Infection Control

Infection control in Lebanon — what DMS supplies

Infection prevention is not a category — it is the foundation that every other clinical specialty is built on. Surface disinfectants, instrument-reprocessing solutions, sterilization indicators, hand-hygiene products, and the PPE that protects clinical teams: these are the products a dental practice goes through every working hour. DMS’s infection-control catalog is the highest-volume part of our daily order flow, and the catalog is structured around the products Lebanon’s practices specify by brand.

Metrex — the CaviWipes family

The anchor partnership in the DMS infection-control catalog is with Metrex — the Romulus, Michigan-based infection-prevention specialist (founded 1985, part of the Envista family). DMS has distributed Metrex products in Lebanon since 2014. The Metrex catalog at the Beirut warehouse covers:

• CaviWipes 2.0 — the 2026 Dental Advisor honoree in the Alcohol-Based Surface Disinfectant category, frequently stocked at clinic-scale promotional pricing (Buy 10 Get 1 Free)
• CaviWipes HP — hydrogen peroxide-based wipes for higher-level surface disinfection
• CaviWipes Bleach for specific cleaning protocols
• CaviCide and CaviCide HP spray-and-wipe surface disinfectants
• The Metrex EmPower instrument-reprocessing line for ultrasonic-cleaner and manual-cleaning protocols
• The Metrex hand-hygiene range

Metrex products are used in over 100,000 healthcare facilities worldwide — the infection-prevention category at DMS is one of the strongest third-party-credibility pillars in the catalog.

Cranberry — gloves, masks, and PPE

The PPE category at DMS is anchored by Cranberry — the California-based PPE manufacturer known among clinicians for the comfort, fit, and tactile sensitivity of its nitrile gloves. The Cranberry catalog at DMS includes:

• Cranberry Carbon black-nitrile gloves favored for high-visibility procedures
• The new Bio Nitrile biodegradable nitrile line for clinics tracking environmental footprint
• Cranberry latex gloves
• The Cranberry mask range (procedure, surgical, and high-filtration masks)
• Cranberry dental dams

Sterilization, autoclaves, and infection-control accessories

Beyond the surface-disinfection and PPE core, the DMS infection-control catalog reaches into the sterilization and infection-prevention infrastructure that every practice depends on:

• Autoclave sterilization indicators and chemical/biological monitoring
• Sterilization pouches and roll-stock
• Ultrasonic-cleaner solutions and enzymatic detergents
• Surface-protection barriers and tray covers
• Hand sanitizers and surgical hand-prep antiseptics

The Medistock French distributor of single-use dental devices contributes the higher-volume disposable layer of the infection-control catalog at DMS.
