Product description
The Alixor Cotton Zig Zag—also known as zig-zag cotton, fan-fold cotton, or interleaved absorbent cotton—is a specialist medical textile product designed to address the hygiene and efficiency limitations of conventional cotton rolls.
Instead of being wound into a continuous roll, the cotton is layered in a concertina or interleaved fold pattern within a dispensing box or pouch, allowing clinical staff to pull out individual pieces one at a time without touching the remaining stock.
This single-touch dispensing mechanism is a significant infection control advantage in busy wards, operating theatres, and out-patient clinics, where multiple clinicians may access cottonsupplies throughout the day.
By eliminating the need to unroll and cut from a shared cotton roll, zig-zag cotton substantially reduces the risk of cross-contamination between patients.
Each layer of Alixor Cotton Zig Zag is manufactured from 100% bleachedabsorbent cotton, processed to be free of residual hydrogen peroxide and optical brighteners.
The zig-zag structure ensures each piece separates cleanly at a consistent size, giving clinical staff precise, reproducible cotton squares or rectangles that require no further cutting or tearing.
Common applications include antiseptic and disinfectant application before injections or cannula insertion, wound surface cleansing, diagnostic skin tests, laboratory specimen handling, and dental moisture control.
Its compatibility with all standard disinfectants—including alcohol, betadine, and chlorhexidine—makes it universally applicable across clinical departments.
Alixor Cotton Zig Zag is available in standard piece sizes of 40×40 mm, 50×50 mm, and custom dimensions, supplied in convenient dispenser boxes of 500 to 1000 pieces. Bulk carton packing is available for institutional procurement and export orders.
