Sterilisation Indicator Labels
Gamma Radiation and ETO

Gamma radiation is a common method used to sterilise medical devices and pharmaceutical products. Gamma radiation sterilisation indicator labels are placed on the packaging of items to be sterilised. These labels contain indicators that change colour or undergo some visible change when exposed to a specific dose of gamma radiation. The change in the indicator signals that the item has been subjected to an appropriate level of radiation for sterilisation. This helps healthcare professionals and manufacturers ensure that the sterilisation process has been effective.

Ethylene oxide (ETO) sterilisation is another method used to sterilise medical devices and equipment that are sensitive to heat and moisture. ETO sterilisation label chemical indicator labels are similar to gamma radiation indicator labels but are specifically designed for ETO sterilisation. These labels contain chemical indicators that change colour or undergo a visible change when exposed to ethylene oxide gas during the sterilisation process. The change in the indicator indicates that the item has been properly sterilised using ETO. Both types of indicator labels play a crucial role in quality control and assurance in the sterilisation process, helping to ensure that medical devices and pharmaceutical products are safe for use.
Whether you require Sterilisation Indicators to be built into you labels or as separate labels, we have a solution for you.
