EO is a well-established low-temperature sterilization process widely used across the medical device and pharmaceutical industries. While EO Sterilization and EO Treatment are sometimes used interchangeably, they represent two fundamentally different approaches with important quality, validation, and regulatory implications.

Selecting the appropriate sterilization approach begins with understanding how different products behave under exposure. A single load cycle is designed to sterilize products that share comparable material properties, packaging configurations, geometry, and sterilization requirements.

At Medistri, sustainability is managed through measurable data and verified processes. Across our sterilization, laboratory, and logistics operations, environmental performance is continuously monitored to identify opportunities for greater efficiency and emission reduction.

A pharmaceutical vial is a small container, typically made of glass or plastic, used to store and protect liquid, powder, or lyophilized (freeze-dried) pharmaceutical substances. These vials must be sterilized and sealed with a rubber stopper or a screw-on cap, often secured by a metal crimp or seal.

Steam sterilization is one of the most widely used and dependable methods for achieving sterility in healthcare. It works by using saturated steam under pressure at high temperatures to inactivate microorganisms, ensuring medical devices are safe for later use.

For small Medical Device manufacturers, mixed Load Cycles is one of these approaches, allowing different types of instruments and materials to be sterilized together within a single cycle.

Since the 1960s, Ethylene Oxide (EO) has been a globally recognized method to sterilize medical devices and pharmaceutical products. Its effectiveness lies in its ability to penetrate breathable packaging and reach all product surfaces, ensuring the necessary Sterility Assurance Level (SAL).

Sterilization refers to the process of removing, killing, or deactivating all forms of life (microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria, spores, and unicellular eukaryotic organisms) and other biological agents. Steam sterilization is a widely used method for items that can withstand moisture, high temperature, and pressure. Its primary purpose is to inactivate microorganisms, ensuring a sterile product for safe use.

In Sterilisation, the configuration of the load plays a decisive role in ensuring the effectiveness, safety, and consistency of the process. At Medistri, we support our customers by delivering sterilisation solutions that offer controlled flexibility - always in full compliance with industry and international standards. Managing load variables effectively means not only meeting regulatory requirements but also gaining operational efficiency and efficacy throughout the supply chain.

As the medical industry advances, devices are becoming more compact & connected. Many of today’s innovations include integrated electronics - microchips, sensors, batteries, or embedded software, that allow for monitoring, adjustment, or data transmission. These features improve patient outcomes, but they also create new challenges when it comes to sterilisation.
