Selection of medical packaging materials

Medical packaging should choose suitable packaging materials and packaging methods. In addition to the sterilization method, the packaging method must also consider the sterilization items. A lot of research has been conducted on this, and there are many kinds of medical packaging materials on the market.
           To understand sterilization methods and packaging requirements can help us make the right decisions when choosing packaging materials. Only designed specifically for sterilization and approved for use by FDA approved packaging materials. For example, Anqing Kangmingna Packaging Co., Ltd has obtained FDA certification in 2017. And the products include sterilization reel, steam tape, sterilization packaging, tyvek pouch etc. In addition to another sterilization methods, there are following basic requirements:
Steam sterilization packaging material must be with stand the high temperature of 121 °C - 135 °C, air discharge, penetration of water vapor, and keep drying of packaging materials in contents;
Ethylene Oxide(EO) Sterilization Packaging materials must allow the penetration and discharge of EO gas (ventilation process);
Heat-sealing sterilization packaging materials must withstand high temperatures of 160°C-204°C within 2 – 3 hours without melting, burning or other reactions;
Plasma sterilization packaging materials must withstand extreme vacuum, do not absorb Sterilizer, do not affect the sterilization cycle, and not detrimental to the items to be sterilized.
In addition to choosing the right packaging materials, we should also understand how to properly use the packaging materials to achieve the purpose of sterilizing agent penetration, sterile barrier, and aseptic opening of packaging materials.

Reference Standard For Seal Verification of Sterilization Pouches For Medical Devices

With the increasing demand for  sterilization pouches  of medical devices, quality and safety inspection have become more and more stringent. sterilization pouches of medical devices (blister box +  tyvek roll  material,  sterilization paper bag , etc.) as a form of packaging directly in contact with the device and used to block microorganisms. No matter what form of packaging, it has two characteristics, which can meet the sterilization operation and remain sterile until the transportation conditions are used. Therefore, relevant departments began to focus on the review requirements of sterile packaging and make specific requirements for its performance and quality.   As we all know, GB/ t19633-2005 "packaging of ultimately sterilized medical devices" is one of the authoritative standards in the current sterile packaging standards. It is equivalent to iso11607-2003 "packaging of ultimately sterilized medical devices". Clarify the basic performance req...

Definition And Use Of Sterilization Or Chemical Indicator

  Sterilization indicator  tape and label   Definition: Wrinkle paper or label paper as the base material, coated with color-changing ink as sterilization indicator, back coated with pressure sensitive adhesive.  The indicating tape used for chemical monitoring outside the pressure steam  sterilization package , when reaching certain sterilization conditions 121℃, 20 minutes or 132℃, 3 minutes, the chemical indicating stripe on the back base of wrinkled paper will change from light yellow to black.   USES:   1. Used to mark whether the package has been treated by pressure steam sterilization process.   2.
