How To Clean the Steel Foot File
This stainless-steel foot file is fully autoclavable for optimal hygiene maintenance. Using an autoclave, you can ensure the successful eradication of any germs or bacteria left on the surface of the material to significantly reduce contamination risks and ensure hygienic usage. This is especially useful in clinical podiatry settings, where the same file may come into contact with multiple sets of feet.
It's important to ensure that this file is thoroughly cleaned after every use, especially if it is being used for multiple people. For a quicker but still effective clean, stainless-steel materials can be sanitised using hot water and a detergent.
