SteraMist iHP Corporate Service is prepared for rapid deployment, delivering decontamination fogging services for a variety of applications, such as emergency containment, routine shutdowns, facility decommissioning, disaster remediation, and mold spore elimination.
SteraMist iHP technology provides reliable and patented decontamination without the associated damage or delays that come with many conventional decontamination services. iHP service prioritizes facility recovery, ensuring a speedy return to full operational capacity.
Pre-Deployment Preparation
Before iHP Corporate Service deployment, SteraMist works directly with customers to determine and record individual operational objectives. A customized decontamination plan will be developed for each facility to satisfy requirements, including GMP compliance and ISO cleanroom regulations.
The service team is highly certified and able to manage all operational prerequisites, including HVAC shutdowns, pre-service microbial sampling, restricted access protocols, and adequate air turnover rates, guaranteeing complete preparation for a compliant and streamlined decontamination process according to the facility’s schedule.
Executing iHP Decontamination Fogging Service
Before deployment, SteraMist maintains consistent communication through a Project Lead to handle any questions, perform site evaluations, schedule/reschedule, communicate logistics, and manage on-site preparation and documentation. The Safety Officer determines PPE requirements, manages customer requests, and conducts site inspections for hazards and project-related risks.
The optimal number of iHP Corporate Service members required is determined based on the scale of the facility. Certified TOMI technicians will then install validation strips, if requested, and execute iHP decontamination fogging service via a protocol specifically tailored to facility requirements.
In contrast to most decontamination fogging service methods, SteraMist does not depend on saturation to achieve a 6-log or greater reduction of Geobacillus stearothermophilus. The protocols developed will factor in room volume, guaranteeing full spatial coverage.
Following treatment, the technician monitors hydrogen peroxide levels to determine the earliest possible time for re-entry. The complete iHP process prioritizes environmental integrity and risk mitigation in all regulated environments.
“We previously worked with an alternate company for decontamination, but over time, we observed damage to the paint on our walls and various other areas within our facility, including critical equipment. SteraMist iHP Corporate Service managed to decontaminate our entire facility quickly without causing harm to the infrastructure or our sensitive equipment. The engineers were also skilled, efficient, and friendly.” The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Post-Deployment Support and Reporting
After the decontamination fogging treatment is complete, the SteraMist equipment will be disassembled, ensuring an immediate return to normal facility operations. Customers receive validated results, including biological indicators verifying at least a 6-log reduction on Geobacillus stearothermophilus, as well as documentation demonstrating adherence to USP 1072, FDA guidelines, GMP, ISO standards, and other regulatory frameworks.
Follow-up iHP fogging treatments can be scheduled as required to maintain sterilization objectives. As a corrosion-free decontamination method, SteraMist removes microbial risks while preventing surface damage, ensuring efficient results.
