Alternative Sterilization for Healthcare Packaging: Chlorine Dioxide

 Die Sterilisationsbranche für Einweg-Sterilbarrieresysteme in medizinischen Verpackungen wurde lange Zeit von zwei Optionen dominiert: Ethylenoxid und Gammabestrahlung. Doch verschiedene Faktoren wie Vorschriften, Herausforderungen in der Lieferkette und Nachhaltigkeit veranlassen Unternehmen, andere Optionen in Betracht zu ziehen. Alternative chemical gas and radiation technologies that were once considered “niche” are gaining popularity in industry. One modality rising to the surface is Chlorine Dioxide. As industry works to accelerate acceptance and standardization of alternatives, it will be critical for healthcare packaging professionals to understand aspects of Chlorine Dioxide technology, including: chamber and parameter considerations, compatibility of packaging and device materials, depth of penetration, scalability, and more. Watch this webinar replay as Jeremy Elwell (Technical Manager, Oliver Healthcare Packaging), and Emily Lorcheim, PMP (VP of Sterilization Technologies, ClorDiSys Solutions, Inc) shared their knowledge on this topic and provided guidance for healthcare packaging teams to effectively collaborate and partner with sterilization decision-makers in their organization.
