Sterilisation with steam

Steam sterilisation is still a popular choice for the medical device industry because it is very effective and relatively cheap and quick. To maintain sterility, the devices require packaging that acts as a sterile barrier after the sterilisation process. This means that the cycle has to be suitable, not only for the devices, but also for the associated packaging. Cycle development starts in the design phase with the choice of the materials of construction and packaging.
