Polyurethane sampling sponge with stick (laser-cut sampling bag)
- Sterility
Gamma-ray sterilization by ionization at 20 Kilograys minimum. Sterility of each product batch verified by an external COFRAC-certified laboratory - Sponge quality
High-quality cellulose sponge suitable for Salmonella and Listeria testing. Once in the laboratory, the Sodibox sponge enables optimal release of germs in the pre-enrichment phase. - Detachable handle with clamp system Made in France Ergonomic handle equipped with a clamp system for easy and secure sponge separation after sampling. Integrated thumb guard to prevent contact with sponge. Easy access to difficult areas (drains, pipes, nooks and crannies).
- Thinners
Our thinners are manufactured to ISO11133 standards. - Bag quality
Our sampling bags are ideally suited to blending in mills, with easy opening and resealing to ensure sample integrity throughout transport.

-
Easy to separate and handle The clamp allows easy separation of the sponge from the handle after sampling. Saves time and reduces tedious handling, particularly important in environments where many samples need to be taken quickly.
-
Reduced risk of contamination Simplified separation of the sponge from the handle using pliers minimizes the risk of cross-contamination, as the user does not need to break the handle, which could potentially introduce external contaminants or cause unwanted splashes.
-
Safety and comfort The gripper system is safer and more ergonomic. Unlike handles that have to be broken off, there’s no risk of accidents, cuts or splinters, especially with frequent use.
-
Sample integrity The clamp separation method helps to maintain sample integrity. If the handle is broken, this can introduce external particles into the sample, compromising the accuracy of results.
-
Integrated thumb guard A thumb guard prevents contact with the sponge during handling.
