STERIS AST announces sustainable EO sterilization services

December 21, 2017

As part of our commitment to providing innovative and sustainable solutions, STERIS AST is pleased to announce our newest offering, Sustainable EOSM sterilization services.

Our Sustainable EO services provide Customers with strategies to reduce the EO sterilant used in the sterilization process to achieve the prescribed Sterility Assurance Level.  The program includes innovative approaches to EO sterilization, such as cycle design, validation strategy, and process challenge device design, all focused on the reduction of EO residuals on healthcare products.

Optimized sterilant input provides several benefits, including:

  • Lower product residuals to meet current and future patient safety requirements
  • Improved occupational safety
  • Improved supply chain efficiencies due to reduced aeration (off-gassing) of ethylene oxide gas

“The Sustainable EO service supports our commitment to providing a safe and compliant work environment for our People and discovering innovative ways to service our Customers,” comments Dan Carestio, Senior Vice President of STERIS AST. “This unique service is an example of our passion for continuous improvement as part of our global technology-neutral sterilization offering.”
