Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Nature of Operations. On March 28, 2019, STERIS plc, a public limited company organized under the laws of England and Wales (“STERIS UK”), completed a redomiciliation from the United Kingdom to Ireland (the “Redomiciliation”). The Redomiciliation was achieved through the insertion of a new Irish public limited holding company (“STERIS Ireland”) on top of STERIS UK pursuant to a court-approved scheme of arrangement under English law (the “Scheme”). Following the Scheme effectiveness, STERIS UK was re-registered as a private limited company with the name STERIS Limited, and STERIS Emerald IE Limited, a company established in Ireland and a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of STERIS Ireland, was interposed as the direct parent company of STERIS UK. STERIS plc is a leading provider of infection prevention and other procedural products and services. We offer our Customers a unique mix of innovative consumable products, such as detergents, gastrointestinal ("GI") endoscopy accessories, barrier product solutions, and other products and services, including: equipment installation and maintenance, microbial reduction of medical devices, instrument and scope repair solutions, laboratory testing services, on-site and off-site reprocessing, and capital equipment products, such as sterilizers and surgical tables, and connectivity solutions such as operating room (“OR”) integration. We operate and report in three reportable business segments: Healthcare, Life Sciences, and Applied Sterilization Technologies. We describe our business segments in Note 11 to our consolidated financial statements titled, "Business Segment Information." Our fiscal year ends on March 31. References in this Annual Report to a particular "year," "fiscal," "fiscal year," or "year-end" mean our fiscal year. The significant accounting policies applied in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company are summarized below. Principles of Consolidation. We use the consolidation method to report our investment in our subsidiaries. Therefore, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. We eliminate inter-company accounts and transactions when we consolidate these accounts. Investments in equity of unconsolidated affiliates, over which the Company has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating polices, are accounted for primarily using the equity method. These investments are immaterial to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. Use of Estimates. We make certain estimates and assumptions when preparing financial statements according to U.S. GAAP that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the financial statement dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. These estimates and assumptions involve judgments with respect to many factors that are difficult to predict and are beyond our control. Actual results could be materially different from these estimates. We revise the estimates and assumptions as new information becomes available. Cash Equivalents and Supplemental Cash Flow Information. Cash equivalents are all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. We invest our excess cash in short-term instruments including money market funds and time deposits with major banks and financial institutions. We select investments in accordance with the criteria established in our investment policy. Our investment policy specifies, among other things, maturity, credit quality and concentration restrictions with the objective of preserving capital and maintaining adequate liquidity. Information supplementing our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows is as follows: Years Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Cash paid during the year for: Interest $ 38,021 $ 44,118 $ 48,663 Income taxes 92,462 64,668 85,629 Cash received during the year for income tax refunds 4,378 2,189 7,747 Revenue Recognition and Associated Liabilities. We adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and the subsequently issued amendments on April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach to contracts that were not completed as of April 1, 2018. Under this standard, certain capital equipment contracts are comprised of a single performance obligation, resulting in the deferral of the corresponding capital equipment revenue and cost of revenues until installation is complete. Previously, these capital equipment revenues and cost of revenues were recognized based upon shipping terms. We recorded a cumulative effect adjustment in the beginning of fiscal 2019 to Retained earnings of $5,637, based on the terms and conditions for certain open capital equipment contracts as of March 31, 2018. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract are satisfied and control of the promised products or services have transferred to the Customer. Revenues are measured at the amount of consideration that we expect to be paid in exchange for the products or services. Product revenue is recognized when control passes to the Customer, which is generally based on contract or shipping terms. Service revenue is recognized when the Customer benefits from the service, which occurs either upon completion of the service or as it is provided to the Customer. Our Customers include end users as well as dealers and distributors who market and sell our products. Our revenue is not contingent upon resale by the dealer or distributor, and we have no further obligations related to bringing about resale. Our standard return and restocking fee policies are applied to sales of products. Shipping and handling costs charged to Customers are included in Product revenues. The associated expenses are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in Cost of revenues. Revenues are reported net of sales and value-added taxes collected from Customers. We have individual Customer contracts that offer discounted pricing. Dealers and distributors may be offered sales incentives in the form of rebates. We reduce revenue for discounts and estimated returns, rebates, and other similar allowances in the same period the related revenues are recorded. The reduction in revenue for these items is estimated based on historical experience and trend analysis to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Estimated returns are recorded gross on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In transactions that contain multiple performance obligations, such as when products, maintenance services, and other services are combined, we recognize revenue as each product is delivered or service is provided to the Customer. We allocate the total arrangement consideration to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price, which is the price for the product or service when it is sold separately. Payment terms vary by the type and location of the Customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. We do not evaluate whether the selling price contains a financing component for contracts that have a duration of less than one year. We do not capitalize sales commissions as substantially all of our sales commission programs have an amortization period of one year or less. Certain costs to fulfill a contract are capitalized and amortized over the term of the contract if they are recoverable, directly related to a contract and generate resources that we will use to fulfill the contract in the future. At March 31, 2020, assets related to costs to fulfill a contract were not material to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Note 11, titled "Business Segment Information" for disaggregation of revenue. Product Revenue Product revenues consist of revenues generated from sales of consumables and capital equipment. These contracts are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and may include a Distributor, Dealer or Group Purchasing Organization ("GPO") agreement. We recognize revenue for sales of product when control passes to the Customer, which generally occurs either when the products are shipped or when they are received by the Customer. Revenue related to certain capital equipment products is deferred until installation is complete as the capital equipment and installation are highly integrated and form a single performance obligation. Service Revenue Within our Healthcare and Life Sciences segments, service revenues consist of revenue generated from parts and labor associated with the maintenance, repair and installation of capital equipment. These contracts are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and may include a Distributor, Dealer, or GPO agreement. For maintenance, repair and installation of capital equipment, revenue is recognized upon completion of the service. Healthcare service revenues also include outsourced reprocessing services and instrument repairs. Contracts for outsourced reprocessing services are primarily based on an agreement with a Customer, ranging in length from several months to 15 years. Outsourced reprocessing services revenue is recognized ratably over the contract term using a time-based input measure, adjusted for volume and other performance metrics, to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Contracts for instrument repairs are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order, and the associated revenue is recognized upon completion of the repair. We also offer preventive maintenance and separately priced extended warranty agreements to our Customers, which require us to maintain and repair our products over the duration of the contract. Generally, these contract terms are cancellable without penalty and range from one to five years. Amounts received under these Customer contracts are initially recorded as a service liability and are recognized as service revenue ratably over the contract term using a time-based input measure. Within our Applied Sterilization Technologies segment, service revenues include contract sterilization and laboratory services. Sales contracts for contract sterilization and laboratory services are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and associated Customer agreement and revenues are generally recognized upon completion of the service. Contract Liabilities Payments received from Customers are based on invoices or billing schedules as established in contracts with Customers. Deferred revenue is recorded when payment is received in advance of performance under the contract. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue upon completion of the performance obligation, which generally occurs within one year. During fiscal 2020, we recognized revenue of $48,602 that was included in our contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. During fiscal 2019, we recognized revenue of $30,169 that was included in our contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. Refer to Note 7, titled "Additional Consolidated Balance Sheet Information" for Deferred revenue balances. Service Liabilities Payments received in advance of performance for cancelable preventative maintenance and separately priced extended warranty contracts are recorded as service liabilities. Service liabilities are recognized as revenue as performance is rendered under the contract. Prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, these amounts were included in Deferred revenues. Refer to Note 7, titled "Additional Consolidated Balance Sheet Information" for Service liability balances. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations reflect only the performance obligations related to agreements for which we have a firm commitment from a Customer to purchase, and exclude variable consideration related to unsatisfied performance obligations. With regard to products, these remaining performance obligations include capital equipment and consumable orders which have not shipped. With regard to service, these remaining performance obligations primarily include installation, certification, and outsourced reprocessing services. As of March 31, 2020, the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was approximately $940,000. We expect to recognize approximately 49% of the transaction price within one year and approximately 45% beyond one year. The remainder has yet to be scheduled for delivery. Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable are presented at their face amount, less allowances for sales returns and uncollectible accounts. Accounts receivable consist of amounts billed and currently due from Customers and amounts earned but unbilled. We generally obtain and perfect security interest in products sold in the United States when we have a concern with the Customer's risk profile. We maintain an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses in the collection of amounts owed by Customers. We estimate the allowance based on analyzing a number of factors, including amounts written off historically, Customer payment practices, and general economic conditions. We also analyze significant Customer accounts on a regular basis and record a specific allowance when we become aware of a specific Customer’s inability to pay. As a result, the related accounts receivable are reduced to an amount that we reasonably believe is collectible. We maintain an allowance for sales returns based upon known returns and estimated returns for both capital equipment and consumables. We estimate returns of capital equipment and consumables based upon recent historical experience. Inventories, net. Inventories are stated at the lower of their cost or market value. We determine cost based upon a combination of the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) and first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost methods. For inventories valued using the LIFO method, we believe that the use of the LIFO method results in a matching of current costs and revenues. Inventories valued using the LIFO method represented approximately 25.3% and 25.2% of total inventories at March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Inventory costs include material, labor, and overhead. If we had used only the FIFO method of inventory costing, inventories would have been $16,937 and $16,757 higher than those reported at March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We review inventory on an ongoing basis, considering factors such as deterioration, obsolescence, and other items. We record an allowance for estimated losses when the facts and circumstances indicate that particular inventories will not be usable. If future market conditions vary from those projected, and our estimates prove to be inaccurate, we may be required to write-down inventory values and record an adjustment to cost of revenues. Property, Plant, and Equipment. Our property, plant, and equipment consists of land and land improvements, buildings and leasehold improvements, machinery and equipment, information systems, radioisotope (cobalt-60), and construction in progress. Property, plant, and equipment are presented at cost less accumulated depreciation and depletion. We capitalize additions and improvements. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as they are incurred. Land is not depreciated and construction in progress is not depreciated until placed in service. Depreciation of most assets is computed on the cost less the estimated salvage value by using the straight-line method over the estimated remaining useful lives. Depletion of radioisotope is computed using the annual decay factor of the material, which is similar to the sum-of-the-years-digits method. We generally depreciate or deplete property, plant, and equipment over the useful lives presented in the following table: Asset Type Useful Life Land improvements 3-40 Buildings and leasehold improvements 2-50 Machinery and equipment 2-20 Information Systems 2-20 Radioisotope (cobalt-60) 20 When we sell, retire, or dispose of property, plant, and equipment, we remove the asset’s cost and accumulated depreciation from our Consolidated Balance Sheet. We recognize the net gain or loss on the sale or disposition in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the period when the transaction occurs. Interest. We capitalize interest costs incurred during the construction of long-lived assets. We capitalized interest costs of $428 and $495 for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Total interest expense for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018 was $40,279, $45,015, and $50,629, respectively. Identifiable Intangible Assets. Our identifiable intangible assets include product technology rights, trademarks, licenses, and Customer and vendor relationships. We record these assets at cost, or when acquired as part of a business acquisition, at estimated fair value. We generally amortize identifiable intangible assets over periods ranging from 5 to 20 years using the straight-line method. Our intangible assets also include indefinite lived assets including certain trademarks and tradenames that were acquired in connection with business combinations. These assets are tested at least annually for impairment. Investments. Investments in marketable securities are stated at fair value and are included in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Following the fiscal 2019 adoption of ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities, changes in the fair value of these investments are recorded in the "Interest income and miscellaneous expense line" of the Consolidated Statement of Income. Asset Impairment Losses. Property, plant, equipment, and identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment exist and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Impaired assets are recorded at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value. We monitor for such indicators on an ongoing basis and if an impairment exists, we record the loss in the Consolidated Statements of Income during that period. Asset Retirement Obligations. We incur retirement obligations for certain assets. We record initial liabilities for the asset retirement obligations ("ARO") at fair value. Recognition of ARO includes: estimating the present value of a liability and offsetting asset, the subsequent accretion of that liability and depletion of the asset, and a periodic review of the ARO liability estimates and discount rates used in the analysis. We provide additional information about our asset retirement obligations in Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Property, Plant and Equipment.” Acquisitions of Business. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are accounted for at fair value on the date of acquisition. Costs related to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Goodwill. We perform our annual impairment test for goodwill in the third quarter of each year. We may consider qualitative indicators of the fair value of a reporting unit when it is unlikely that a reporting unit has impaired goodwill. We may also utilize a discounted cash flow analysis that requires certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding market conditions and our future profitability. We review the book value compared to the fair value at the reporting unit level. We calculate the fair value of our reporting units based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. Management's judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes and to estimate future cash flows to measure fair value. Assumptions used in our impairment evaluations, such as forecasted growth rates and cost of capital, are consistent with internal projections, strategic plans, and operating plans. We believe such assumptions and estimates are also comparable to those that would be used by other market place participants. Self-Insurance Liabilities. We record a liability for self-insured risks that we retain for general and product liabilities, workers’ compensation, and automobile liabilities based on actuarial calculations. We use our historical loss experience and actuarial methods to calculate the liability. This liability includes estimates for both losses and incurred but not reported claims. We review the assumptions used to calculate the estimated liability at least annually to evaluate the adequacy of the amount recorded. We maintain insurance policies to cover losses greater than our estimated liability, which are subject to the terms and conditions of those policies. We are also self-insured for certain employee medical claims. We estimate a liability for incurred but not reported claims based upon recent claims experience. Benefit Plans. We sponsor defined benefit pension plans. We also sponsor a post-retirement benefits plan for certain former employees. We determine our costs and obligations related to these plans by evaluating input from third-party professional advisers. These costs and obligations are affected by assumptions including the discount rate, expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, the annual rate of change in compensation for eligible employees, estimated changes in costs of healthcare benefits, and other factors. We review the assumptions used on an annual basis. We recognize an asset for the overfunded status or a liability for the underfunded status of defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefits plans in our consolidated balance sheets. This amount is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation (the projected benefit obligation for pension plans and the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation for other post-retirement benefit plans). Changes in the funded status of the plans are recorded in other comprehensive income in the year they occur. We measure plan assets and obligations as of the balance sheet date. We provide additional information about our pension and other post-retirement benefits plans in Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Benefit Plans.” Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Except for long-term debt, our financial instruments are highly liquid or have short-term maturities. We provide additional information about the fair value of our financial instruments in Note 17 titled, “Fair Value Measurements.” Foreign Currency Translation. Most of our operations use their local currency as their functional currency. Financial statements of subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and a weighted average exchange rate for each period for revenues, expenses, gains and losses. Translation adjustments for subsidiaries whose local currency is their functional currency are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within equity. Transaction gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized as incurred in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Income, except for certain inter-company balances designated as long-term in nature. Forward and Swap Contracts. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, including inter-company transactions.We may also enter into commodity swap contracts to hedge price changes in nickel that impact raw materials included in our cost of revenues. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. These contracts are marked to market, with gains and losses recognized within “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” or "Cost of revenues" in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Warranty. Warranties are provided on the sale of certain of our products and services and an accrual for estimated future claims is recorded at the time revenue is recognized. We estimate warranty expense based primarily on historical warranty claim experience. Shipping and Handling. We record shipping and handling costs in costs of revenues. Shipping and handling costs charged to Customers are recorded as revenues in the period the product revenues are recognized. Advertising Expenses. Costs incurred for communicating, advertising and promoting our products are generally expensed when incurred as a component of Selling, General and Administrative Expense. We incurred $12,652, $10,691, and $10,886 of advertising costs during the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. Research and Development. We incur research and development costs associated with commercial products and expense these costs as incurred. If a Customer reimburses us for research and development costs, the costs are charged to the related contracts as costs of revenues. Income Taxes. We defer income taxes for all temporary differences between pre-tax financial and taxable income and between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities. We record valuation allowances to reduce net deferred tax assets to an amount that we expect will more-likely-than-not be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available information, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and if applicable, any carryback claims that can be filed. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes and the effective tax rate. We evaluate uncertain tax positions in accordance with a two-step process. The first step is recognition: The determination of whether or not it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we presume that the position will be examined by the appropriate tax authority and that the tax authority will have full knowledge of all relevant information. The second step is measurement: A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The measurement process requires the determination of the range of possible settlement amounts and the probability of achieving each of the possible settlements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. No tax benefits are recognized for positions that do not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. We describe income taxes further in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Income Taxes.” Share-Based Compensation. We describe share-based compensation in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Share-Based Compensation.” We measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. We record liability awards at fair value each reporting period and the change in fair value is reflected as share-based compensation expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The expense is classified as cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses or research and development expenses in a manner consistent with the employee’s compensation and benefits. These costs are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. Restructuring. We recognize restructuring expenses as incurred. Asset impairment and accelerated depreciation expenses primarily relate to inventory write-downs for rationalized products and adjustments in the carrying value of the related facilities and machinery and equipment to their estimated fair value. In addition, the remaining useful lives of other property, plant, and equipment associated with the related operations are reevaluated based on the respective restructuring plan, which may result in the acceleration of depreciation and amortization of certain assets. Recently Issued Accounting Standards Impacting the Company Recently Issued Accounting Standards Impacting the Company are presented in the following table: Standard Date of Issuance Description Date of Adoption Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters Standards that have recently been adopted ASU 2016-02, "Leases" February 2016 The standard requires lessees to record all leases, whether finance or operating, on the balance sheet. An asset will be recorded to represent the right to use the leased asset, and a liability will be recorded to represent the lease obligation. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within that period. Early adoption is permitted. First Quarter Fiscal 2020 We adopted this standard, and related amendments, effective April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method and have not restated prior periods. We elected to use the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows the carry forward of historical lease classification of existing leases. We also elected the practical expedient related to land easements, allowing us to carry forward our accounting treatment for land easements on existing or expired agreements. We made an accounting policy election to not recognize lease assets or liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less and elected to not separate non-lease components from lease components to which they relate for all asset classes. We recorded lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases totaling $120,562. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income or Cash Flows. Additional information is disclosed in Note 10 under the heading "Leases". ASU 2017-12 August 2017 The standard provides targeted improvements to accounting for hedging activities by expanding an entity’s ability to hedge non-financial and financial risk components and reduce complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk. The guidance eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. The guidance also eases certain documentation and assessment requirements and modifies the accounting for components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the standard. First Quarter Fiscal 2020 We adopted this standard effective April 1, 2019 with no material impact to our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact to our Consolidated Statements of Income will depend on the value of future hedging activities. ASU 2018-02 February 2018 The standard allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") and requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The underlying guidance requiring that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations is not affected. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is p |

Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | 2. RESTRUCTURING Fiscal 2019 Restructuring Plan. During the third quarter of fiscal 2019, we adopted and announced a targeted restructuring plan (the "Fiscal 2019 Restructuring Plan"), which included the closure of two manufacturing facilities, one in Brazil and one in England, as well as other actions including the rationalization of certain products. Fewer than 200 positions were eliminated. The Company has relocated the production of certain impacted products to other existing manufacturing operations during fiscal 2020. These restructuring actions were designed to enhance profitability and improve efficiency. Since inception of the Fiscal 2019 Restructuring Plan we have incurred pre-tax expenses totaling $43,851 related to these restructuring actions, of which $31,660 was recorded as restructuring expenses and $12,191 was recorded in cost of revenues, with a total of $33,680, $668, and $7,798 related to the Healthcare, Life Sciences, and Applied Sterilization Technologies segments, respectively. Corporate related restructuring charges were $1,705. Additional restructuring expenses related to this plan are not expected t o be material to our results of operations. The following table summarizes our total pre-tax restructuring expenses for fiscal 2020 and 2019: Fiscal 2019 Restructuring Plan Year Ended March 31, 2020 Year Ended March 31, 2019 Severance and other compensation related costs $ 1,554 $ 5,651 Accelerated depreciation and amortization — 16,194 (Gain) on disposal of asset (1,164) — Asset impairment — 4,312 Lease termination costs and other 283 4,830 Product rationalization (1) 2,470 9,721 Total restructuring expenses $ 3,143 $ 40,708 (1) Recorded in cost of revenues on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES Fiscal 2020 Acquisitions During fiscal 2020, we completed several tuck-in acquisitions which continued to expand our product and service offerings in the Healthcare and Applied Sterilization Technologies segments. The aggregate purchase price associated with these transactions was approximately $120,537, net of cash acquired and including potential contingent consideration of $9,830 and deferred consideration of $893. Fiscal 2019 Acquisitions During fiscal 2019, we completed a minor purchase to expand our service offerings in the Applied Sterilization Technologies segment. The total purchase price was $13,313, and was financed with both cash on hand and with credit facility borrowings. Purchase price allocations will be finalized within a measurement period not to exceed one year from closing. Fiscal 2018 Acquisitions We completed several minor purchases that continued to expand our product and service offerings in the Healthcare and Applied Sterilization Technologies segments. The aggregate purchase price associated with these transactions was approximately $52,292, net of cash acquired and including contingent consideration of $5,018. The purchase price for the acquisitions was financed with both cash on hand and with credit facility borrowings. Fair Value of Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed The table below summarizes the allocation of the purchase price to the net assets acquired based on fair values at the acquisition dates for our fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018 acquisitions.

Acquisition related transaction and integration costs totaled $8,225, $8,901, and $16,211 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. These costs are included in Selling, general, and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Divestitures Fiscal 2020 During fiscal 2020, we sold the operations of our hospital sterilization services business that was located in China. We recorded proceeds of $439, net of cash divested, and recognized a pre-tax loss on the sale of $2,365 in the selling, general and administrative expense line of the Consolidated Statements of Income. The business generated annual revenues of approximately $5,000. Fiscal 2018 Synergy Health Healthcare Consumable Solutions On November 20, 2017, we sold our Synergy Health Healthcare Consumable Solutions ("HCS") business to Vernacare. Annual revenues for the HCS business were approximately $40,000 and were included in the Healthcare segment. We recorded proceeds of $8,891, net of cash divested, including a working capital adjustment. We also recognized a pre-tax loss on the sale, subject to final working capital adjustments, of $12,972 in Selling, general, and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Loans Receivable In connection with an equity investment of $4,955, we agreed to provide a credit facility of up to approximately $10,000 for a term of up to seven years ending in 2025. The loan carries an interest rate of 4% compounded daily and interest is payable annually. Outstanding borrowings under the agreement totaled $7,084 at March 31, 2020 and $7,465 at March 31, 2019. In connection with the fiscal 2017 divestiture of Synergy Health Netherlands Linen Management Services, we entered into a loan agreement to provide financing of up to €15,000 for a term of up to 15 years. The loan carried an interest rate of 4% for the first four years and 12% thereafter. The loan was renegotiated during the third quarter of fiscal 2020. According to the new terms of the loan agreement, the outstanding balance at October 31, 2019, of €7,300, will be repaid in six equal annual |

GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS Changes to the carrying amount of goodwill for the years ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows: Healthcare Life Sciences Applied Sterilization Technologies Segment Total Balance at March 31, 2018 792,699 148,816 1,492,269 2,433,784 Goodwill acquired or allocated (2,109) — 5,341 3,232 Foreign currency translation adjustments (18,396) (1,021) (94,671) (114,088) Balance at March 31, 2019 $ 772,194 $ 147,795 $ 1,402,939 $ 2,322,928 Goodwill acquired or allocated 66,586 — 7,945 74,531 Divestitures (199) — — (199) Foreign currency translation adjustments (11,315) 762 (30,622) (41,175) Balance at March 31, 2020 $ 827,266 $ 148,557 $ 1,380,262 $ 2,356,085 See Note 18, titled "Business Acquisitions and Divestitures" for additional information regarding our recent business acquisitions and divestitures. We evaluate the recoverability of recorded goodwill amounts annually during the third fiscal quarter, or when evidence of potential impairment exists. As a result of our annual impairment review of goodwill for fiscal years 2020, 2019 and 2018, no indicators of impairment were identified. Information regarding our intangible assets is as follows: 2020 2019 March 31, Gross Accumulated Gross Accumulated Customer relationships $ 614,162 $ 227,581 $ 623,774 $ 189,752 Non-compete agreements 4,646 4,012 4,693 3,945 Patents and technology 259,101 145,457 226,520 126,149 Trademarks and tradenames 62,543 39,942 63,570 38,850 Supplier relationships 54,800 12,787 54,800 10,047 Total $ 995,252 $ 429,779 $ 973,357 $ 368,743 Certain trademarks and tradenames obtained as a result of business combinations are indefinite-lived assets. The approximate carrying value of these assets at March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 was $14,250 and $13,000, respectively. We evaluate our indefinite-lived intangible assets annually during the third quarter, or when evidence of potential impairment exists. No impairment was recognized for fiscal year 2020. During the third quarter of fiscal 2019, management adopted a branding strategy that included phasing out the usage of a tradename associated with certain products in the Healthcare business segment. As a result, management recorded an impairment charge of $16,249, which is included within the Selling, general, and administrative line of the Consolidated Statements of Income. The remaining fair value of the asset was calculated using an income approach (the relief from royalty method). The remaining fair value was not material and will be amortized over the asset's remaining useful life. Fair value calculated using this approach is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and requires several assumptions. Total amortization expense for intangible assets was $74,528, $98,747, and $70,195 for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. Based upon the current amount of intangible assets subject to amortization, the amortization expense for each of the five succeeding fiscal years is estimated to be as follows: 2021 2022 2023 2024 2025 Estimated amortization expense $ 71,049 $ 68,393 $ 62,808 $ 56,549 $ 54,772 The estimated annual amortization expense presented in the preceding table has been calculated based upon March 31, 2020 currency exchange rates. |

Debt | 6. DEBT Indebtedness as of March 31, 2020 and 2019 was as follows: 2020 2019 Credit Agreement $ 275,449 $ 301,846 Private Placement 878,409 884,967 Deferred financing fees (3,337) (3,619) Other — 33 Total long term debt $ 1,150,521 $ 1,183,227 On March 23, 2018, STERIS UK and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with various financial institutions as lenders, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. STERIS Ireland subsequently became a borrower and guarantor under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement replaced a bank credit facility dated March 31, 2015. The Credit Agreement provides up to $1,000,000 of credit, in the form of a revolver facility, which may be utilized for revolving credit borrowings, swing line borrowings and letters of credit, with sublimits for swing line borrowings and letters of credit. The revolver facility may be increased in specified circumstances by up to $500,000. The Credit Agreement will mature on March 23, 2023, and all unpaid borrowings, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, are repayable on that date. The Credit Agreement contains leverage and interest coverage covenants. Borrowings may be taken in U.S. dollars, euros, and pounds sterling and certain other specified currencies and bear interest at our option based upon either the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate, plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time under the Credit Agreement. The Applicable Margin is determined based on the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement). Interest on Base Rate Advances is payable quarterly in arrears and interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances is payable at the end of the relevant interest period therefor, but in no event less frequently than every three months. Borrowings at closing were used to repay outstanding balances of debt outstanding under the former bank credit facility dated March 31, 2015 that was scheduled to mature on March 31, 2020 and for other general corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement was amended in March 2019, in connection with the Redomiciliation to permit the Redomiciliation. The amendments did not effect any material changes in the terms of the Credit Agreement regarding borrowings or the issuance of letters of credit. As of March 31, 2020 a total of $275,449 of Credit Agreement and Swing Line Facility borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Agreement, based on currency exchange rates as of March 31, 2020. Our outstanding Senior Notes at March 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows: Applicable Note Purchase Agreement Maturity Date U.S. Dollar Value at March 31, 2020 U.S. Dollar Value at March 31, 2019 $35,000 Senior notes at 6.43% 2008 Private Placement August 2020 35,000 35,000 $91,000 Senior notes at 3.20% 2012 Private Placement December 2022 91,000 91,000 $80,000 Senior notes at 3.35% 2012 Private Placement December 2024 80,000 80,000 $25,000 Senior notes at 3.55% 2012 Private Placement December 2027 25,000 25,000 $125,000 Senior notes at 3.45% 2015 Private Placement May 2025 125,000 125,000 $125,000 Senior notes at 3.55% 2015 Private Placement May 2027 125,000 125,000 $100,000 Senior notes at 3.70% 2015 Private Placement May 2030 100,000 100,000 $50,000 Senior notes at 3.93% 2017 Private Placement February 2027 50,000 50,000 €60,000 Senior notes at 1.86% 2017 Private Placement February 2027 66,342 67,352 $45,000 Senior notes at 4.03% 2017 Private Placement February 2029 45,000 45,000 €20,000 Senior notes at 2.04% 2017 Private Placement February 2029 22,114 22,450 £45,000 Senior notes at 3.04% 2017 Private Placement February 2029 55,767 58,702 €19,000 Senior notes at 2.30% 2017 Private Placement February 2032 21,008 21,328 £30,000 Senior notes at 3.17% 2017 Private Placement February 2032 37,178 39,135 Total Senior Notes $ 878,409 $ 884,967 On February 27, 2017, STERIS UK issued and sold an aggregate principal amount of $95,000, €99,000, and £75,000, of senior notes in a private placement to certain institutional investors in an offering that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. These notes have maturities of between 10 years and 15 years from the issue date. The agreement governing these notes contains leverage and interest coverage covenants. On May 15, 2015, STERIS Corporation issued and sold $350,000 of senior notes, in a private placement to certain institutional investors in an offering that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. These notes have maturities of 10 years to 15 years from the issue date. The agreement governing these notes contains leverage and interest coverage covenants. The agreements governing certain senior notes issued and sold in February 2013, December 2012, and August 2008, were amended and restated in their entirety on March 31, 2015. All of these notes were issued and sold in private placements to certain institutional investors in offerings that were exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. The amended and restated agreements, which have been consolidated into a single agreement for the 2013 and 2012 notes, and a separate single agreement for the 2008 notes, contain leverage and interest coverage covenants. All of the note agreements were amended in March 2019, in connection with the Redomiciliation. The amendments waived certain repurchase rights of the note holders and increased the size of certain baskets to more closely align with Credit Agreement baskets. At March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants associated with our indebtedness. The combined annual aggregate amount of maturities of our outstanding debt by fiscal year is as follows: 2021 (1) $ 35,000 2022 — 2023 366,449 2024 — 2025 and thereafter 752,409 Total $ 1,153,858 (1) This amount represents a senior note that matures in August 2020. In accordance with ASU 470-10-45, we have presented the note as a long-term liability based on our intention to refinance the note on a long-term basis under our credit facility |

Income Tax Expense [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Expense (Benefit) | 8. INCOME TAXES The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “TCJA”) was enacted on December 22, 2017. The TCJA reduced the maximum U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21.0%, required companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and created new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. The Company applied the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cut and Jobs Act when accounting for the enactment-date effects of the TCJA. We consider the tax expense recorded for the TCJA to be complete at this time. However, it is possible that additional legislation, regulations, interpretations and/or guidance may be issued in the future that may result in additional adjustments to the tax expense recorded related to the TCJA. We have continued to monitor these as they are published. While none have resulted in material adverse impacts through fiscal 2020, there are certain items, which were not yet considered law as of March 31, 2020, that if finalized as proposed, could result in an adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. Specifically, full retroactive application to April 1, 2019 of certain of the regulations relating to §267A, would require recognition of income tax expense up to $15,000 related to the period April 1, 2019 through December 4, 2019 when we restructured certain of our intercompany financing arrangements. This potential impact contains significant uncertainty and could be impacted by various factors, including any differences between the proposed and finalized regulations, issued in April 2020, and their retroactive application. Income from continuing operations before income taxes was as follows: Years Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 United States operations $ 325,522 $ 235,405 $ 203,872 Ireland operations 29,543 13,693 11,837 Other locations operations 143,616 120,372 139,273 $ 498,681 $ 369,470 $ 354,982 The components of the provision for income taxes related to income from continuing operations consisted of the following: Years Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Current: United States federal $ 42,032 $ 29,943 $ 47,728 United States state and local 9,971 12,484 7,727 Ireland 5,036 2,627 2,596 Other locations 24,600 26,824 26,742 81,639 71,878 84,793 Deferred: United States federal 10,073 5,775 (15,728) United States state and local 2,363 2,836 2,656 Ireland (899) (546) (280) Other locations (2,300) (15,549) (8,081) 9,237 (7,484) (21,433) Total Provision for Income Taxes $ 90,876 $ 64,394 $ 63,360 The total provision for income taxes can be reconciled to the tax computed at the Ireland statutory tax rate for 2020 and 2019, and the United Kingdom statutory rate for 2018 as follows: Years Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 National statutory tax rate 12.5 % 12.5 % 19.0 % Increase (decrease) in accruals for uncertain tax positions (0.3) % — % 0.1 % U.S. state and local taxes, net of federal income tax benefit 2.0 % 3.1 % 2.3 % Increase in valuation allowances 0.5 % 0.4 % 0.1 % U.S. research and development credit (0.5) % (0.6) % (0.5) % U.S. foreign income tax credit (0.6) % (0.2) % (0.2) % Difference in non-Ireland tax rates 6.9 % 4.5 % — % Difference in non-United Kingdom tax rates — % — % 4.1 % U.S. manufacturing deduction — % — % (0.8) % Excess tax benefit for equity compensation (2.8) % (2.2) % (1.8) % Tax rate changes on deferred tax assets and liabilities 0.1 % (0.6) % (10.3) % U.S. transition tax on foreign earnings — % (0.3) % 4.9 % U.S. tax reform impact, GILTI and FDII 0.1 % 0.3 % — % Acquisitions and divestitures — % — % 0.5 % Capitalized acquisition, redomiciliation costs 0.1 % 0.5 % — % All other, net 0.2 % — % 0.4 % Total Provision for Income Taxes 18.2 % 17.4 % 17.8 % Unrecognized Tax Benefits. We classify uncertain tax positions and related interest and penalties as long-term liabilities within “Other liabilities” in our accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, unless they are expected to be paid within 12 months, in which case, the uncertain tax positions would be classified as current liabilities within “Accrued income taxes.” We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within “Income tax expense” in our accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows: 2020 2019 Unrecognized Tax Benefits Balance at April 1 $ 2,314 $ 2,500 Increases for tax provisions of current year 176 178 Decreases for tax provisions of prior year (1,570) (186) Other, including currency translation (45) (178) Unrecognized Tax Benefits Balance at March 31 $ 875 $ 2,314 We recognized interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in the provision for income taxes. As of March 31, 2020, and 2019 we had $243 and $360 accrued for interest and penalties, respectively. If all unrecognized tax benefits were recognized, the net impact on the provision for income tax expense would be $1,118. The decrease in unrecognized tax benefits from prior year is due to the release of expired positions. It is reasonably possible that during the next 12 months, there will be no material reductions in unrecognized tax benefits as a result of the expiration of various statutes of limitations or other matters. We operate in numerous taxing jurisdictions and are subject to regular examinations by various United States federal, state and local, as well as foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to United States federal examinations for years before fiscal 2016 and, with limited exceptions, we are no longer subject to United States state and local, or non-United States, income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before fiscal 2015. We remain subject to tax authority audits in various jurisdictions wherever we do business. In May 2019, we received two notices of proposed tax adjustment from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the deductibility of interest paid on certain intercompany debt. The notices relate to fiscal years 2016 and 2017. In September 2019, we received another notice of proposed adjustment for the same issue, for the 2018 fiscal year. The IRS adjustments would result in a cumulative tax liability of approximately $40,000. Notices have not been received for subsequent periods. We are contesting the IRS’s assertions, and intend to pursue available remedies such as appeals and litigation, if necessary. We have not established reserves related to these notices. An unfavorable outcome is not expected to have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position but could be material to our consolidated results of operations and cash flows for any one period. We estimate that the tax benefit from our Costa Rican Tax Holiday is $1,900 (or $0.02 per fully diluted share), annually. The Tax Holiday runs fully exempt, from income tax, through 2025 and partially exempt through 2029. Deferred Taxes. The significant components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities recorded in our accompanying balance sheets at March 31, 2020 and 2019 were as follows: March 31, 2020 2019 Deferred Tax Assets: Post-retirement benefit accrual $ 2,871 $ 3,142 Compensation 12,560 14,275 Net operating loss carryforwards 16,149 19,195 Accrued expenses 5,490 4,858 Insurance 3,620 3,187 Deferred income 11,316 7,509 Bad debt 1,820 1,386 Pension 2,273 3,364 Operating leases (1) 28,945 — Other 6,024 7,707 Deferred Tax Assets 91,068 64,623 Less: Valuation allowance 13,891 13,478 Total Deferred Tax Assets 77,177 51,145 Deferred Tax Liabilities: Depreciation and depletion 68,179 61,060 Operating leases (1) 29,268 — Intangibles 129,951 128,479 Other 2,078 2,197 Total Deferred Tax Liabilities 229,476 191,736 Net Deferred Tax Assets (Liabilities) $ (152,299) $ (140,591) (1) For more information regarding our operating leases, see Note 10 titled, "Commitments and Contingencies". At March 31, 2020, we had U.S. federal operating loss carryforwards of $10,942, which remain subject to a 20 year carryforward period. Additionally, we had non-U.S. operating loss carry forwards of $41,450. Although the majority of the non-U.S. carryforwards have indefinite expiration periods, those carryforwards that have definite expiration periods will expire if unused between fiscal years 2021 and 2041. In addition, we have recorded pre-valuation allowance tax benefits of $2,042 related to state operating loss carryforwards. If unused, these state operating loss carryforwards will expire between fiscal years 2021 and 2040. At March 31, 2020, we had $2,547 of tax credit carryforwards. These credit carryforwards can be used through fiscal 2030. We review the need for a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance of $13,891 has been applied to a portion of the net deferred tax assets because we do not believe it is more-likely-than-not that we will receive future benefit. The valuation allowance increased during fiscal 2020 by $413. Other than the tax expense recorded for the one-time transition tax on unremitted earnings of non-US subsidiaries, no additional provision has been made for income taxes on undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries as the Company’s position is that these amounts continue to be indefinitely reinvested. The amount of undistributed earnings of subsidiaries was approximately $1,600,000 at March 31, 2020. It is not practicable to estimate the additional income taxes and applicable withholding taxes that would be payable on the remittance of such undistributed earnings. In October 2015, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), in conjunction with the G20, finalized broad-based international tax policy guidelines that involve transfer pricing and other international tax subjects. While some member jurisdictions automatically adopt the new OECD guidelines, most member countries can adopt the guidelines only by new law or regulations. We are currently adopting processes to comply with the reporting requirements specified by the guidelines and are evaluating the other parts of the guidelines. |

Benefit Plans | 9. BENEFIT PLANS In the United States, we sponsor an unfunded post-retirement welfare benefits plan for two groups of United States retirees. Benefits under this plan include retiree life insurance and retiree medical insurance, including prescription drug coverage. During the second quarter of fiscal 2009, we amended our United States post-retirement welfare benefits plan, reducing the benefits to be provided to retirees under the plan and increasing their share of the costs. The amendments resulted in a decrease of $46,001 in the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation. The impact of this change was recognized in our Consolidated Balance Sheets in fiscal 2009 and is being amortized as a component of the annual net periodic benefit cost over a period of approximately thirteen years. We sponsor several defined benefit pension schemes outside the United States: two in the UK, one in the Netherlands, two in Germany, and one in Switzerland. The Synergy Health plc Retirement Benefit Scheme is a defined benefit (final salary) funded pension scheme. In previous years, Synergy sponsored a funded defined benefit arrangement in the Netherlands. This was a separate fund holding the pension scheme assets to meet long-term pension liabilities for past and present employees. Accrual of benefits ceased under the scheme effective January 1, 2013. The Synergy Radeberg and Synergy Allershausen Schemes are unfunded defined pension schemes and are closed to new entrants. The Synergy Daniken Scheme is a defined benefit funded pension scheme. As a result of our fiscal 2018 acquisition of Harwell Dosimeters Ltd, we also sponsor in the Harwell Dosimeters Ltd Retirement Benefits Scheme which is a defined benefit funded pension scheme. We recognize the funded status of our defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefit plans in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. The funded status is measured as of March 31 each year and is calculated as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation (which is the projected benefit obligation for pension plans and the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation for post-retirement benefit plans). Accumulated comprehensive income (loss) represents the net unrecognized actuarial losses and unrecognized prior service cost. These amounts will be recognized in net periodic benefit cost as they are amortized. We will recognize future changes to the funded status of these plans in the year the change occurs, through other comprehensive income. Obligations and Funded Status. The following table reconciles the funded status of the defined benefit pension plans and the other post-retirement benefits plan to the amounts recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Benefit obligation balances presented in the following table reflect the projected benefit obligations for our defined benefit pension plans and the accumulated other post-retirement benefit obligation for our post-retirement benefits plan. The measurement date of our defined benefit pension plans and other post-retirement benefits plan is March 31, for both periods presented.

The following table presents significant assumptions used to determine the projected benefit obligations at March 31: 2020 2019 Discount Rate: Synergy Health plc Retirement Benefits Scheme 2.40 % 2.50 % Isotron BV Pension Plan 1.60 % 1.20 % Synergy Health Daniken AG 0.20 % 0.85 % Synergy Health Radeberg 1.60 % 1.60 % Synergy Health Allershausen 0.50 % 1.60 % Harwell Dosimeters Ltd Retirement Benefits Scheme 2.45 % 2.35 % Other post-retirement plan 3.00 % 3.50 % The following table presents significant assumptions used to determine the net periodic benefit costs for the years ended March 31: 2020 2019 2018 Discount Rate: Synergy Health plc Retirement Benefits Scheme 2.50 % 2.50 % 2.60 % Isotron BV Pension Plan 1.20 % 1.60 % 1.60 % Synergy Health Daniken AG 0.20 % 0.95 % 0.65 % Synergy Health Radeberg 1.60 % 1.60 % 1.50 % Synergy Health Allershausen 1.75 % 1.60 % 1.50 % Harwell Dosimeters Ltd Retirement Benefits Scheme 2.45 % 2.55 % 2.55 % Other post-retirement plan 3.50 % 3.50 % 3.50 % Expected Return on Plan Assets: Synergy Health plc Retirement Benefits Scheme 4.80 % 5.02 % 4.97 % Isotron BV Pension Plan 1.20 % 1.60 % 1.60 % Synergy Health Daniken AG 0.65 % 1.20 % 1.40 % The net periodic benefit cost and the actuarial present value of projected benefit obligations are based upon assumptions that we review on an annual basis. These assumptions may be revised annually based upon an evaluation of long-term trends, as well as market conditions that may have an impact on the cost of providing benefits. We develop our expected long-term rate of return on plan assets assumptions by evaluating input from third-party professional advisers, taking into consideration the asset allocation of the portfolios and the long-term asset class return expectations. We develop our discount rate assumptions by evaluating input from third-party professional advisers, taking into consideration the current yield on country specific investment grade long-term bonds which provide for similar cash flow streams as our projected obligations. We have made assumptions regarding healthcare costs in computing our other post-retirement benefit obligation. The assumed rates of increase generally decline ratably over a five-year period from the assumed current year healthcare cost trend rate to the assumed long-term healthcare cost trend rate noted below. 2020 2019 2018 Healthcare cost trend rate – medical 6.75 % 6.75 % 7.00 % Healthcare cost trend rate – prescription drug 6.75 % 6.75 % 7.00 % Long-term healthcare cost trend rate 4.50 % 4.50 % 4.50 % To determine the healthcare cost trend rates, we evaluate a combination of information, including ongoing claims cost monitoring, annual statistical analyses of claims data, reconciliation of forecasted claims against actual claims, review of trend assumptions of other plan sponsors and national health trends, and adjustments for plan design changes, workforce changes, and changes in plan participant behavior. A one-percentage-point change in assumed healthcare cost trend rates (including medical, prescription drug, and long-term rates) would have had the following effect on our other post-retirement benefit obligation at March 31, 2020: One-Percentage Point Increase Decrease Effect on total service and interest cost components $ — $ — Effect on other post-retirement benefit obligation 7 (6) Plan Assets. The investment policies for our plans are generally established by the local pension plan trustees and seek to maintain the plans' ability to meet liabilities and to comply with local minimum funding requirements. Plan assets are invested in diversified portfolios that provide adequate levels of return at an acceptable level of risk. The investment policies are reviewed at least annually and revised, as deemed appropriate to ensure that the objectives are being met. At March 31, 2020, the targeted allocation for the plans were approximately 75% equity investments and 25% fixed income investments. Financial instruments included in pension plan assets are categorized into three tiers. These tiers include a fair value hierarchy of three levels, based on the degree of subjectivity inherent in the valuation methodology as follows: Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets in active markets. Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets in active markets with inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 - Unobservable prices or inputs in which little or no market data exists. The fair value of our pension benefits plan assets at March 31, 2020 and 2019 by asset category is as follows: Fair Value Measurements at March 31, 2020 (In thousands) Total Quoted Significant Significant Cash $ 302 $ 302 $ — $ — Insured annuities 14,522 — 14,522 — Insurance contracts 4,345 — — 4,345 Common and collective trusts valued at net asset value: Equity security trusts 47,187 — — — Debt security trusts 45,847 — — — Total Plan Assets $ 112,203 $ 302 $ 14,522 $ 4,345 Fair Value Measurements at March 31, 2019 (In thousands) Total Quoted Significant Significant Cash $ 450 $ 450 $ — $ — Insured annuities 14,720 — 14,720 — Insurance contracts 5,089 — — 5,089 Common and collective trusts valued at net asset value: Equity security trusts 73,532 — — — Debt security trusts 23,713 — — — Total Plan Assets $ 117,504 $ 450 $ 14,720 $ 5,089 Collective investment trusts are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share practical expedient. These trusts have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy and are being presented in the tables above to permit a reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the total plan assets. The fair value measurement of plan assets using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) changed during fiscal year 2020 due to the following: Insurance contracts Balance at March 31, 2018 $ 5,484 Gains (losses) related to assets still held at year-end 29 Transfers out of Level 3 (132) Foreign currency (292) Balance at March 31, 2019 $ 5,089 Gains (losses) related to assets still held at year-end 62 Transfers out of Level 3 (664) Foreign currency (142) Balance at March 31, 2020 $ 4,345 Cash Flows. We contribute amounts to our defined benefit pension plans at least equal to the minimum amounts required by applicable employee benefit laws and local tax laws. We expect to make contributions of approximately $3,839 during fiscal 2021. Based upon the actuarial assumptions utilized to develop our benefit obligations at March 31, 2020, the following benefit payments are expected to be made to plan participants: Other Defined Benefit Pension Plans Other Post-Retirement Benefits Plan 2021 $ 5,872 $ 1,510 2022 6,025 1,392 2023 6,600 1,252 2024 6,336 1,115 2025 6,518 1,007 2026-2031 35,292 3,726 The Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement and Modernization Act of 2003 (the “Act”) provides a prescription drug benefit for Medicare beneficiaries, a benefit we provide to Medicare eligible retirees covered by our post-retirement benefits plan. We have concluded that the prescription drug benefit provided in our post-retirement benefit plan is considered to be actuarially equivalent to the benefit provided under the Act and thus qualifies for the subsidy under the Act. Benefits are subject to a per capita per month cost cap and any costs above the cap become the responsibility of the retiree. Under the plan, the subsidy is applied to reduce the retiree responsibility. As a result, the expected future subsidy no longer reduces our accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation and net periodic benefit cost. We collected subsidies totaling approximately $708 and $706, during fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019, respectively, which reduced the retiree responsibility for costs in excess of the caps established in the post-retirement benefit plan. Defined Contribution Plans. We maintain a 401(k) defined contribution plan for eligible U.S. employees, a 401(k) defined contribution plan for eligible Puerto Rico employees and similar savings plans for certain employees in Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, and Finland. We provide a match on a specified portion of an employee’s contribution. The U.S. plan assets are held in trust and invested as directed by the plan participants. The Canadian plan assets are held by insurance companies. The aggregate fair value of the U.S. plan assets was $668,960 at March 31, 2020. At March 31, 2020, the U.S. plan held 555,080 STERIS ordinary shares with a fair value of $77,695. We paid dividends of $855, $826, and $781 to the plan and participants on STERIS shares held by the plan for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. We contributed approximately $27,818, $25,935, and $24,037, to the defined contribution plans for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Schedule of Loss Contingencies by Contingency [Text Block] | 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES We are, and will likely continue to be, involved in a number of legal proceedings, government investigations, and claims, which we believe generally arise in the course of our business, given our size, history, complexity, and the nature of our business, products, Customers, regulatory environment, and industries in which we participate. These legal proceedings, investigations and claims generally involve a variety of legal theories and allegations, including, without limitation, personal injury (e.g., slip and falls, burns, vehicle accidents), product liability or regulation (e.g., based on product operation or claimed malfunction, failure to warn, failure to meet specification, or failure to comply with regulatory requirements), product exposure (e.g., claimed exposure to chemicals, asbestos, contaminants, radiation), property damage (e.g., claimed damage due to leaking equipment, fire, vehicles, chemicals), commercial claims (e.g., breach of contract, economic loss, warranty, misrepresentation), financial (e.g., taxes, reporting), employment (e.g., wrongful termination, discrimination, benefits matters), and other claims for damage and relief. We believe we have adequately reserved for our current litigation and claims that are probable and estimable, and further believe that the ultimate outcome of these pending lawsuits and claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations taken as a whole. Due to their inherent uncertainty, however, there can be no assurance of the ultimate outcome or effect of current or future litigation, investigations, claims or other proceedings (including without limitation the matters discussed below). For certain types of claims, we presently maintain insurance coverage for personal injury and property damage and other liability coverages in amounts and with deductibles that we believe are prudent, but there can be no assurance that these coverages will be applicable or adequate to cover adverse outcomes of claims or legal proceedings against us. On May 31, 2012, our Albert Browne Limited subsidiary received a warning letter from the FDA regarding chemical indicators manufactured in the United Kingdom. These devices are intended for the monitoring of certain sterilization and other processes. The FDA warning letter stated that the agency had concerns regarding operational business processes. In the second half of calendar 2019, the FDA conducted a comprehensive inspection of the Albert Browne facility in question. In a May 12, 2020 email, the FDA provided the Company with a copy of the Inspection Report. In that same email the FDA advised the Company that the email would serve as a "No Action Indicated" notice and that it was finalizing a Warning Letter Closeout to be provided to the Company. These actions bring this matter to a favorable conclusion for the Company. Civil, criminal, regulatory or other proceedings involving our products or services could possibly result in judgments, settlements or administrative or judicial decrees requiring us, among other actions, to pay damages or fines or effect recalls, or be subject to other governmental, Customer or other third party claims or remedies, which could materially effect our business, performance, prospects, value, financial condition, and results of operations. For additional information regarding these matters, see the risks and uncertainties described under the title "product related regulations and claims" in Item 1A. of the Fiscal 2020 Form 10-K. From time to time, STERIS is also involved in legal proceedings as a plaintiff involving contract, patent protection, and other claims asserted by us. Gains, if any, from these proceedings are recognized when they are realized. We are subject to taxation from United States federal, state and local, and foreign jurisdictions. Tax positions are settled primarily through the completion of audits within each individual jurisdiction or the closing of statutes of limitation. Changes in applicable tax law or other events may also require us to revise past estimates. We describe income taxes further in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Income Taxes” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Additional information regarding our contingencies is included in Item 7 of Part II titled, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations under "Contingencies". As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, our commercial commitments totaled $80,230 and $73,765, respectively. Commercial commitments include standby letters of credit, letters of credit required as security under our self-insured risk retention policies, and other potential cash outflows resulting from an event that requires payment by us. Approximately $12,474 and $7,794 of the March 31, 2020 and 2019 totals, respectively, relate to letters of credit required as security under our self-insured risk retention policies. As of March 31, 2020, we had minimum purchase commitments with suppliers for raw material purchases totaling $63,054. As of March 31, 2020, we also had commitments of $91,077 for long term construction contracts. Leases We lease manufacturing, warehouse and office space, service facilities, vehicles, equipment and communication systems. Certain leases contain options that provide us with the ability to extend the lease term. Such options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. We made an accounting policy election to not recognize lease assets or lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. We determine if an agreement contains a lease and classify our leases as operating or finance at the lease commencement date. Finance leases are generally those leases for which we will pay substantially all the underlying asset’s fair value or will use the asset for all or a major part of its economic life, including circumstances in which we will ultimately own the asset. Lease assets arising from finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, net and the liabilities are included in other liabilities. For finance leases, we recognize interest expense using the effective interest method and we recognize amortization expense on the lease asset over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the asset. Our finance leases are not material as of March 31, 2020 and for the twelve month period then ended. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. As most leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, we estimate an incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Our estimated incremental borrowing rate reflects a secured rate based on recent debt issuances, our estimated credit rating, lease term, as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics. For operating leases, we recognize lease cost on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. When accounting for leases, we combine payments for leased assets, related services and other components of a lease. The components of operating lease expense are as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2020 Fixed operating lease expense $ 28,252 Variable operating lease expense 5,449 Total operating lease expense $ 33,701 Supplemental cash flow information related to operating leases is as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2020 Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities $ 27,613 Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease obligations, net $ 44,636 Maturities of lease liabilities at March 31, 2020 are as follows : March 31, 2021 $ 25,302 2022 21,064 2023 17,271 2024 14,045 2025 and thereafter 96,249 Total operating lease payments 173,931 Less imputed interest 40,008 Total operating lease liabilities $ 133,923 In the preceding table, the future minimum annual rentals payable under noncancelable leases denominated in foreign currencies have been calculated using March 31, 2020 foreign currency exchange rates. Supplemental information related to operating leases is as follows: March 31, 2020 Weighted-average remaining lease term of operating leases 11.5 years Weighted-average discount rate of operating leases 4.4 % Prior to the adoption of ASU 2016-02, " Leases" (Topic 842) future minimum annual rentals payable under noncancelable operating lease agreements in excess of one year as of March 31, 2019 were as follows: March 31, 2019 2020 $ 24,008 2021 18,567 2022 13,917 2023 11,929 2024 and thereafter 93,939 Total minimum lease payments $ 162,360 In the preceding table, the future minimum annual rentals payable under noncancelable leases denominated in foreign currencies have been calculated using March 31, 2019 foreign currency exchange rates. |

Notes To Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Business Segment Information | 11. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION We operate and report our financial information in three reportable business segments: Healthcare, Life Sciences and Applied Sterilization Technologies. Non-allocated operating costs that support the entire Company and items not indicative of operating trends are excluded from segment operating income. Our Healthcare segment offers infection prevention and procedural solutions for healthcare providers worldwide, including consumable products, equipment maintenance and installation services, and capital equipment. The segment also provides a range of specialty services for healthcare providers including hospital sterilization services and instrument and scope repairs. Our Life Sciences segment offers consumable products, equipment maintenance, specialty services and capital equipment primarily for pharmaceutical manufacturers. Our Applied Sterilization Technologies ("AST") segment provides contract sterilization and testing services for medical device and pharmaceutical manufacturers. We disclose a measure of segment income that is consistent with the way management operates and views the business. The accounting policies for reportable segments are the same as those for the consolidated Company. In fiscal 2019, we ceased the allocation of certain corporate costs to our segments to align with internal management measures. The prior period operating income measures have been recast for comparability. For the year ended March 31, 2020, revenues from a single Customer did not represent ten percent or more of any reportable segment’s revenues. Years Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Revenues: Healthcare $ 1,986,809 $ 1,848,485 $ 1,745,119 Life Sciences 416,939 378,558 361,590 Applied Sterilization Technologies 627,147 555,127 513,287 Total revenues $ 3,030,895 $ 2,782,170 $ 2,619,996 Operating income (loss): Healthcare 420,636 387,906 352,620 Life Sciences 144,088 132,129 123,889 Applied Sterilization Technologies 270,917 221,828 196,297 Total reportable segments 835,641 741,863 672,806 Corporate (207,015) (184,900) (162,999) Total operating income before adjustments $ 628,626 $ 556,963 $ 509,807 Less: Adjustments Amortization of acquired intangible assets (1) 71,675 86,878 67,793 Acquisition and integration related charges (2) 8,225 8,901 16,211 Redomiciliation and tax restructuring costs (3) 3,699 8,783 — (Gain) on fair value adjustment of acquisition related contingent consideration (1) — (842) (593) Net loss (gain) on divestiture of businesses (1) 1,770 (1,370) 14,547 Amortization of property "step up" to fair value (1) 2,392 2,440 1,599 Restructuring charges (4) 3,143 40,708 103 Impact of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (5) — — 10,264 COVID-19 incremental costs (6) 749 — — Total operating income $ 536,973 $ 411,465 $ 399,883 (1) For more information regarding our recent acquisitions and divestitures see Note 18 titled, "Business Acquisitions and Divestitures". Amortization of purchased intangible assets fiscal 2019 total includes an impairment charge of $16,249, see Note 3 titled, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets", for more information. (2) Acquisition and integration related charges include transaction costs and integration expenses associated with acquisitions. (3) Costs incurred in connection with the Redomiciliation and subsequent tax restructuring. (4) For more information regarding our restructuring activities see Note 2 titled, "Restructuring". (5) Represents a one-time special employee bonus paid to most U.S. employees and associated professional fees. (6) COVID-19 incremental costs includes the additional costs attributable to COVID-19 such as enhanced cleaning protocols, personal protective equipment for our employees, event cancellation fees, and payroll costs associated with our response to COVID-19, net of any government subsidies available. Assets include the current and long-lived assets directly attributable to the segment based on the management of the location or on utilization. Certain corporate assets were allocated to the reportable segments based on revenues. Assets attributed to sales and distribution locations are only allocated to the Healthcare and Life Sciences segments. Individual facilities, equipment, and intellectual properties are utilized for production by both the Healthcare and Life Sciences segments at varying levels over time. As a result, an allocation of total assets, capital expenditures, and depreciation and amortization is not meaningful to the individual performance of the Healthcare and Life Sciences segments. Therefore, their respective amounts are reported together.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block] | 12. SHARES AND PREFERRED SHARES Ordinary Shares In connection with the Redomiciliation, STERIS UK shareholders received STERIS plc shares pursuant to a scheme of arrangement under UK law. Each STERIS UK ordinary shareholder received one ordinary share, par value $75.00, of STERIS plc for each STERIS UK ordinary share held, which STERIS UK shares were canceled. On May 3, 2019, the par value of STERIS plc shares issued pursuit to the scheme of arrangement was reduced to $0.001 per share. We calculate basic earnings per share based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding. We calculate diluted earnings per share based upon the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of share equivalents calculated using the treasury stock method. The following is a summary of shares and share equivalents outstanding used in the calculations of basic and diluted earnings per share: Years ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Denominator ( shares in thousands ): Weighted average shares outstanding—basic 84,778 84,577 85,028 Dilutive effect of share equivalents 863 891 685 Weighted average shares outstanding and share equivalents—diluted 85,641 85,468 85,713 Options to purchase the following number of shares were outstanding but excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the combined exercise prices, unamortized fair values, and assumed tax benefits upon exercise were greater than the average market price for the shares during the periods, so including these options would be anti-dilutive: Years ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Number of ordinary share options ( shares in thousands ) 285 352 393 Additional Authorized Shares The Company has an additional authorized share capital of 50,000,000 preferred shares of $0.001 par value each, plus 25,000 deferred ordinary shares of €1.00 par value each, in order to satisfy minimum statutory capital requirements for all Irish public limited companies. |

Schedule of Treasury Stock by Class [Text Block] | 13. REPURCHASE OF ORDINARY SHARES On August 9, 2016, STERIS UK announced that its Board of Directors had authorized the purchase of up to $300,000 (net of taxes, fees and commissions) of our ordinary shares. As a result of the Redomiciliation, that share repurchase authorization terminated. On May 7, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized the continuation of the share repurchase program resulting in a share repurchase authorization of $78,979 (net of taxes, fees and commissions). On July 30, 2019, our Board of Directors approved an increase to the May 7, 2019 authorization of an additional amount of $300,000 (net of taxes, fees and commissions). As of March 31, 2020, there was approximately $338,979 (net of taxes, fees and commissions) of remaining availability under the authorization. Under the authorizations, the Company may repurchase its shares from time to time through open market purchases, including 10b5-1 plans. Any repurchase program may be activated, suspended or discontinued at any time. During fiscal 2020, we repurchased 273,259 of our ordinary shares for the aggregate amount of $40,000 (net of fees and commissions) pursuant to the 2019 authorizations. During fiscal 2019, we repurchased 651,093 of our ordinary shares for the aggregate amount of $72,082 (net of fees and commissions) pursuant to the 2016 authorization. During fiscal 2018, we repurchased 664,963 of our ordinary shares for the aggregate amount of $58,939 (net of fees and commissions) pursuant to the 2016 authorization. |

Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract] | |
Share-Based Compensation | 14. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION We maintain a long-term incentive plan that makes available shares for grants, at the discretion of the Board of Directors or Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, to officers, directors, and key employees in the form of stock options, restricted shares, restricted share units, stock appreciation rights and share grants. We satisfy share award incentives through the issuance of new ordinary shares. Stock options provide the right to purchase our shares at the market price on the date of grant, or for options granted to employees in fiscal 2019 and thereafter, 110% of the market price on the date of grant, subject to the terms of the plan and agreements. Generally, one-fourth of the stock options granted to employees become exercisable for each full year of employment following the grant date. Stock options granted generally expire 10 years after the grant date, or in some cases earlier if the option holder is no longer employed by us. Restricted shares and restricted share units generally cliff vest after a four year period or vest in tranches of one-fourth of the number granted for each year of employment after the grant date. As of March 31, 2020, 3,961,998 shares remained available for grant under the long-term incentive plan. The fair value of share-based stock option compensation awards was estimated at their grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. This model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable, characteristics that are not present in our option grants. If the model permitted consideration of the unique characteristics of employee stock options, the resulting estimate of the fair value of the stock options could be different. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The expense is classified as cost of goods sold or selling, general and administrative expenses in a manner consistent with the employee’s compensation and benefits. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for options granted during fiscal 2020, fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018: Fiscal 2020 Fiscal 2019 Fiscal 2018 Risk-free interest rate 2.26 % 2.64 % 2.01 % Expected life of options 6.2 years 6.2 years 5.7 years Expected dividend yield of stock 1.22 % 1.47 % 1.58 % Expected volatility of stock 20.27 % 19.91 % 22.08 % The risk-free interest rate is based upon the U.S. Treasury yield curve. The expected life of options is reflective of historical experience, vesting schedules and contractual terms. The expected dividend yield of stock represents our best estimate of the expected future dividend yield. The expected volatility of stock is derived by referring to our historical stock prices over a time frame similar to that of the expected life of the grant. An estimated forfeiture rate of 2.77%, 2.37% and 2.25% was applied in fiscal 2020, 2019 and 2018 respectively. This rate is calculated based upon historical activity and represents an estimate of the granted options not expected to vest. If actual forfeitures differ from this calculated rate, we may be required to make additional adjustments to compensation expense in future periods. The assumptions used above are reviewed at the time of each significant option grant, or at least annually. A summary of share option activity is as follows: Number of Weighted Average Aggregate Outstanding at March 31, 2019 2,104,685 $ 72.82 Granted 345,138 147.22 Exercised (613,086) 57.29 Forfeited (40,611) 122.61 Outstanding at March 31, 2020 1,796,126 $ 91.29 6.8 years $ 89,800 Exercisable at March 31, 2020 922,708 $ 69.52 5.6 years $ 65,136 We estimate that 857,860 of the non-vested stock options outstanding at March 31, 2020 will ultimately vest. The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pre-tax difference between the $139.97 closing price of our ordinary shares on March 31, 2020 over the exercise prices of the stock options, multiplied by the number of options outstanding or outstanding and exercisable, as applicable. The aggregate intrinsic value is not recorded for financial accounting purposes and the value changes daily based on the daily changes in the fair market value of our ordinary shares. The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $57,683, $25,371 and $16,096, respectively. Net cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options were $34,731, $13,308 and $11,093 for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The tax benefit from stock option exercises was $16,440, $8,306 and $6,581 for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The weighted average grant date fair value of stock option grants was $23.52, $18.12 and $15.51 for the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Stock appreciation rights (“SARS”) carry generally the same terms and vesting requirements as stock options except that they are settled in cash upon exercise and therefore, are classified as liabilities. The fair value of the outstanding SARS as of March 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018 was $544, $889, and $1,437, respectively. The fair value of outstanding SARS is revalued at each reporting date and the related liability and expense are adjusted appropriately. A summary of the non-vested restricted share activity is presented below: Number of Number of Restricted Share Units Weighted-Average Non-vested at March 31, 2019 676,373 33,219 $ 80.86 Granted 156,901 14,553 135.86 Vested (221,606) (14,999) 74.63 Forfeited (35,838) (1,879) 93.56 Non-vested at March 31, 2020 575,830 30,894 $ 98.07 Restricted shares granted are valued based on the closing stock price at the grant date. The value of restricted shares and units that vested during fiscal 2020 was $17,657. As of March 31, 2020, there was a total of $42,056 in unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation granted under our share-based compensation plans. We expect to recognize the cost over a weighted average period of 2.1 years. |

Product Warranty Disclosure [Text Block] | 15. FINANCIAL AND OTHER GUARANTEES We generally offer a limited parts and labor warranty on capital equipment. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending on the product sold and the countries where we conduct business. We record a liability for the estimated cost of product warranties at the time product revenues are recognized. The amounts we expect to incur on behalf of our Customers for the future estimated cost of these warranties are recorded as a current liability on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Factors that affect the amount of our warranty liability include the number and type of installed units, historical and anticipated rates of product failures, and material and service costs per claim. We periodically assess the adequacy of our recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary. Changes in our warranty liability during the periods presented are as follows: Years Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Balance, Beginning of Year $ 7,194 $ 6,872 $ 6,861 Warranties issued during the period 12,311 11,177 12,305 Settlements made during the period (12,124) (10,855) (12,294) Balance, End of Year $ 7,381 $ 7,194 $ 6,872 |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | 16. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING From time to time, we enter into forward contracts to hedge potential foreign currency gains and losses that arise from transactions denominated in foreign currencies, including inter-company transactions. We may also enter into commodity swap contracts to hedge price changes in nickel that impact raw materials included in our cost of revenues. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. These contracts are not designated as hedging instruments and do not receive hedge accounting treatment; therefore, changes in their fair value are not deferred but are recognized immediately in the Consolidated Statements of Income. At March 31, 2020, we held a foreign currency forward contract to buy 6.0 million Canadian dollars. At March 31, 2020, we held commodity swap contracts to buy 715.2 thousand pounds of nickel.

Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | 17. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or that would be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We estimate the fair value of financial assets and liabilities using available market information and generally accepted valuation methodologies. The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into three tiers. These tiers include Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring the entity to develop its own assumptions. The following table shows the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities at March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019: Fair Value Measurements At March 31, Carrying Value Quoted Prices Significant Other Significant Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019 2020 2019 Assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 319,581 $ 220,633 $ 319,581 $ 220,633 $ — $ — $ — $ — Forward and swap contracts (1) 124 552 — — 124 552 — — Equity investments (2) 9,624 13,873 9,624 13,873 — — — — Other investments 2,507 2,545 2,507 2,545 — — — — Liabilities: Forward and swap contracts (1) $ 912 $ 278 $ — $ — $ 912 $ 278 $ — $ — Deferred compensation plans (2) 1,475 1,564 1,475 1,564 — — — — Long term debt (3) 1,150,521 1,183,227 — — 1,143,978 1,200,558 — — Contingent consideration obligations (4) 15,988 5,950 — — — — 15,988 5,950 (1) The fair values of forward and swap contracts are based on period-end forward rates and reflect the value of the amount that we would pay or receive for the contracts involving the same notional amounts and maturity dates. (2) We maintain a frozen domestic non-qualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees, which allowed for the deferral of payment of previously earned compensation for an employee-specified term or until retirement or termination. Amounts deferred can be allocated to various hypothetical investment options (compensation deferrals have been frozen under the plan). We hold investments to satisfy the future obligations of the plan. Employees who made deferrals are entitled to receive distributions of their hypothetical account balances (amounts deferred, together with earnings (losses)). We also hold an investment in the common stock of Servizi Italia, S.p.A, a leading provider of integrated linen washing and outsourced sterile processing services to hospital Customers. Beginning in fiscal 2019, changes in the fair value of these investments are recorded in the "Interest income and miscellaneous expense line" of the Consolidated Statement of Income. During fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 we recorded losses of $3,579 and $2,731, respectively, related to these investments. (3) We estimate the fair value of our long-term debt using discounted cash flow analyses, based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. (4) Contingent consideration obligations arise from prior business acquisitions. The fair values are based on discounted cash flow analyses reflecting the possible achievement of specified performance measures or events and captures the contractual nature of the contingencies, commercial risk, and the time value of money. Contingent consideration obligations are classified in the consolidated balance sheets as accrued expense (short-term) and other liabilities (long-term), as appropriate based on the contractual payment dates. The changes in Level 3 assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized as follows: Contingent Consideration Balance at March 31, 2018 $ 8,068 Payments (691) Reductions and adjustments (1,466) Foreign currency translation adjustments 39 Balance at March 31, 2019 $ 5,950 Additions 9,907 Foreign currency translation adjustments 131 Balance at March 31, 2020 $ 15,988 |

We adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and the subsequently issued amendments on April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach to contracts that were not completed as of April 1, 2018. Under this standard, certain capital equipment contracts are comprised of a single performance obligation, resulting in the deferral of the corresponding capital equipment revenue and cost of revenues until installation is complete. Previously, these capital equipment revenues and cost of revenues were recognized based upon shipping terms. We recorded a cumulative effect adjustment in the beginning of fiscal 2019 to Retained earnings of $5,637, based on the terms and conditions for certain open capital equipment contracts as of March 31, 2018. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract are satisfied and control of the promised products or services have transferred to the Customer. Revenues are measured at the amount of consideration that we expect to be paid in exchange for the products or services. Product revenue is recognized when control passes to the Customer, which is generally based on contract or shipping terms. Service revenue is recognized when the Customer benefits from the service, which occurs either upon completion of the service or as it is provided to the Customer. Our Customers include end users as well as dealers and distributors who market and sell our products. Our revenue is not contingent upon resale by the dealer or distributor, and we have no further obligations related to bringing about resale. Our standard return and restocking fee policies are applied to sales of products. Shipping and handling costs charged to Customers are included in Product revenues. The associated expenses are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in Cost of revenues. Revenues are reported net of sales and value-added taxes collected from Customers. We have individual Customer contracts that offer discounted pricing. Dealers and distributors may be offered sales incentives in the form of rebates. We reduce revenue for discounts and estimated returns, rebates, and other similar allowances in the same period the related revenues are recorded. The reduction in revenue for these items is estimated based on historical experience and trend analysis to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Estimated returns are recorded gross on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In transactions that contain multiple performance obligations, such as when products, maintenance services, and other services are combined, we recognize revenue as each product is delivered or service is provided to the Customer. We allocate the total arrangement consideration to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price, which is the price for the product or service when it is sold separately. Payment terms vary by the type and location of the Customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. We do not evaluate whether the selling price contains a financing component for contracts that have a duration of less than one year. We do not capitalize sales commissions as substantially all of our sales commission programs have an amortization period of one year or less. Certain costs to fulfill a contract are capitalized and amortized over the term of the contract if they are recoverable, directly related to a contract and generate resources that we will use to fulfill the contract in the future. At March 31, 2020, assets related to costs to fulfill a contract were not material to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Note 11, titled "Business Segment Information" for disaggregation of revenue. Product Revenue Product revenues consist of revenues generated from sales of consumables and capital equipment. These contracts are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and may include a Distributor, Dealer or Group Purchasing Organization ("GPO") agreement. We recognize revenue for sales of product when control passes to the Customer, which generally occurs either when the products are shipped or when they are received by the Customer. Revenue related to certain capital equipment products is deferred until installation is complete as the capital equipment and installation are highly integrated and form a single performance obligation. Service Revenue Within our Healthcare and Life Sciences segments, service revenues consist of revenue generated from parts and labor associated with the maintenance, repair and installation of capital equipment. These contracts are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and may include a Distributor, Dealer, or GPO agreement. For maintenance, repair and installation of capital equipment, revenue is recognized upon completion of the service. Healthcare service revenues also include outsourced reprocessing services and instrument repairs. Contracts for outsourced reprocessing services are primarily based on an agreement with a Customer, ranging in length from several months to 15 years. Outsourced reprocessing services revenue is recognized ratably over the contract term using a time-based input measure, adjusted for volume and other performance metrics, to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Contracts for instrument repairs are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order, and the associated revenue is recognized upon completion of the repair. We also offer preventive maintenance and separately priced extended warranty agreements to our Customers, which require us to maintain and repair our products over the duration of the contract. Generally, these contract terms are cancellable without penalty and range from one to five years. Amounts received under these Customer contracts are initially recorded as a service liability and are recognized as service revenue ratably over the contract term using a time-based input measure. Within our Applied Sterilization Technologies segment, service revenues include contract sterilization and laboratory services. Sales contracts for contract sterilization and laboratory services are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and associated Customer agreement and revenues are generally recognized upon completion of the service. Contract Liabilities Payments received from Customers are based on invoices or billing schedules as established in contracts with Customers. Deferred revenue is recorded when payment is received in advance of performance under the contract. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue upon completion of the performance obligation, which generally occurs within one year. During fiscal 2020, we recognized revenue of $48,602 that was included in our contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. During fiscal 2019, we recognized revenue of $30,169 that was included in our contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. Refer to Note 7, titled "Additional Consolidated Balance Sheet Information" for Deferred revenue balances. Service Liabilities Payments received in advance of performance for cancelable preventative maintenance and separately priced extended warranty contracts are recorded as service liabilities. Service liabilities are recognized as revenue as performance is rendered under the contract. Prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, these amounts were included in Deferred revenues. Refer to Note 7, titled "Additional Consolidated Balance Sheet Information" for Service liability balances. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations reflect only the performance obligations related to agreements for which we have a firm commitment from a Customer to purchase, and exclude variable consideration related to unsatisfied performance obligations. With regard to products, these remaining performance obligations include capital equipment and consumable orders which have not shipped. With regard to service, these remaining performance obligations primarily include installation, certification, and outsourced reprocessing services. As of March 31, 2020, the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was approximately $940,000. We expect to recognize approximately 49% of the transaction price within one year and approximately 45% beyond one year. The remainder has yet to be scheduled for delivery. |
Consolidation, Policy | Principles of Consolidation. We use the consolidation method to report our investment in our subsidiaries. Therefore, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. We eliminate inter-company accounts and transactions when we consolidate these accounts. Investments in equity of unconsolidated affiliates, over which the Company has significant influence, but not control, over the financial and operating polices, are accounted for primarily using the equity method. These investments are immaterial to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements. |
Use of Estimates, Policy | Use of Estimates. We make certain estimates and assumptions when preparing financial statements according to U.S. GAAP that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the financial statement dates and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. These estimates and assumptions involve judgments with respect to many factors that are difficult to predict and are beyond our control. Actual results could be materially different from these estimates. We revise the estimates and assumptions as new information becomes available. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy | Cash Equivalents and Supplemental Cash Flow Information. Cash equivalents are all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. We invest our excess cash in short-term instruments including money market funds and time deposits with major banks and financial institutions. We select investments in accordance with the criteria established in our investment policy. Our investment policy specifies, among other things, maturity, credit quality and concentration restrictions with the objective of preserving capital and maintaining adequate liquidity. Information supplementing our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows is as follows: Years Ended March 31, 2020 2019 2018 Cash paid during the year for: Interest $ 38,021 $ 44,118 $ 48,663 Income taxes 92,462 64,668 85,629 Cash received during the year for income tax refunds 4,378 2,189 7,747 |
Trade and Other Accounts Receivable, Policy | Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable are presented at their face amount, less allowances for sales returns and uncollectible accounts. Accounts receivable consist of amounts billed and currently due from Customers and amounts earned but unbilled. We generally obtain and perfect security interest in products sold in the United States when we have a concern with the Customer's risk profile. We maintain an allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable for estimated losses in the collection of amounts owed by Customers. We estimate the allowance based on analyzing a number of factors, including amounts written off historically, Customer payment practices, and general economic conditions. We also analyze significant Customer accounts on a regular basis and record a specific allowance when we become aware of a specific Customer’s inability to pay. As a result, the related accounts receivable are reduced to an amount that we reasonably believe is collectible. |
Inventory, Policy | Inventories, net. Inventories are stated at the lower of their cost or market value. We determine cost based upon a combination of the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) and first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) cost methods. For inventories valued using the LIFO method, we believe that the use of the LIFO method results in a matching of current costs and revenues. Inventories valued using the LIFO method represented approximately 25.3% and 25.2% of total inventories at March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Inventory costs include material, labor, and overhead. If we had used only the FIFO method of inventory costing, inventories would have been $16,937 and $16,757 higher than those reported at March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We review inventory on an ongoing basis, considering factors such as deterioration, obsolescence, and other items. We record an allowance for estimated losses when the facts and circumstances indicate that particular inventories will not be usable. If future market conditions vary from those projected, and our estimates prove to be inaccurate, we may be required to write-down inventory values and record an adjustment to cost of revenues. |
Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy | Property, Plant, and Equipment. Our property, plant, and equipment consists of land and land improvements, buildings and leasehold improvements, machinery and equipment, information systems, radioisotope (cobalt-60), and construction in progress. Property, plant, and equipment are presented at cost less accumulated depreciation and depletion. We capitalize additions and improvements. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as they are incurred. Land is not depreciated and construction in progress is not depreciated until placed in service. Depreciation of most assets is computed on the cost less the estimated salvage value by using the straight-line method over the estimated remaining useful lives. Depletion of radioisotope is computed using the annual decay factor of the material, which is similar to the sum-of-the-years-digits method. We generally depreciate or deplete property, plant, and equipment over the useful lives presented in the following table: Asset Type Useful Life Land improvements 3-40 Buildings and leasehold improvements 2-50 Machinery and equipment 2-20 Information Systems 2-20 Radioisotope (cobalt-60) 20 When we sell, retire, or dispose of property, plant, and equipment, we remove the asset’s cost and accumulated depreciation from our Consolidated Balance Sheet. We recognize the net gain or loss on the sale or disposition in the Consolidated Statements of Income in the period when the transaction occurs. |
Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy | Identifiable Intangible Assets. Our identifiable intangible assets include product technology rights, trademarks, licenses, and Customer and vendor relationships. We record these assets at cost, or when acquired as part of a business acquisition, at estimated fair value. We generally amortize identifiable intangible assets over periods ranging from 5 to 20 years using the straight-line method. Our intangible assets also include indefinite lived assets including certain trademarks and tradenames that were acquired in connection with business combinations. These assets are tested at least annually for impairment. Goodwill. We perform our annual impairment test for goodwill in the third quarter of each year. We may consider qualitative indicators of the fair value of a reporting unit when it is unlikely that a reporting unit has impaired goodwill. We may also utilize a discounted cash flow analysis that requires certain assumptions and estimates be made regarding market conditions and our future profitability. We review the book value compared to the fair value at the reporting unit level. We calculate the fair value of our reporting units based on the present value of estimated future cash flows. Management's judgment is necessary to evaluate the impact of operating and macroeconomic changes and to estimate future cash flows to measure fair value. Assumptions used in our impairment evaluations, such as forecasted growth rates and cost of capital, are consistent with internal projections, strategic plans, and operating plans. We believe such assumptions and estimates are also comparable to those that would be used by other market place participants. |
Investment, Policy | Investments. Investments in marketable securities are stated at fair value and are included in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Following the fiscal 2019 adoption of ASU 2016-01, "Financial Instruments - Overall - Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities, changes in the fair value of these investments are recorded in the "Interest income and miscellaneous expense line" of the Consolidated Statement of Income. |
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, Policy | Asset Impairment Losses. Property, plant, equipment, and identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when indicators of impairment exist and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Impaired assets are recorded at the lower of carrying value or estimated fair value. We monitor for such indicators on an ongoing basis and if an impairment exists, we record the loss in the Consolidated Statements of Income during that period. |
Asset Retirement Obligation [Policy Text Block] | Asset Retirement Obligations. We incur retirement obligations for certain assets. We record initial liabilities for the asset retirement obligations ("ARO") at fair value. Recognition of ARO includes: estimating the present value of a liability and offsetting asset, the subsequent accretion of that liability and depletion of the asset, and a periodic review of the ARO liability estimates and discount rates used in the analysis. We provide additional information about our asset retirement obligations in Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Property, Plant and Equipment.” |
Business Combinations Policy | Acquisitions of Business. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are accounted for at fair value on the date of acquisition. Costs related to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. |
Liability Reserve Estimate, Policy | Self-Insurance Liabilities. We record a liability for self-insured risks that we retain for general and product liabilities, workers’ compensation, and automobile liabilities based on actuarial calculations. We use our historical loss experience and actuarial methods to calculate the liability. This liability includes estimates for both losses and incurred but not reported claims. We review the assumptions used to calculate the estimated liability at least annually to evaluate the adequacy of the amount recorded. We maintain insurance policies to cover losses greater than our estimated liability, which are subject to the terms and conditions of those policies. We are also self-insured for certain employee medical claims. We estimate a liability for incurred but not reported claims based upon recent claims experience. |
Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Policy | Benefit Plans. We sponsor defined benefit pension plans. We also sponsor a post-retirement benefits plan for certain former employees. We determine our costs and obligations related to these plans by evaluating input from third-party professional advisers. These costs and obligations are affected by assumptions including the discount rate, expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, the annual rate of change in compensation for eligible employees, estimated changes in costs of healthcare benefits, and other factors. We review the assumptions used on an annual basis. We recognize an asset for the overfunded status or a liability for the underfunded status of defined benefit pension and post-retirement benefits plans in our consolidated balance sheets. This amount is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation (the projected benefit obligation for pension plans and the accumulated post-retirement benefit obligation for other post-retirement benefit plans). Changes in the funded status of the plans are recorded in other comprehensive income in the year they occur. We measure plan assets and obligations as of the balance sheet date. We provide additional information about our pension and other post-retirement benefits plans in Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Benefit Plans.” |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy | Fair Value of Financial Instruments. Except for long-term debt, our financial instruments are highly liquid or have short-term maturities. We provide additional information about the fair value of our financial instruments in Note 17 titled, “Fair Value Measurements.” |
Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy | Foreign Currency Translation. Most of our operations use their local currency as their functional currency. Financial statements of subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and a weighted average exchange rate for each period for revenues, expenses, gains and losses. Translation adjustments for subsidiaries whose local currency is their functional currency are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within equity. Transaction gains and losses resulting from fluctuations in currency exchange rates on transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are recognized as incurred in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Income, except for certain inter-company balances designated as long-term in nature. |
Derivatives, Policy | Forward and Swap Contracts. We enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies, including inter-company transactions.We may also enter into commodity swap contracts to hedge price changes in nickel that impact raw materials included in our cost of revenues. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. These contracts are marked to market, with gains and losses recognized within “Selling, general, and administrative expenses” or "Cost of revenues" in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. |
Standard Product Warranty, Policy | Warranty. Warranties are provided on the sale of certain of our products and services and an accrual for estimated future claims is recorded at the time revenue is recognized. We estimate warranty expense based primarily on historical warranty claim experience. |
Shipping and Handling Cost, Policy | Shipping and Handling. We record shipping and handling costs in costs of revenues. Shipping and handling costs charged to Customers are recorded as revenues in the period the product revenues are recognized. |
Advertising Costs, Policy | Advertising Expenses. Costs incurred for communicating, advertising and promoting our products are generally expensed when incurred as a component of Selling, General and Administrative Expense. We incurred $12,652, $10,691, and $10,886 of advertising costs during the years ended March 31, 2020, 2019, and 2018, respectively. |
Research and Development Expense, Policy | Research and Development. We incur research and development costs associated with commercial products and expense these costs as incurred. If a Customer reimburses us for research and development costs, the costs are charged to the related contracts as costs of revenues. |
Income Tax, Policy | Income Taxes. We defer income taxes for all temporary differences between pre-tax financial and taxable income and between the book and tax basis of assets and liabilities. We record valuation allowances to reduce net deferred tax assets to an amount that we expect will more-likely-than-not be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available information, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and if applicable, any carryback claims that can be filed. In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes and the effective tax rate. We evaluate uncertain tax positions in accordance with a two-step process. The first step is recognition: The determination of whether or not it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. In evaluating whether a tax position has met the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we presume that the position will be examined by the appropriate tax authority and that the tax authority will have full knowledge of all relevant information. The second step is measurement: A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold is measured to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The measurement process requires the determination of the range of possible settlement amounts and the probability of achieving each of the possible settlements. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. No tax benefits are recognized for positions that do not meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. We describe income taxes further in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Income Taxes.” |
Share-based Compensation, Option and Incentive Plans Policy | Share-Based Compensation. We describe share-based compensation in Note 14 to our consolidated financial statements titled, “Share-Based Compensation.” We measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. We record liability awards at fair value each reporting period and the change in fair value is reflected as share-based compensation expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income. The expense is classified as cost of goods sold, selling, general and administrative expenses or research and development expenses in a manner consistent with the employee’s compensation and benefits. These costs are recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Income over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. |
Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities or Restructurings, Policy | Restructuring. We recognize restructuring expenses as incurred. Asset impairment and accelerated depreciation expenses primarily relate to inventory write-downs for rationalized products and adjustments in the carrying value of the related facilities and machinery and equipment to their estimated fair value. In addition, the remaining useful lives of other property, plant, and equipment associated with the related operations are reevaluated based on the respective restructuring plan, which may result in the acceleration of depreciation and amortization of certain assets |
New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block] | Recently Issued Accounting Standards Impacting the Company are presented in the following table: Standard Date of Issuance Description Date of Adoption Effect on the financial statements or other significant matters Standards that have recently been adopted ASU 2016-02, "Leases" February 2016 The standard requires lessees to record all leases, whether finance or operating, on the balance sheet. An asset will be recorded to represent the right to use the leased asset, and a liability will be recorded to represent the lease obligation. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within that period. Early adoption is permitted. First Quarter Fiscal 2020 We adopted this standard, and related amendments, effective April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition method and have not restated prior periods. We elected to use the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allows the carry forward of historical lease classification of existing leases. We also elected the practical expedient related to land easements, allowing us to carry forward our accounting treatment for land easements on existing or expired agreements. We made an accounting policy election to not recognize lease assets or liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less and elected to not separate non-lease components from lease components to which they relate for all asset classes. We recorded lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases totaling $120,562. The adoption of the standard did not have a material impact to the Consolidated Statements of Income or Cash Flows. Additional information is disclosed in Note 10 under the heading "Leases". ASU 2017-12 August 2017 The standard provides targeted improvements to accounting for hedging activities by expanding an entity’s ability to hedge non-financial and financial risk components and reduce complexity in fair value hedges of interest rate risk. The guidance eliminates the requirement to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness and generally requires the entire change in the fair value of a hedging instrument to be presented in the same income statement line as the hedged item. The guidance also eases certain documentation and assessment requirements and modifies the accounting for components excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted in any interim period after issuance of the standard. First Quarter Fiscal 2020 We adopted this standard effective April 1, 2019 with no material impact to our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact to our Consolidated Statements of Income will depend on the value of future hedging activities. ASU 2018-02 February 2018 The standard allows a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") and requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The underlying guidance requiring that the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income from continuing operations is not affected. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. First Quarter Fiscal 2020 We have elected not to reclassify the income tax effects of the TCJA from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI") to retained earnings. Our policy is to release income tax effects from AOCI when individual units of account are sold or terminated. Standards that have not yet been adopted ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" June 2016 The standard requires a financial asset (or group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. Credit losses relating to available-for-sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. N/A We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. ASU 2018-13 "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) Disclosure Framework- Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” August 2018 The standard modifies the disclosure requirements by adding, removing, and modifying certain required disclosures for fair value measurements for assets and liabilities disclosed within the fair value hierarchy. The standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. N/A We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements as it modifies disclosure requirements only. ASU 2018-14 "Compensation- Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans- General Topic (715-20): Disclosure Framework- Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans" August 2018 The standard modifies the disclosure requirements by adding, removing, and modifying certain required disclosures for employers that sponsor defined benefit pension or other post-retirement benefit plans. The standard also clarifies disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension plans relating to the projected benefit obligation and accumulated benefit obligation. The standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2019 and early adoption is permitted. N/A We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements as it modifies disclosure requirements only. ASU 2018-15 "Intangibles- Goodwill and Other- Internal Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract" August 2018 The standard aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or N/A We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. ASU 2019-12 "Income Taxes (Topic 740)" December 2019 The standard provides final guidance that simplifies the accounting for income taxes by eliminating certain exceptions to the guidance in ASC 740 related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The guidance simplifies accounting for franchise taxes and enacted changes in tax laws or rates and clarifies the accounting for transactions that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill. The standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020 and early adoption is permitted. N/A We are in the process of evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements. |

Lessee, Leases [Policy Text Block] | Leases We lease manufacturing, warehouse and office space, service facilities, vehicles, equipment and communication systems. Certain leases contain options that provide us with the ability to extend the lease term. Such options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. We made an accounting policy election to not recognize lease assets or lease liabilities for leases with a lease term of twelve months or less. We determine if an agreement contains a lease and classify our leases as operating or finance at the lease commencement date. Finance leases are generally those leases for which we will pay substantially all the underlying asset’s fair value or will use the asset for all or a major part of its economic life, including circumstances in which we will ultimately own the asset. Lease assets arising from finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, net and the liabilities are included in other liabilities. For finance leases, we recognize interest expense using the effective interest method and we recognize amortization expense on the lease asset over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the asset. Our finance leases are not material as of March 31, 2020 and for the twelve month period then ended. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. As most leases do not provide an implicit interest rate, we estimate an incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Our estimated incremental borrowing rate reflects a secured rate based on recent debt issuances, our estimated credit rating, lease term, as well as publicly available data for instruments with similar characteristics. For operating leases, we recognize lease cost on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. When accounting for leases, we combine payments for leased assets, related services and other components of a lease. |
Schedule of Rent Expense [Table Text Block] | The components of operating lease expense are as follows: Year Ended March 31, 2020 Fixed operating lease expense $ 28,252 Variable operating lease expense 5,449 Total operating lease expense $ 33,701 |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Impact of ASC 2014-09 Adoption [Table Text Block] | Revenue Recognition and Associated Liabilities. We adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and the subsequently issued amendments on April 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach to contracts that were not completed as of April 1, 2018. Under this standard, certain capital equipment contracts are comprised of a single performance obligation, resulting in the deferral of the corresponding capital equipment revenue and cost of revenues until installation is complete. Previously, these capital equipment revenues and cost of revenues were recognized based upon shipping terms. We recorded a cumulative effect adjustment in the beginning of fiscal 2019 to Retained earnings of $5,637, based on the terms and conditions for certain open capital equipment contracts as of March 31, 2018. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract are satisfied and control of the promised products or services have transferred to the Customer. Revenues are measured at the amount of consideration that we expect to be paid in exchange for the products or services. Product revenue is recognized when control passes to the Customer, which is generally based on contract or shipping terms. Service revenue is recognized when the Customer benefits from the service, which occurs either upon completion of the service or as it is provided to the Customer. Our Customers include end users as well as dealers and distributors who market and sell our products. Our revenue is not contingent upon resale by the dealer or distributor, and we have no further obligations related to bringing about resale. Our standard return and restocking fee policies are applied to sales of products. Shipping and handling costs charged to Customers are included in Product revenues. The associated expenses are treated as fulfillment costs and are included in Cost of revenues. Revenues are reported net of sales and value-added taxes collected from Customers. We have individual Customer contracts that offer discounted pricing. Dealers and distributors may be offered sales incentives in the form of rebates. We reduce revenue for discounts and estimated returns, rebates, and other similar allowances in the same period the related revenues are recorded. The reduction in revenue for these items is estimated based on historical experience and trend analysis to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Estimated returns are recorded gross on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In transactions that contain multiple performance obligations, such as when products, maintenance services, and other services are combined, we recognize revenue as each product is delivered or service is provided to the Customer. We allocate the total arrangement consideration to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price, which is the price for the product or service when it is sold separately. Payment terms vary by the type and location of the Customer and the products or services offered. Generally, the time between when revenue is recognized and when payment is due is not significant. We do not evaluate whether the selling price contains a financing component for contracts that have a duration of less than one year. We do not capitalize sales commissions as substantially all of our sales commission programs have an amortization period of one year or less. Certain costs to fulfill a contract are capitalized and amortized over the term of the contract if they are recoverable, directly related to a contract and generate resources that we will use to fulfill the contract in the future. At March 31, 2020, assets related to costs to fulfill a contract were not material to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to Note 11, titled "Business Segment Information" for disaggregation of revenue. Product Revenue Product revenues consist of revenues generated from sales of consumables and capital equipment. These contracts are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and may include a Distributor, Dealer or Group Purchasing Organization ("GPO") agreement. We recognize revenue for sales of product when control passes to the Customer, which generally occurs either when the products are shipped or when they are received by the Customer. Revenue related to certain capital equipment products is deferred until installation is complete as the capital equipment and installation are highly integrated and form a single performance obligation. Service Revenue Within our Healthcare and Life Sciences segments, service revenues consist of revenue generated from parts and labor associated with the maintenance, repair and installation of capital equipment. These contracts are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and may include a Distributor, Dealer, or GPO agreement. For maintenance, repair and installation of capital equipment, revenue is recognized upon completion of the service. Healthcare service revenues also include outsourced reprocessing services and instrument repairs. Contracts for outsourced reprocessing services are primarily based on an agreement with a Customer, ranging in length from several months to 15 years. Outsourced reprocessing services revenue is recognized ratably over the contract term using a time-based input measure, adjusted for volume and other performance metrics, to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue will not occur. Contracts for instrument repairs are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order, and the associated revenue is recognized upon completion of the repair. We also offer preventive maintenance and separately priced extended warranty agreements to our Customers, which require us to maintain and repair our products over the duration of the contract. Generally, these contract terms are cancellable without penalty and range from one to five years. Amounts received under these Customer contracts are initially recorded as a service liability and are recognized as service revenue ratably over the contract term using a time-based input measure. Within our Applied Sterilization Technologies segment, service revenues include contract sterilization and laboratory services. Sales contracts for contract sterilization and laboratory services are primarily based on a Customer’s purchase order and associated Customer agreement and revenues are generally recognized upon completion of the service. Contract Liabilities Payments received from Customers are based on invoices or billing schedules as established in contracts with Customers. Deferred revenue is recorded when payment is received in advance of performance under the contract. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue upon completion of the performance obligation, which generally occurs within one year. During fiscal 2020, we recognized revenue of $48,602 that was included in our contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. During fiscal 2019, we recognized revenue of $30,169 that was included in our contract liability balance at the beginning of the period. Refer to Note 7, titled "Additional Consolidated Balance Sheet Information" for Deferred revenue balances. Service Liabilities Payments received in advance of performance for cancelable preventative maintenance and separately priced extended warranty contracts are recorded as service liabilities. Service liabilities are recognized as revenue as performance is rendered under the contract. Prior to the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, these amounts were included in Deferred revenues. Refer to Note 7, titled "Additional Consolidated Balance Sheet Information" for Service liability balances. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations reflect only the performance obligations related to agreements for which we have a firm commitment from a Customer to purchase, and exclude variable consideration related to unsatisfied performance obligations. With regard to products, these remaining performance obligations include capital equipment and consumable orders which have not shipped. With regard to service, these remaining performance obligations primarily include installation, certification, and outsourced reprocessing services. As of March 31, 2020, the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations was approximately $940,000. We expect to recognize approximately 49% of the transaction price within one year and approximately 45% beyond one year. The remainder has yet to be scheduled for delivery. |

(2) We maintain a frozen domestic non-qualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees, which allowed for the deferral of payment of previously earned compensation for an employee-specified term or until retirement or termination. Amounts deferred can be allocated to various hypothetical investment options (compensation deferrals have been frozen under the plan). We hold investments to satisfy the future obligations of the plan. Employees who made deferrals are entitled to receive distributions of their hypothetical account balances (amounts deferred, together with earnings (losses)). We also hold an investment in the common stock of Servizi Italia, S.p.A, a leading provider of integrated linen washing and outsourced sterile processing services to hospital Customers. Beginning in fiscal 2019, changes in the fair value of these investments are recorded in the "Interest income and miscellaneous expense line" of the Consolidated Statement of Income. During fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2019 we recorded losses of $3,579 and $2,731, respectively, related to these investments. (3) We estimate the fair value of our long-term debt using discounted cash flow analyses, based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. (4) Contingent consideration obligations arise from prior business acquisitions. The fair values are based on discounted cash flow analyses reflecting the possible achievement of specified performance measures or events and captures the contractual nature of the contingencies, commercial risk, and the time value of money. Contingent consideration obligations are classified in the consolidated balance sheets as accrued expense (short-term) and other liabilities (long-term), as appropriate based on the contractual payment dates. |

[2] | We maintain a frozen domestic non-qualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees, which allowed for the deferral of payment of previously earned compensation for an employee-specified term or until retirement or termination. Amounts deferred can be allocated to various hypothetical investment options (compensation deferrals have been frozen under the plan). We hold investments to satisfy the future obligations of the plan. Employees who made deferrals are entitled to receive distributions of their hypothetical account balances (amounts deferred, together with earnings (losses)). We also hold an investment in the common stock of Servizi Italia, S.p.A, a leading provider of integrated linen washing and outsourced sterile processing services to hospital Customers. Beginning in fiscal 2019, changes in the fair value of these investments are recorded in the "Interest income and miscellaneous expense line" of the Consolidated Statement of Income | |||||
[3] | We estimate the fair value of our long-term debt using discounted cash flow analyses, based on our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. | |||||
[4] | Contingent consideration obligations arise from prior business acquisitions. The fair values are based on discounted cash flow analyses reflecting the possible achievement of specified performance measures or events and captures the contractual nature of the contingencies, commercial risk, and the time value of money. Contingent consideration obligations are classified in the consolidated balance sheets as accrued expense (short-term) and other liabilities (long-term), as appropriate based on the contractual payment dates. |
