Technical brochure: Radiation sterilization

Radiation sterilization is a process in which ionizing radiation, such as gamma rays or E-Beam, is used to destroy the DNA of microorganisms quickly, safely and in an environmentally friendly manner. It is used for products in the medical technology and biotechnology, pharmaceutical and packaging industries, among others. Our technical brochure explains how radiation sterilization works and the advantages it offers for your products.

Product safety as a final step in production

Radiation sterilization with gamma and E-Beam is considered a particularly gentle and highly efficient process for converting products to a sterile state in the final manufacturing step. Our brochure highlights the various possible applications – from medical products and pharmaceutical items to packaging materials. You will learn how the technology is used for sterilization and bioburden reduction and what the individual steps of validation look like in order to reliably meet regulatory requirements. It also explains how irradiation can be seamlessly integrated into your logistics chain in order to sustainably optimize the entire production process. Download now free of charge at:
