Our expertise
Winding
Accuracy remains the highest priority when the needle is locked onto the tray and while the thread is wound. Thanks to our cutting-edge technologies and individually coordinated production steps, only perfectly stocked trays continue on to the subsequent blister packaging.
Blistering and packaging
The suture material is packaged into blisters made from shaped aluminum with two chambers, one of which holds the tray. The second is for sterilization: It contains a covering film with a Tyvek window through which the gas can penetrate during sterilization. It is subsequently separated in the sealer/blanker machine.
