Course Overview

 

Packaging plays a critical role in ensuring the sterility, integrity, and safety of medical devices throughout their lifecycle. ISO 11607-1 and ISO 11607-2 set the international standard for packaging system design, material selection, process validation, and ongoing control for terminally sterilised medical devices.

 

This concise and practical training course provides an in-depth overview of the requirements, expectations, and best practices for complying with ISO 11607. Participants will learn how to select suitable packaging materials, design compliant systems, validate sealing and assembly processes, and maintain packaging integrity through distribution and shelf life. Real-world examples will be used to demonstrate compliance with regulatory and audit requirements under MDR and FDA frameworks.
