Plastics, due to their durability and versatility, are a material of choice for various healthcare products, such as pharmaceutical bottles and vials, drug delivery devices, monitoring devices, surgical instruments, or labware.
For these reasons, medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging products are typically made with standard polymers (e.g., polyolefins, polyesters) and engineering plastics (e.g., polycarbonate, ABS, POM, PBT).
Documented change control beyond CAS number and Registered Drug Master File (DMF)/Device Master File (MAF) documentation are common practices for the Mevopur portfolio.
