About the Manufacturer: 

Texwipe (an ITW company) differentiates itself in cleanroom wiping by treating the wiper as an engineered product, not a commodity consumable. With Vertex®, Texwipe describes an integrated, hands-free micro-environment where the system cleans and converts sterile wipers with real-time process monitoring and alarms for critical parameters—aimed at producing consistent cleanroom wipers from lot to lot.

 

For Sterile Vertex pre-wetted formats, Texwipe pairs sealed-edge construction, gamma irradiation (ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137), and ongoing microbial/endotoxin verification (including Agarose Overlay and LAL testing) with case-level documentation (Certificates of Processing and Compliance) to support sterile program controls. SOSCleanroom (SOS) supports that discipline with a close working relationship focused on continuity of supply, clean documentation handoff (certs, lot traceability), and practical application support—so customers can standardize sterile pre-wetted wiping materials with predictable performance while maintaining procurement reliability and audit readiness.

TX3049P Features:
  • 100% continuous-filament polyester knit fabric; high sorption capacity and soft feel
  • Sealed-edge construction to help reduce particle and fiber release
  • Pre-wetted with 70% USP-Grade IPA / 30% USP Purified Water
  • Triple-bagged packaging for controlled introduction
  • Gamma irradiated in accordance with ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137
  • Certificates of Processing and Compliance attached to each case
  • Quarterly microbial testing by Agarose Overlay and Limulus Amebocyte Lysate (LAL) endotoxin testing
TX3049P Benefits:
  • Pre-wetted control: Consistent wetness per wipe supports repeatable wipe-downs while reducing bulk solvent handling and squirt-bottle variability.
  • Spill-response efficiency: High sorptive capacity helps reduce the number of wipers needed for spill control (process-dependent).
  • Delicate-surface friendly: Soft feel supports use on delicate surfaces and precision applications.
  • Sterile assurance: Meets Sterility Assurance Level of 10-6 and confirms radiation dose met specified dose at time of receiving.
  • Endotoxin control support: Meets FDA guideline for medical device bacterial endotoxin limit of not more than 20 EU/device.
Common Applications:
  • Sterile wipe-downs of benches, carts, tools, equipment exteriors, and fixtures in aseptic workflows
  • Pre- and post-step wipe-downs where 70% IPA is specified for routine disinfection and cleaning
  • Spill pickup of process fluids where sterile materials are required by SOP
  • Final wipe-down of critical surfaces prior to sterile staging, filling, or packaging activities
  • Cleaning steps requiring sealed-edge control to reduce fray-related risk during pressure wiping
Best-Practice Use:
  • Open-and-go sterile technique: Bring only the needed inner bag into the controlled area per your gowning/material transfer SOP; keep unused wipes sealed to protect sterility.
  • Fold for control: Fold into quarters to create multiple clean faces; rotate faces instead of re-wiping with a loaded surface.
  • Wipe pattern: Use straight-line strokes (top-to-bottom or left-to-right) to avoid re-depositing contamination.
  • Contact time discipline: If your 70% IPA disinfection step requires a minimum wet contact time, keep the surface visibly wet for the validated duration (site SOP governs).
  • Change-out triggers: Replace the wiper when the face becomes visibly soiled, tacky, or begins leaving residue/streaks.
Selection Notes (TX3049P vs. Other Options)
  • TX3049P vs. TX3049 (dry): Choose TX3049P when you want standardized wetness and reduced solvent handling; choose TX3049 dry when your SOP requires custom wetting chemistry or you want to control wet-out at point-of-use.
  • TX3049P vs. TX3042P (12" x 12"): Both are sterile Vertex pre-wetted 70% IPA formats; size up to 12" x 12" when coverage per wipe matters, and stay with 9" x 9" for tighter work areas and better hand control.
  • Sealed edge vs. laser edge alternatives: If your process prioritizes a different edge construction for abrasion, linting risk, or surface feel, compare Vertex sealed-edge and Vertex laser-edge options within your qualification plan.

ISO 14644 Operations Control Texwipe Vertex® (Sterile) Polyester / Sealed Edge / Pre-wetted 70% IPA Sterile Surface Prep & Routine Wipe-Down 9" x 9" Lot Traceability
Texwipe TX3049P Sterile Vertex® 9" x 9" Polyester Sealed-Edge Wiper (Pre-Wetted 70% IPA) — sealed-edge control with standardized IPA wetness for repeatable sterile wipe-downs

Texwipe TX3049P Sterile Vertex® is a sterile, 9" x 9" polyester cleanroom wiper with a sealed edge, supplied pre-wetted with 70% IPA to support consistent, operator-repeatable damp-film wiping in controlled and aseptic workflows. Pre-wetted formats are commonly selected to reduce variability associated with manual wetting (over-wetting, pooling, and inconsistent coverage), particularly in routine wipe-down programs performed across shifts. The sealed edge provides an additional control at the wipe perimeter, which can be useful when cleaning near critical interfaces where loose edge fibers or uncontrolled fraying are a concern. As with all sterile wipe systems, outcomes depend on controlled introduction into the classified area, maintaining package integrity, one-pass/one-face technique, and defined change-out triggers. Final suitability should be confirmed against current manufacturer documentation and your internal limits for residues, surface quality, and chemistry compatibility.

Operations takeaway: TX3049P supports ISO-aligned operations control by combining standardized IPA wetness with sealed-edge perimeter control. Keep primary packaging closed between uses to limit solvent loss and define discard triggers tied to smear risk, saturation, and zone boundaries.

ISO-first context: where wipers fit in cleanroom operations control

ISO 14644-5:2025 frames cleanroom performance around a documented Operations Control Programme (OCP) that governs personnel practices, material transfer, cleaning, maintenance, and monitoring. Wipers belong in that system because the wipe itself, the chemistry, and the technique directly affect residues, particles, and recontamination risk. If you clean parts, fixtures, tools, or work surfaces inside an ISO-class controlled environment, the method should be written, trained, and repeatable.

Control point: Most “wiper failures” are technique failures—over-wetting, re-wiping with a loaded face, backtracking into clean areas, or using a wiper beyond its change-out point.

What this wiper is designed to do (typical use cases)
  • Routine sterile wipe-down of benches, carts, and equipment touch points where controlled wetness improves repeatability versus manual wetting.
  • Controlled surface preparation using pre-wetted 70% IPA for smooth, non-product-contact surfaces (as written in your SOP).
  • Wipe-down during aseptic interventions where sterility, package control, and disciplined change-outs are required.
  • Cleaning near critical interfaces where sealed-edge construction supports controlled perimeter performance (validate on sensitive surfaces as needed).
  • Standardized wipe-down of tools and fixtures introduced into a controlled area, following material transfer and staging rules.

Method note: Pre-wetted IPA wipes reduce wetting variability, but the SOP still must define stroke pattern, contact expectations, and discard triggers. If streaking is observed, reduce pressure and confirm one-face-per-pass discipline. For confined geometries, define the swab method separately (one swab, one area; no re-dipping).

Best-practice use (reduce residues, particles, and rework)
  1. Control introduction: bring wipes into the cleanroom per your OCP rules (outer packaging removal, staging, and storage).
  2. Use clean-to-less-clean flow: wipe from the cleanest zone to the dirtiest zone; do not backtrack.
  3. Fold for control: fold to create multiple clean faces; use one face per pass, then refold.
  4. Damp-film technique: if using solvent, wet to a controlled damp state (not dripping).
  5. Straight-line strokes: use consistent pressure and unidirectional strokes; avoid circular scrubbing.
  6. Change-out triggers: discard when loaded, smeary, tacky, saturated, or when surface-quality requirements are at risk.

Method standardization tip: If outcomes differ by operator, lock four variables in the SOP: wetness target, stroke count, fold pattern, and change-out point.

Misuse controls & when not to use
  • If sterility is required: do not substitute a non-sterile wipe for sterile workflows.
  • If ultra-low residues/ions are gating: confirm requirements against current manufacturer documentation and your internal limits.
  • If the surface is easily scratched: validate on delicate finishes; avoid excessive pressure.
  • If chemistry is aggressive: verify compatibility and safety for solvents/cleaners; do not assume universal compatibility.
Recommended cleanroom glove pairing (ISO-aligned)

For ISO-controlled wiping applications, pair this cleanroom wipe with a cleanroom-processed, low-particle nitrile glove to reduce contamination transfer during handling and routine wipe-downs.

Glove discipline: Change gloves when contaminated, solvent-wet, torn, or after contacting non-controlled surfaces. Treat gloves as part of the wipe system.

Recommended sterile swab pairing (detail cleaning & confined geometries)

For ports, crevices, and recessed features where a wiper cannot maintain contact control, use a sterile cleanroom swab to keep the cleaning method consistent and to reduce accidental contact with critical surfaces.

Swab discipline: Use a strict “one swab, one area” approach for sterile workflows. Do not re-dip; discard immediately if the tip is overloaded or if the swab contacts non-sterile surfaces.
