Irradiation (Gamma, E-beam, and X-ray) is one of the most reliable and widely used terminal sterilisation methods in the medical device industry. Governed internationally by ISO 11137, it delivers rapid terminal sterilisation with high penetration, no toxic residues, and no need for quarantine periods post-exposure. However, irradiation is not universally suitable for every material. Choosing radiation depends heavily on polymer radiation stability, physical state, and chemic

When it comes to bringing a sterile medical device to market, choosing the right sterilization modality is one of the most critical decisions a manufacturer can make. While Ethylene Oxide (EO) and steam autoclaves are industry staples, radiation sterilization offers unparalleled efficiency, speed, and continuous processing for a vast array of single-use devices. But "radiation" isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. Depending on your material compatibility, packaging density, an
