HTM 2030 is a partially archived document with CFPP 01-01 now being applicable to the Acute Healthcare Sector and HTM 01-05 now being applicable to Primary Healthcare Sector.

The document focuses on washer-disinfectors and the design, installation, operation and management of all types of thermal disinfection processes across several healthcare sectors.
