Frequently Asked Questions
Are these HDPE Medipac pots suitable for direct contact with medicines?
The pots are made from HDPE commonly used for pharmaceutical and medical packaging. However, it is the responsibility of the user to confirm suitability and compliance with relevant regulations and pharmacopoeial requirements for their specific product and process.
What is the difference between the lined screw cap and the child resistant cap?
The 38mm white lined screw cap provides a secure, reliable seal with a lining that helps protect the contents from moisture and contamination. The 38mm white child resistant cap incorporates a safety mechanism that requires a combined push-and-turn or similar action to open, helping to reduce the risk of children gaining access to the contents.
Can these pots be sterilised before use?
The pots are intended for use under normal ambient conditions and are not designed for high-temperature sterilisation methods such as autoclaving. If sterilisation is required, users should assess appropriate validated methods (for example, chemical or gamma treatment) and confirm compatibility with both the container and their product.
