Delasco offers an in-house full service sharpening and repair department. Basic service includes sharpening as well as minor refinishing and minor realignment, if needed.
All surgical instruments must be sterilized and be contained in a sealed sterilization pouch with indication of a CDC-approved method of sterilization. Surgical instruments not receiving in a sealed pouch with positive indication of sterilization will be returned without processing at sender's expense.
