Exolon Group
From 11 to 14 November 2024, the Exolon Group will present its products and solutions for medical plastic packaging and aids at COMPAMED in Düsseldorf. At stand R27 in hall 8a, visitors can learn more about the Exolon Group’s Med product family: Inspria Med, Vivak Med and Exolon Med.
Inspria Med sheets, made from Eastman Tritan MP 100 copolyester, are suitable for a wide range of medical applications according to the company. These include packaging and dental aligners. Exolon says this material is suitable for various methods of sterilisation, including gamma radiation and ethylene oxide.
Vivak Med, made from Eastman Eastar 6763 Copolyester, is easy to process and is suitable for thermoformed containers and trays for medical devices and skin contact applications such as prostheses says Exolon. The material can be rapidly thermoformed without pre-drying, with low energy consumption, short production cycles, extreme stretching and accurate mould surface reproduction.
Exolon Med are transparent polycarbonate sheets. They are used for rigid medical packaging, transparent protective devices, containers and trays for medical devices and skin contact applications such as prostheses. They can withstand temperatures up to 120 °C. This means that sterilisation can also take place with water vapour.
Exolon says that all Med-Range products consist of 100 percent virgin material that meets ISO 10993/USP Class VI biocompatibility requirements for the biological evaluation of medical devices. The sheets are produced in accordance with good manufacturing practices (GMP).
The manufacturing process is subject to constant control by a quality management system that meets the ISO 9001:2015 standard. Processors can thus trace the sheet material down to the raw material, an important basis for the further documentation of future end products according to Exolon.
