[26th February 2025 ] – Southland Filtration, a leader in industrial and commercial water treatment solutions, has launched the PuROtherm MICRO, an innovative water purification system designed to meet the updated Australian Standard AS5369:2023 for the reprocessing of reusable medical devices in Central Sterile Services Departments (CSSD). This new product is a direct response to recent regulatory changes, ensuring that day hospitals, dental clinics, and other small healthcare facilities can now comply with the latest standards efficiently and cost-effectively.
Designed and manufactured in Australia, the PuROtherm MICRO delivers the performance of larger reverse osmosis (RO) systems in a compact, space-saving footprint. Its automatic thermal disinfection feature ensures superior hygiene by reducing bacterial contamination without manual intervention. With its near-silent operation and plug-and-play design, it’s an ideal solution for facilities requiring high-purity water for CSSD applications while maximising operational efficiency.
“The recent changes to AS5369:2023 highlight the need for improved water quality in sterilisation processes, even for smaller healthcare facilities,” said Matthew Cox, CEO of Southland Filtration. “We saw this as an opportunity to develop a purpose-built solution that makes compliance accessible, efficient, and reliable. The PuROtherm MICRO is a testament to our commitment to innovation and Australian manufacturing.”
James Cox, Head of Production at Southland Filtration, added, “We engineered the PuROtherm MICRO to combine efficiency, performance, and ease of use. This is more than just a water purification system—it’s a practical solution that helps small healthcare facilities meet compliance requirements without overhauling their existing infrastructure.”
The PuROtherm MICRO is now available. For more information, please visit the PuROtherm MICRO product page.
