Frequently Asked Questions
Are these surgical skin markers sterile?
Yes. Each marker is individually wrapped in a sterile pack and is intended for single use only, making it suitable for sterile theatre and clinical environments.
Is this product CE-MDR certified?
Yes. This sterile surgical skin marker carries CE certification under EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR 2017/745), confirming it meets the safety, performance, and quality standards required for medical devices placed on the EU and UK markets.
What does the Regular tip look like?
The Regular tip delivers a medium-width line suitable for general pre-operative marking, wound border tracing, and surgical field identification. It is the most commonly used tip size in clinical practice.
Is the ink alcohol-resistant?
Yes. The ink is formulated to resist skin preparation solutions including alcohol-based preps, so markings remain visible during and after skin preparation.
Does the pack include a ruler?
Yes. Each individually wrapped sterile pack includes a sterile ruler for accurate pre-procedure measurement and marking.
Are these markers suitable for use in operating theatres?
Yes. The single-use sterile design meets the requirements for use in theatre and clinical environments in line with standard infection prevention and control protocols.
Can I order in bulk for my clinic or practice?
Yes. Charles Medical supplies GP surgeries, aesthetic clinics, and NHS procurement teams with bulk orders of surgical consumables. Contact us directly for volume pricing and account terms.
What is the difference between a sterile and non-sterile skin marker?
A sterile skin marker is individually wrapped in a validated sterile pack, making it safe for use in theatre and on pre-operative skin. Non-sterile markers are suitable for general clinical use but should not be used in sterile fields. For theatre and surgical use, always use a sterile single-use marker.
How do I remove skin marker ink after a procedure?
Markings can be removed using an alcohol swab, isopropyl alcohol wipe, or soap and water. The ink is designed to be long-lasting during procedures but is easily removed after.
