The recommended sterilization cycles are as follows: Pre-vacuum steam at 132oC for 4 minutes; Drying time of 20 minutes Pre-vacuum steam at 135oC for 3 minutes; Drying time of 16 minutes The Steriking Packaging for medical devices consists of a paper backing (Bleached wood pulp, grammage 100 g/m2) with transparent plastic film laminate front (2 sheets of laminated plastic with a total grammage of 55 g/m2, 1 sheet of oriented polyester 12 microns thick, 1 sheet of coextruded polypropylene 40 microns thick. The plastic laminate is triple heat sealed to the backing paper. The open end of the pouch is to be selfsealed once a device is inserted. Self-sealable pouches are featured with adhesive strip allowing tight, impermeable closing of a pack. The closing flap is pre-folded to facilitate the closure. When closing the self-seal pouch the paper flap shall be folded along the pre-folded line. Flap should be pressed firmly against the laminate from the center working outwards to ensure a good, even seal. Steriking Packaging for Medical Devices maintains the sterility of the enclosed devices for up to 12 months post Steam sterilization and before sterilization has a maximum shelflife of 5 years from the date of manufacture.
