Intocan Safety® 3

Safety taken one step further

Safety meets intuitive handling: Since 1962 we have constantly raised the bar in safe patient access. 

With Introcan Safety® 3 we advanced our design concept, integrating new safety features: more protection from blood exposure and needlestick injuries come along with higher control and convenience. Both patients and clinicians will benefit.
