Plastic packaging

Plastic packaging

The plastic used for medical goods must be sterile and non-reactive to humans. Many medical devices must be disposed of after use, and most are incinerated to ensure no bacteria survive. The majority of plastic packaging is recyclable, but some can be unrecyclable because they have been exposed to blood or bacteria. These factors play a vital role in packaging medical goods. However, there are some exceptions to this rule.

Fragility assessment can help determine which materials to use for fragile medical goods. This method requires a dynamics-test laboratory. The results will include tests for shock and vibration. These tests are conducted in compliance with American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) Standard D3580. The results of these tests are often described as a transmissibility plot. This graph shows the natural or resonant frequency of various materials and their amplification at resonance. This information is essential for the development of the packaging for medical goods.

Manufacturers can incorporate the latest technology into their packaging for temperature-sensitive medical goods. They can design custom-made packages that meet the unique needs of the products. Sustainable medical-device packaging can be a good option, if the materials are eco-friendly. It can be made with recycled material or comply with the RoHS and WEEE regulations. In addition, it is possible to design a packaging solution that is compliant with these environmental guidelines.

The current global economy has a profound effect on the medical device market, especially in Asia and the Middle East. Countries like India and China are undergoing rapid growth and are dependent on each other for economic development. As a result, political turmoil, conflict, and war can affect the global market. Keeping a global perspective is crucial for the success of the medical device industry. It is therefore important for companies to ensure that their packaging meets the strict requirements of the ISO 10993 certification.

The biocompatibility of a material is critical for medical devices. The FDA and the World Health Organization (WHO) define biocompatibility in terms of biocompatible materials. While the U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention is the standard for medical-grade polymers, it is often subjective and based on the manufacturer's standards. It is crucial to know what these standards are before purchasing a medical-grade product.

The use of plastics for medical packaging has expanded to include a range of medical equipment. In addition to primary container packaging, plastics are also used for sterile packaging. These materials must be evaluated for resin density, converted yield, and cost of finished packaging. The main purpose of these materials is to protect the medical apparatus from contaminants. It is important to consider the pros and cons of these plastics when choosing a material for your products.
