Product Overview
Multigate sterile cotton balls (02-223) are individually packed in sterile packs of 10, designed for single-use clinical and hospital applications where infection control compliance is essential. Each white, small-sized cotton ball meets the rigorous standards expected of medical-grade consumables, supporting safe and hygienic patient care across a wide range of procedures.
Supplied in a carton of 300 packs, these non-X-ray detectable (Non-XRD) ball swabs are manufactured by Multigate — a trusted name in Australian healthcare consumables. As a single-use product, each pack is discarded after clinical use, minimising the risk of cross-infection and eliminating the need for reprocessing.
Features & Benefits
Sterile Packaging — Each pack of 10 cotton balls is individually sterile-packaged to maintain aseptic integrity right up to the point of use.
Single-Use Design — Designated for single use only in accordance with ISO 15223 standards, ensuring the highest level of infection control and patient safety.
Non-X-Ray Detectable (Non-XRD) — These cotton balls are non-X-ray detectable, suitable for surface and wound care applications where radiopaque materials are not required.
Small Size, White Colour — Compact small-sized white cotton balls ideal for precise application of antiseptics, cleansing agents, or wound care products in clinical settings.
High-Volume Carton Supply — Available in cartons of 300 packs, making them well-suited for hospitals, surgical centres, and clinical facilities with high-volume consumable demands.
Multigate Quality Assurance — Manufactured by Multigate Medical Products, a reputable Australian supplier of sponges, swabs, and gauze products.
Packaging Integrity Requirement — As with all sterile items, the integrity of each pack must be checked before use — damaged packaging means the product can no longer be considered sterile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Each sterile pack contains 10 cotton balls. A full carton contains 300 packs, making it a practical bulk supply option for clinical and hospital settings.
No. These are designated single-use products in accordance with ISO 15223. Once clinical use has finished on the patient, the pack and its contents must be placed in the appropriate waste container. Multigate does not supply reprocessing instructions for any single-use labelled products.
Non-X-Ray Detectable (Non-XRD) means these cotton balls do not contain radiopaque materials and will not appear on X-ray imaging. They are intended for external clinical use where X-ray visibility is not required.
Before use, visually inspect the packaging for any signs of damage, tears, punctures, or compromise. If the packaging is damaged in any way, the product can no longer be considered sterile and should not be used. Items remaining from an opened pack that were not used should also be treated as contaminated from an infection control perspective.
The Multigate sterile cotton balls (Pack of 10) can be re-ordered using code 02-223. They are categorised under Multigate's Sponges, Swabs & Gauze range.
