Provital advances healthcare masterbatches

There have been some major advances in the manufacture of medical masterbatches at Ampacet as it introduces its new ProVital and ProVital+ masterbatches for medical and pharmaceutical applications.

Ampacet’s ProVital+ is specifically formulated with specially selected raw materials that have been pre-tested to European Pharmacopeia section 3.1 and biocompatibility according to ISO 10993 standards.

The company told SPN, “Our unique set of knowledge in the use of materials, gathered from multiple industries associated with the expertise of our regulatory experts, led to development of a portfolio of masterbatch solutions specifically designed for pharmaceutical and medical markets,” said Philippe Hugelé, Ampacet Strategic Business Manager Medical and Rigid Packaging.

Hugelé added, “Engineered with premium quality raw materials and produced under strict manufacturing conditions, Ampacet ProVital masterbatches help manufacturers of medical equipment and pharmaceutical primary packaging to meet the highest industry requirements and stringent medical regulations.”.

Plastics, essential in the medical market, are replacing conventional materials such as metal, ceramic and glass for their mechanical properties, processing ease, quality, cost-effectiveness, ease of sterilisation and the ability to mould complex shapes. Consistency of performance, traceability and control of raw materials are crucial for manufacturers of medical devices, primary packaging or in vitro diagnostics equipment. For decades, Ampacet has been a reliable partner, adhering to stringent quality and performance criteria. By building strong long-lasting relationships, Ampacet helps create a robust and transparent supply chain. In keeping with the complex regulatory environment, Ampacet supports its customers with the full regulatory data package required for product design.
