Hollowware and sterilisation boxes Instrument Sterilization Box
A lidded stainless-steel box with a perforated lid that lets steam reach a fixed instrument set during autoclaving and vents moisture during drying.
What it is
A rectangular lidded stainless-steel container that holds, sterilises, transports and stores surgical or dental instruments. It is a deep rectangular pan with plain, unperforated side walls and a lift-off telescoping lid. The lid's recessed central panel is perforated with a staggered grid of round holes, which let steam reach the contents and let moisture escape during drying. The lid seats over the rim of the base; there is no latch, clasp or hinge.
Sterile-processing technicians, theatre nurses, dental assistants and clinicians.

Material and quality
| Line | Steel | Origin | Finish | Inspection |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clinical | AISI 202 | Pakistani or Taiwanese | Bright / mirror polish | Every piece inspected: finish and hand-finishing, polish, edges, size, shine and overall structure, and the buyer's own design or logo where one is specified. Anything that does not meet the specification is corrected rather than passed. |
| Premium and Executive | AISI 304 | German or Japanese | Bright / mirror polish | Every piece inspected: finish and hand-finishing, polish, edges, size, shine and overall structure, and the buyer's own design or logo where one is specified. Anything that does not meet the specification is corrected rather than passed. |
This is the steel each line is made from as standard. A different origin can be supplied on request (a lower grade in Japanese steel, for example), agreed on your order.
Both grades are stainless steel, and the line you order is what sets which one you get: AISI 202 on a Clinical order, AISI 304 on a Premium or Executive one. Hollowware starts at Clinical: there is no Economy line in these two grades. AISI 304 resists corrosion better. Neither is hardened by heat treatment, so neither is harder than the instrument grades.
Premium is the line where the choice is yours: 420 or 440C, agreed on your order. Economy is always 410 and Executive is always 440C. Those three are the instrument steels. Hollowware and sterilisation containers are made in AISI 202 on a Clinical order and AISI 304 on a Premium or Executive one, and they are not offered in the Economy line at all, which is the section above.
True of every order
Instruments are marked to the buyer's requirement (TGI, unmarked, or the buyer's own brand), agreed on the order.
Customised packaging is part of what TGI supplies. Your own printed boxes, your labels, your brand on the pack, or plain export packing, whichever your market needs. The packing for your order is agreed with you and confirmed on the order.
Manufactured under the quality management system covered by TGI's ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 13485:2016 certificates. Certificate numbers and the issuer's registry are on the certification page. Open the certificates
Every batch of steel is ordered to a specified grade and arrives with the mill's own certificate, which identifies the mill and states the grade. TGI checks the material at the factory against its own requirement before it goes into production. That check is TGI's own inspection, not an independent laboratory test.
TGI manufactures in its own factory in Sialkot and also supplies articles made by contracted partner workshops, to TGI's specification. Which applies to a given article is confirmed on your order.
One-year guarantee on Premium and Executive tier instruments, hollowware and sterilisation containers: any technical manufacturing defect, including material faults and rust, is replaced free of charge. Damage from handling or accidents is not covered. The year runs from the day the goods leave Sialkot.

Damage that happened after the goods left Sialkot is a claim against your carrier. The video of your parcel at the shipping office is sent to you before shipment and is the evidence that claim needs.
