A Century of Proven Experience
Our legacy of innovation began in 1890 in Erie, Pennsylvania, when the American Sterilizer Company pioneered steam sterilization technologies that would shape the future of infection prevention.
- In the 1980s, after a series of mergers and acquisitions, STERIS evolved to include the STERIS Life Sciences division we know today. That same decade, we developed the first GMP-compliant component sterilizer and launched CIP 100™ and CIP 200™, industry-leading cleaning agents for clean-in-place systems.
- In 1990, STERIS introduced the first ready-to-use, peracetic acid-based technology for cleanroom disinfection. This decade also brought the invention of the first vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP) decontamination system, revolutionizing biodecontamination in aseptic environments.
- Shortly after, we released the ProKlenz™ line of detergents and engineered the first continuous effluent decontamination system, enhancing biosafety in high-containment facilities.
- In the 2010s, STERIS launched Vesta-Syde™ SQ, the first globally compliant pharmaceutical disinfectant, designed to meet international regulatory standards across markets.
STERIS has been leading the industry in contamination control for decades, from steam sterilization to the latest in cleanroom technologies. We are founded in science, committed to service and driven by a relentless pursuit to keep your operations running smoothly.
