Manual Filling

Bio-Steril has developed a manual syringe filling and capping system that allows very small quantities of product to be handled. Performed in ISO 7 cleanrooms under ISO 5 flow, this capability allows our customers to control the quantities of product used in their product development. This is also important at key stages of preclinical and clinical trials.

Our capabilities can be applied to a wide range of products, from liquids to highly engineered gels.
Our teams are trained to adapt to different product viscosities as well as any specific customer requirements.

Automatic filling

Bio-Steril offers automatic or semi-automatic filling and capping solutions for syringes and vials. Our equipment, which is more suitable for medium and large scale production, can handle product volumes from 1L to 60L.

Larger volumes can be considered depending on the project, please contact us if required. Bio-Steril is equipped with semi-automatic vial filling machines (6R, 10R, etc.) which allow us to handle medium sized batches while ensuring the highest quality and safety standards.

This process is performed in ISO 7 cleanrooms under ISO 5 flow. and is particularly suitable for batches of 1000 to 7000 units. This filling solution offered by Bio-Steril maintains a good balance between productivity, quality and process safety, ensuring consistent quality of packaged products. This production step is validated according to the customer's regulatory and technical requirements and the applicable standards in their reference.

STEAM STERILISATION
According to ISO 17665-1

Our site is equipped with two 600L air/steam autoclaves, allowing us to perform standard cycles (e.g. 121°C for 15 minutes) as well as high tech cycles with rapid heating and cooling (e.g. 131°C for 1 minute).

These capabilities are applicable to technical loads of contained products (vials, syringes, etc.) and equipment. For each project, Bio-Steril will assist you in developing the most appropriate cycle for your needs, both technically and from a regulatory perspective.

We support you in the validation process to claim the sterile status of your products and equipment. We are fully aware of the importance of sterilisation in the medical device manufacturing process and are fully committed to providing our customers with the best services and solutions while complying with the standards associated with this activity.

This is why Bio-Steril is ISO 13485:2016 certified by LNE/GMED and works in accordance with ISO 17665-1 for steam sterilisation.

VISUAL INSPECTION

Bio-Steril offers its customers extensive experience in this activity. We can help you develop specific defect libraries for each of your projects. The visual inspection step involves verifying, in a controlled environment, the conformity of the physical integrity and cleanliness of the products. Visual inspection is a very important and essential step for implantable medical devices or those used in patient contact applications.

These inspections may include, but are not limited to

This step ensures the safety of device use and the quality of care ultimately provided to patients. Our visual inspection team is trained to identify all types of defects according to customer specifications, taking into account the criticality of each project. Our expertise allows us to manage defects based on the different types of products inspected. We maintain rigorous tracking of each batch produced and can provide statistical tracking of rejects. This approach allows our customers to monitor trends and anticipate process deviations through analysis.
In summary, at Bio-Steril we implement visual inspection processes tailored to the specifications and criticality of each project. Our know-how and expertise in this field guarantees quality for our customers.

NON-STERILE PACKAGING

UDI labelling, kit assembly, preformed blister packaging... From automated competence to manual expertise.

BIO-STERIL can handle both large and small series. BIO-STERIL is an expert in the production of medical devices and offers a comprehensive service from primary packaging (before sterilisation) to final packaging of medical devices. This can include activities such as UDI labelling, kit assembly, blister packaging and final boxing. We have extensive automated capabilities to handle large volumes, as well as manual expertise to handle small batches.

Manual packaging

Manual packaging of medical devices has several advantages:

1. Flexibility: Manual packaging allows us to adapt to the specific needs of each product, taking into account the characteristics of each medical device.
2. Improved quality control: Manual packaging allows better quality control, as it is easier to detect any defects or errors when packaging is done by hand.
3. Production in small batches: Manual packaging is more suitable for the production of small batches of medical devices, which is often the case for innovative or low-volume products.
4. Customised production: Manual packaging allows the production of customised medical devices based on the specific needs of the customer.
5. Customisation: Manual packaging allows medical devices to be customised to meet specific patient needs.

Automatic packaging

Automatic packaging of medical devices has several advantages:

1. Increased productivity: Automatic packaging leads to increased productivity compared to manual packaging due to the speed and efficiency of the machines.
2. Error reduction: Automated packaging reduces the potential for human error as it is less prone to handling or packaging errors.
3. Consistency of quality: Automated packaging ensures better quality consistency as machines are programmed to follow precise and repeatable packaging protocols.
4. High volume production: Automated packaging is more suitable for the production of large volumes of medical devices, which is often the case for common products and high-volume
5. Standards compliance: Automated packaging ensures compliance with medical standards and regulations by maintaining quality and safety standards.

Labelling of
syringes and vials

A critical process, medical device labelling aims to provide clear, accurate and safe information to users. It is regulated by health authorities to ensure the safety of users and patients. Information that must appear on the label of a medical device includes:
Errors or omissions in labelling can put the health and safety of patients at risk. It is therefore vital to ensure that the information on labels is correct. Bio-Steril has the experience, equipment and production processes to guarantee the accuracy of the information at every stage, on 100% of the items produced in its facility, prior to release by its customers.
Note: The presence of UDI (Unique Device Identification) codes, such as 2D matrix or barcode, has been mandatory for medical devices since September 2020.

Blister Packaging

An important step in the production of medical devices in pre-formed blisters, blister sealing protects the products inside from moisture, light and external contamination.

To ensure product quality and safety, Bio-Steril recommends a process to validate the quality of blister sealing. This process is internally controlled.

The sealing parameters (temperature, pressure, time, etc.) are defined to ensure the best sealing for the materials used.

Bio-Steril routinely and systematically checks the sealing parameters to ensure the integrity and safety of the processes defined during validation.

It is important to note that Bio-Steril allows its customers to verify that the sealing parameters meet their requirements and ensure the integrity and safety of their medical devices.

Final packaging

The final production step, final boxing, can be carried out in two ways: Manual or automatic boxing, each with its own advantages.

Manual boxing: Particularly suitable for pre-formed and/or complex kits and for small series, this operation is not suitable for very large series. It is also recommended for kits with multiple components that are difficult to automate.

Automatic boxing: Bio-Steril is equipped with a cartoning machine designed for medium and high volume packaging.

This equipment is suitable for medical devices. It ensures the insertion of regulatory notices, tamper-evident labels and traceability labels, all with excellent packaging quality and productivity, guaranteeing an optimised production time.

Depending on your projects, BIO-STERIL can offer you one of these options to ensure optimal packaging of your medical devices.
