Bioster has developed and uses a new and ecological technology to destroy the ethylene oxide residual coming from the atoclaves and extract residuals from medical devices, to allow the release of the products sterilized following the International Standard limits about ethylene oxide residuals, with no environmental impact for pollution and with a real time monitoring of all the values connected to the sterilization. BIOSTER sterilization and degassing systems allow to reduce the time necessary to release the sterile products ready to be sold and used.

Each sterilization process is studied, certified and personalized according to the needs of the different customer and product. From time, Bioster is sensitive and puts a particular care to the environmental respect and to the safety of the workers through a continuous monitoring of the treatment residuals.

Afterwards it is possible to proceed with the treatment phase inside the separate sterilization area; the planned products, according to a studied production plan, are moved with electric means. The treatment area is equipped with sterilization autoclaves, degassing tunnels, and the subsidiary equipments.

At the end of each Sterilization treatment the boxes are labelled, to assure complete traceability for the sterilized products, and moved inside the degassing tunnels.

In each sterilization facility Bioster installed and qualified modern degassing systems, particular rooms with controlled temperature and under vacuum, enabling to act the degassing phase of the products reducing the release time.

Each of BIOSTER sterilization centre organizes, on a daily base, the transport of samples for analysis to BIOSTER laboratories in the different locations, with the result of decreasing time needed to have complete results of analysis and costs of the customers about samples management.
