Sorry to be a bit stubborn..but to me "sanitary material" usually means that used in Delivery Suites for women. All the references I see which use this phrase are talking about women's needs or other basic hygiene materials.

Note from asker:
Thanks for your note, David. Every time I head "sanitary", I think "clean", as in "sanitary napkins", etc. I went with the consensus, but I think that I'll alter my own glossary thanks to you!
