New Product Release: Dialysis Machine-Specific Sodium Hypochlorite-Based Cleaning and Disinfecting Agent "Gia Rapid SH-V"

Saraya Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka / President: Yusuke Saraya) is pleased to announce the launch of "Gia Rapid SH-V," a sodium hypochlorite-based cleaning and disinfecting agent specifically for dialysis machines, on Wednesday, April 1, 2026.

Dialysis machines and piping used in dialysis therapy can accumulate not only contaminants from water and the environment but also organic and microbial contamination from patients, as well as calcium carbonate scale from dialysate. Ensuring the purity of dialysis water and dialysate is directly linked to the health of patients undergoing dialysis treatment, therefore proper cleaning and disinfection of dialysis machines and piping are required.

"Gia Rapid SH-V" is a sodium hypochlorite-based cleaning and disinfecting agent that effectively removes organic and microbial contamination adhering to dialysis machines and piping. It contains a rust-inhibiting component, improving the rust prevention performance of the metal parts of dialysis machines. Furthermore, it is formulated with an additive that suppresses the adhesion of calcium carbonate scale, which can cause blockages in filters and piping, thereby enhancing its overall performance.

Maintaining the condition of dialysis machine components and piping, and operating the dialysis machine in a safe state, contributes to improved operational efficiency and prevention of problems for medical institutions.

Product Features

• Cleaning Performance: Effectively removes organic and microbial contamination adhering to dialysis machines and piping.

[Even more effective when used in combination! Saraya's lineup of cleaning and disinfecting agents for dialysis machines]

Saraya offers "Sarativ," a peracetic acid-based cleaning and disinfecting agent, and "Gia Rapid," a sodium hypochlorite-based cleaning and disinfecting agent, as specialized cleaning agents for dialysis machines.

By using "Sarativ" and "Gia Rapid" in combination, organic contamination, microbial contamination, and calcium carbonate scale adhering to dialysis machines and piping can be effectively removed.

Furthermore, "Sarativ" uses gray and "Gia Rapid" uses yellow as brand colors, allowing for differentiation by name and package design. This helps prevent mix-ups between peracetic acid and sodium hypochlorite, contributing to the prevention of accidents such as chlorine gas generation caused by incorrect pouring of cleaning agents, which have been increasing in recent years.

[Comprehensive Support for Infection Control in Dialysis Facilities]
In addition to cleaning and disinfecting agents for dialysis machines, Saraya offers a wide range of infection control products necessary for dialysis facilities, including hand hygiene products, environmental disinfecting wipes, personal protective equipment, and needle disposal boxes. Furthermore, we provide skincare products suitable for dialysis patients, such as rinse-free body soaps and foot wipes. To protect the safety of both medical professionals and patients, we comprehensively support infection control in dialysis facilities through our extensive product lineup and information dissemination.
