwipe TX3290 Features:
  • Made with USP-grade isopropanol (isopropyl alcohol) and USP-purified water (70%/30% by volume)
  • Filtered through a 0.22 micron filter (submicron filtered)
  • Filled in an ISO Class 5 environment
  • Gamma irradiated to a sterility assurance level of 10-6
  • Double-bagged in solvent-safe bags and packaged in a sealed poly bag case liner
  • Independent QC audits for sterility assurance
  • Lot traceable; each container lot coded with expiration date
  • Each shipment accompanied by lot-specific Certificate of Processing and Certificate of Compliance
  • Evaporates leaving low residue; no rinse required (process-dependent)
  • Often used in USP <797> / USP <800> environments as part of contamination-control workflows (follow your site SOP and applicable label/SDS guidance)
Texwipe TX3290 Benefits:
  • Standardizes cleaning chemistry: Eliminates the mixing, filtration, sterilization, and QC burden of producing sterile alcohol/water blends in-house.
  • Supports critical-environment pass-through: Prefiltered, double-bagged, and sterilized packaging helps reduce handling steps when staging supplies for controlled areas.
  • Low-residue drying behavior: Designed to evaporate with extremely low residues to support routine wipe-down and residue removal (validate against your surfaces and residues).
  • Audit-ready traceability: Lot coding, expiration dating, and lot-specific documentation support QA expectations and day-to-day compliance habits.
  • Economical bulk format: 1-gallon bottles are commonly selected where coverage-per-container matters and change-outs need to be minimized.
Common Applications:
  • Surface cleaning and residue removal on hard, non-porous surfaces (process-dependent)
  • Wipe-down for pass-through to controlled environments
  • Facilities currently blending and using isopropanol solutions that want a sterile, documented alternative
  • Used with cleanroom wipers for routine wipe-down programs (no wiper is truly “zero-lint” in every process condition; select low-linting substrates and validate to your SOP)
Best-Practice Use:
  • Control dispensing: Pour only what you need into an approved dispensing bottle or wipe bucket per SOP; keep bulk containers closed when not actively dispensing to reduce vapor loss and contamination risk.
  • Use clean-to-less-clean sequencing: Start with higher/cleaner surfaces and move to lower/traffic surfaces to reduce re-deposition.
  • Wipe technique matters: Use straight-line strokes with overlap; rotate wipe faces frequently and change wipes before they become overloaded.
  • Label discipline: Record opening/use per your site documentation practices, and align in-use dating to your QA requirements and the container expiration date.
  • Safety discipline: Treat as a flammable liquid; control ignition sources, ensure adequate ventilation, and follow SDS guidance for PPE and handling.
Selection Notes (This 1 Gallon Sterile 70% IPA Case vs. Other Options)
  • Bulk gallon vs. trigger spray: Choose 1-gallon packaging when throughput and coverage per container matter; choose trigger spray bottles for point-of-use convenience at benches, carts, and smaller stations.
  • Sterile vs. non-sterile 70% IPA: Sterile packaging/processing is often selected for higher-criticality areas and pass-through workflows; non-sterile can be appropriate in less critical zones depending on your risk assessment and SOP.
  • Documentation expectations: If QA requires lot-specific certificates and expiration tracking, sterile, lot-coded solutions simplify traceability and audit responses.
  • Shipping constraints: Plan for Ground-only Hazmat shipping and case-level Hazmat fees when forecasting costs and replenishment timing.

1) Where sterile 70% IPA fits (and where it does not)

Sterile 70% IPA is commonly used as a routine/intermediate disinfectant step and as a practical wipe-down solvent for removing many light surface contaminants on hard, non-porous surfaces (method-dependent). It is frequently used for pass-through wipe-down steps and controlled “finish” wipes where low residue and consistent supply chain controls matter.

Important scope note (accuracy-first)

70% IPA is not a sporicide. Many validated programs use sterile IPA for routine steps and rotate in a sporicidal disinfectant on a defined schedule per SOP/contamination control strategy (CCS).

2) Standards alignment (USP, ISO, Annex 1) — educational reference

Regulated cleanrooms are evaluated on process control: written procedures, trained behavior, and repeatable execution. USP <797> and USP <800> expect cleaning/disinfection to be SOP-driven (agents, technique, frequencies, PPE). EU GMP Annex 1 emphasizes contamination control strategy (CCS), validated cleaning/disinfection, and disciplined operator practices in Grade A/B environments. ISO cleanroom operations guidance supports an operations control program covering personnel practices, cleaning, and material movement.

Key compliance reality: standards do not mandate a specific alcohol brand. Your facility must select, validate, document, and train on product choice, wipe technique, and any wet-contact expectations used in your areas.

3) 1-gallon format = dispensing discipline (define this in SOP)

Bulk sterile alcohol improves throughput—but can create audit risk if teams improvise dispensing. Strong programs define how TX3290 is dispensed (to wipers, into qualified bottles, or via qualified dispensing tools), and prevent process drift (top-offs, mixed lots, missing expiration tracking).

Controls to include (common audit-grade practices)
  • Qualified containers only: if transferring, use cleanroom-appropriate bottles/triggers rated for alcohol and approved by your site.
  • No “top-off” behavior: do not refill partially used bottles unless your SOP allows it under validated controls.
  • Traceability: preserve lot/expiration linkage from source bottle to point-of-use containers (labels/logs per SOP).
  • Staged de-bagging: remove outer packaging layers in the correct airlock/transition locations per SOP before entering cleaner zones.
  • Change-out rules: define triggers (time-based, leaving the room, exterior contamination, cap left open, dispenser failure).

4) Best-practice use (repeatability beats “more alcohol”)

Wipe method that holds up in critical environments
  • Spray/pour-to-wipe control: wet the sterile wiper (damp, not dripping) to reduce overspray/aerosolization near airflow paths.
  • One direction + overlap: straight-line strokes with overlap; rotate to a fresh wipe face frequently to prevent re-deposition.
  • Clean-to-less-clean sequencing: top-to-bottom and inside-to-outside patterns reduce cross-contamination.
  • Wet-contact expectation: if your SOP requires a wet-contact time, keep surfaces visibly wet for that duration (re-wet as needed).

5) Suggested system pairings (validated-program logic)

Sterile alcohol performance is inseparable from the wiper and PPE system. Final selection must match your ISO class, residue limits, and SOP validation.

6) Practical selection notes (why teams choose gallon bulk)

  • Fewer change-outs: supports high-consumption areas and reduces mid-shift substitutions.
  • Lot continuity: easier to standardize a work period on fewer lots for investigation-ready traceability.
  • Economy: bulk packaging typically lowers cost-per-ounce vs. trigger sprays when controlled dispensing is already in place.

7) Safety and handling (non-negotiables)

Flammability + SDS control

70% IPA is a highly flammable liquid and vapor. Control ignition sources, use appropriate ventilation, and align receiving/handling controls with your EHS program. Always refer to the current SDS/TDS and your internal SOP for storage, spill response, and disposal.

Always follow manufacturer instructions and the current SDS/TDS.
