  • Rounded upper rims for stability and gasket protection.
  • Silicone gaskets for easy replacement.
  • Anti-crushing devices to prevent damage from stacking.
  • Riveted components for secure sealing.
  • Aseptic opening and stable stacking systems.
  • Disposable seals for tamper evidence.
  • Ergonomic handles for safe transport.
  • Traceability through aluminum plates and paper labels with chemical indicators.
  • Design facilitating easy cleaning.
Standards and Compliance
CBM complies with European regulations and standards, including:
  • European Regulation (UE) 2017/745 and Directives 2007/47/CE and 93/42/CE for medical devices.
  • EN ISO 9001 and EN ISO 13485 for quality management systems.
  • EN ISO 17665-1 for sterilization processes.
  • EN ISO 11607-1 and EN ISO 11607-2 for packaging requirements.
  • EN 868-8 and EN ISO 11140-1 for sterilization containers and chemical indicators.
  • EN 285 for steam sterilizers.
Materials
CBM uses reliable materials that meet current regulatory requirements for container production, including a Magnesium-Aluminium alloy and AISI304 stainless steel. Aluminum containers undergo anodizing processes to enhance surface properties and resistance to corrosive agents.
Specifications
CBM manufactures containers using reliable materials that meet current standards. The containers are made from a Magnesium-Aluminium alloy and AISI304 stainless steel. The aluminium containers undergo anodizing processes, either soft or hard, to enhance surface properties and resistance to corrosive agents. Stainless steel containers are naturally resistant to corrosion and do not require additional surface treatments.
Procedures
The anodizing process provides a protective surface coating on aluminium, making it resistant to water steam and allowing for color differentiation of container lids. Hard anodizing improves mechanical surface properties, giving a brownish color to the containers.
Norms and Recommendations
Stainless steel containers, made from AISI304, offer superior mechanical properties compared to aluminium, allowing for thinner walls without compromising strength. The weight difference between filled aluminium and steel containers is minimal, and both materials provide similar heat transmission resistance.
Sterile Barrier Systems
CBM offers a range of sterile barrier systems, including containers with replaceable and permanent filters, protected filters, and valve systems. The Permaside Filters system features a permanent microbial barrier positioned vertically, reducing dust and condensation accumulation and ensuring sterility during transport and storage.
Key Features of Permaside Filters
The system requires minimal maintenance, with PTFE filters certified for over 2000 cycles and a shelf life of 5 years. Containers are equipped with unique serial numbers for traceability. The vertical filter position prevents steam penetration issues and enhances steam saturation quality. The design allows for a higher load volume compared to standard containers.
Technical Features
The vertical filter position avoids steam penetration problems from incorrect stacking. The reduced inlet surface improves steam saturation quality. The permanent cartridge size is optimized according to container height, ensuring uniform steam penetration and facilitating sterilization.
Overview of the Filtering System
The CBM patent for the lateral filtering system enhances the steam penetration and air filtration capabilities of rigid containers used for steam sterilization. This system is efficient and cost-effective for sterilization centers.
Key Innovations
  • Vertical Filter Position: Prevents steam penetration issues due to faulty stacking and maintains a consistent distance from the steam inlet to the load center.
  • Filter Dimensions: Optimized according to container height, reducing consumable management costs.
  • Protection from Contaminants: Dust, dirt, and condensed water do not accumulate on the filters, ensuring sterility during transport and storage.
Container Specifications
Containers are available in various materials such as stainless steel and aluminum with hard or soft anodizing. They come in different sizes and configurations, including options for non-removable lids and oversized handles.
Protected Valve Containers
This mechanical filtering system requires no maintenance and operates through a series of valve positions during and after sterilization to ensure sterility.
Mini Containers
Designed for small-scale operations, these containers are robust and flexible, conforming to European standards. They are ideal for organizing small surgical sets and reducing disposable material usage.
Available Options
  • Non-removable hinged lids.
  • Oversized handles with ergonomic coverings.
