Helapet has upgraded its facility by investing in a bespoke vacuum packing machine to meet the increased demand for sterile packaging within controlled environments.
The machine is programmed per product to gain maximum efficiency and security to produce quality packaged disposables suitable for use in aseptic areas and isolator cabinets.
The machines remove the air from each pack during the packaging process ensuring that microbial particulates are extracted before sealing securely with a validated heat seal.
Sterile products are then sterilised by either gamma irradiation or ETO gassing processes.
Products that now benefit from the cleaner and more secure packaging process are: the Pharmapack range of bulk-packed syringes; individually sterile wrapped sharps bins; and pharmacy prep trays.
