Porex Presents P3 Technology for Medical Device Packaging
USA-based Porex Corporation (Porex), which describes itself as a proven market leader in porous media solutions for the healthcare markets, has introduced P3 Technology to enhance the protection of medical device and pharmaceutical packaging. Porex is presenting the technology on November 21, 2013, at 1:35 pm at the Compamed trade show as part of the a supplier forum being held in hall 8b.
Porex P3 Technology is said to have a unique combination of excellent microbial-barrier performance for superior packaging integrity and high permeability for shorter ethylene oxide sterilisation cycles. The P3 porous structure is an intricate network of open-celled omnidirectional pores, which creates a more tortuous path to prevent the penetration of microbes. Porex P3 Technology can help improve the sterile integrity of medical packaging and enhance patient safety. With P3, Porex says it is setting new standards in medical device and pharmaceutical packaging.
“Porex strives to create innovative solutions that solve the specific challenges of our healthcare customers,” said William Midgette, president and CEO of Porex. “Our research scientists and engineers are dedicated to delivering breakthrough innovations, such as P3 Technology, that provide next generation performance for our customers' products.”
