Why SciCan products?

Infection control is not new, but governments and regulatory bodies around the world are recognizing its importance and driving new changes in the industry. The demand for infection control solutions is growing in unprecedented ways, and we’re ready to grow with it. History of growth

COLTENE SciCan developed the ground-breaking STATIM Cassette Autoclave in the late 1980s. Back when autoclaves could take as much as 45 minutes to sterilize dental equipment, the STATIM® was doing it in 6 minutes. In 1992, a story aired on a popular news program about a dentist who allegedly passed the AIDS virus to five of his patients through an infected dental handpiece. That’s when dentists began using sterilizers to process their instruments after every patient. Demand for a fast sterilizer grew exponentially and today you’ll find STATIMs in dental offices around the world.
