Industry: Pharmaceuticals

Press Release Summary: Closures and stoppers for pharmaceutical and
biopharmaceutical processing containers assure aseptic fluid transfer. Their
ingredients meet USP Class VI and FDA standards, and they work equally well with
vessels of stainless steel, glass, and plastic.

Press Release Body: AdvantaPure now provides closures and stoppers for containers
used in pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical processing. Manufactured from
platinum-cured silicone, the closures are biologically safe and ideal for
pharmaceutical, biotech, biomedical, and laboratory environments. They assure
aseptic fluid transfer, sealing, filling, and sampling.

AdvantaPure closures are produced from pure platinum-cured silicone that is free of
animal-derived ingredients and meets USP Class VI and FDA standards. The closures
are designed for carboys, flexible container systems, solution and media bottles,
and other vessels that utilize the closures such as True Union and GL45 styles. They
work equally well with stainless steel, glass, and plastic and are available solid,
with multiple ports, and with silicone tubing inserts. AdvantaPure closures allow
easy reconfiguration of existing transfer and sealing systems.

Closures and stoppers from AdvantaPure are injection-molded in a clean room
environment. The finished products provide a smooth finish with gap-free surfaces
for a true seal, the reduction of cross contamination, and a secured environment to
minimize product loss. AdvantaPure closures resist temperatures from -100°F
(-73.3°C) to 400°F (204.4°C), as well as cracking, particle migration, and attack
from a variety of chemicals. They are sterilizable by autoclave or gamma radiation.
