Benchmark Sterilization Instruments

Benchmark Sterilization Instruments provide proven and efficient sterilization performance in both traditional autoclave formats and modern microsterilizer designs. Engineered for safety, convenience, and space efficiency, these instruments deliver dependable sterilization results for laboratories of all sizes.

The BactiZapper™ TILT Series features an innovative, adjustable head design that allows the sterilizer to tilt up or down within a 55° range. This flexibility enhances accessibility and user comfort, making it ideal for quick and consistent sterilization of small metal instruments such as loops, needles, and forceps—without the use of open flames.

The Benchmark Bioclave autoclaves feature surprisingly large stainless steel chambers despite their compact benchtop footprints. Designed to accommodate a wide range of laboratory items—including liquids, glassware, instruments, and plasticware—these autoclaves combine efficiency with robust safety systems. Each model includes both mechanical and electrical interlocks to prevent door opening until internal pressure has safely reached zero PSI.

With their durable construction, precise temperature control, and compact design, Benchmark sterilization instruments provide reliable performance for research, clinical, and industrial environments where consistent sterilization is critical.
