Sterilin Limited Announces New Ward/Shelf Packs of Best Selling 30ml
Universal Containers
(Caerphilly, UK, 26 September, 2008) – Sterilin Limited, the
established leader in single use laboratory plastics for life science
applications, announces the availability of handy ward/shelf packs of its best
selling 30ml universal containers, usually supplied in packs of 400. The new
packs of 50 (printed labelled product and those that contain boric acid) will
contain an inner bag label with product code, lot number and expiry date, aiding
product traceability. The newly formed Sterilin Limited manufactures a wide
range of single-use products for the pharmaceutical, clinical and healthcare,
medical device and industrial packaging industries.
Sterilin’s market leading 30ml universal containers are CE marked in accordance
with the European Directive 98/79/EC and have a leak tight cap which ensures
excellent sample containment. In many applications, especially in the healthcare
sector, Sterilin’s containers are used to contain both valuable and hazardous
samples. As these samples are often subjected to the rigours of hospital air
transport systems, it is important that the products do not leak. For the
benefit and safety of patients and clinicians, the containers are leak tested in
accordance with EN14254 Annexe D.
Manufactured at Sterilin’s facility in the UK, these free standing 30ml
containers are aseptically manufactured under cleanroom conditions to exclude
microbiological contamination. All materials are non-cytotoxic, manufactured
from virgin polystyrene and are available empty or pre-filled with boric acid
for preservation of urine samples.
Sterilin manufactures all of its key product ranges at its ISO 9001:2000
accredited plant in South Wales, UK, where a commitment to product development
and investment in injection moulding technology, clean room and microbiological
research facilities ensures that every item is made to the highest possible
quality. In addition, Sterilin also has a number of dedicated OEM partners
worldwide, manufacturing bespoke products for customers and is always looking
for new collaborative ventures.
Formerly part of Barloworld Scientific, Sterilin Limited comprises of four
established product brands: Sterilin® single use plastics; Iwaki® tissue culture
products; Sterilin Silicone Devices (formerly Esco® Silicone Rubber); Sterilin
Packaging Products (formerly Azlon® Packaging).
