Four of Multisorb Technologies" packaging products now comply with the American Society for Testing of Materials (ASTM) standards with regard to performance testing of shipping containers and systems.
The Buffalo, New York-based company says its StabilOx and SorbiCap canisters, as well as its MiniPax and StripPax packets, are the first active packaging technologies to comply with the standards.
Compliance with the standards assures pharmaceutical manufacturers that sorbent technology incorporated into product design and packaging will remain in good condition throughout the distribution cycle, the company says. The technology protects from moisture-mediated degradation and oxidation, safeguarding product integrity.
Testing was conducted in accordance with ASTM 4169-08 and ASTM 999-08 standards, which provide a uniform basis for evaluating the ability of packaging to withstand the rigours of distribution.
"Multisorb is committed to providing the highest quality products to pharmaceutical manufacturers," says James Renda, executive vice president and chief operating officer of Multisorb Technologies. "We have proactively designed our products to meet the ASTM test criteria to assure our customers that the active packaging components used to protect their products meet these high standards."
