Welcome to the new website of the European Forum for Hospital Sterile Supply. This is a website linking the official national/regional societies of the countries listed on the homepage. We hope the number of countries will increase to a much larger number from all over Europe in time.

The decision to have this website has been under discussion for some time and was finally agreed on May 18 at the World Conference in Orlando. As we are only gathering information at the moment it may take a little time to have the pages complete. There should be new information every day so please keep visiting.

We intend to have reports from events in each member country and up to date reports from the CEN working groups. We also hope to have a lively question and answer section.

With the help of sterile service personnel, industry and the many experts in the sterilisation field around Europe we hope to make this website a success.
