The increasing importance of infection control in life science industries is placing greater focus on sterilization technologies. New regulatory forces are generating industry specific criteria. This, coupled with the need for fast turnaround and economical sterilization methods, is defining sterilization technologies for specific market applications. The germicidal effects of plasma have been known for a long time. It is only recently, however, that we have begun to apply this technology to industry.
PVA TePla America offers a sterilization solution for in-house manufacturing, targeting temperature sensitive products such as fine sutures, membranes and electronics and also implantable medical devices in orthopaedics and cardiac rhythm systems. Our Steriplas series uses gas plasma technology to both sterilize and remove surface bio-burdens. This series, offering up to 1000 liters capacity, is also TUV certified for H2O2 / plasma sterilization in Tyvek bags.
