What is an eBeam?
An eBeam (or E-Beam) is short for Electron Beam which is an irradiation process that uses high energy electrons for sterilisation, contamination control and material modification, such as polymer strengthening.
eBeam sterilisation is a safe, effective, and efficient processing technology used to sterilise a wide variety of medical devices and pharmaceuticals. eBeam is the most cost-effective sterilisation method for low to medium density products. For extremely dense materials, we suggest alternative methods.
How does eBeam Sterilisation Work?
The eBeam is able to penetrate low-to-medium dense products, including medical devices and pharmaceuticals which are already packaged within their outer boxes.
The eBeam then deactivates microorganisms by causing microbial death either as a direct effect of destroying a vital molecule or as an indirect effect of a chemical reaction. The hyper-advanced technology controls the precise use of the electrons during the sterilisation process.
Why use eBeam instead of ETO (also known as EO, Ethylene Oxide Gas)?
-
Quick & Clean
eBeam is a quick turnaround solution with simple, clean on/off technology.
There is no carcinogenic gas needed and no residuals left on the product following sterilisation, meaning the product can be immediately released for distribution safely.
-
No Minimum (or Maximum) Contract
From a single box to multiple truckloads, we can handle any size of shipment without the need for expensive packaging.
Why use eBeam instead of Gamma?
-
Quick & Clean
eBeam is a quick turnaround solution with simple, clean on/off technology.
There are no radioactive sources needed, meaning the product can be immediately released for distribution safely, without concern for security, transport or disposal.
-
Longevity of Supply
Unlike Cobalt 60 (gamma photons), the supply of electrons will never be in danger of running out.
-
Wider Suitability
Due to the eBeam having a faster dose rate than gamma, there is a reduced exposure to the dose and therefore a reduced risk of product damage.
This means that the eBeam can even be used on sensitive products like pharmaceuticals, tissues and food.
