Waiblingen, Germany: – Advanced aseptic liquid filling and bottling specialist Rommelag Engineering has congratulated fellow Rommelag Group member Rommelag FLEX on gaining ISO certification for its innovative flexible, single-use containment solutions as well as for their continuous liners and cleanroom manufactured bags.

The DIN ISO 15378 certification is a major milestone for Rommelag’s FLEX department in confirming that its ingenious Flecotec single use aseptic packaging and containment systems and Flecofilm pharmaceutical packaging materials meet the legal requirements for primary packaging materials for pharmaceutical and medical products.

ISO 9001 quality

The certification also confirms the Rommelag products and processes meet the quality standards of ISO 9001 as well as the principles of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) as required by regulators for the pharmaceutical and medical device industry worldwide.

This will help Rommelag FLEX provide its clients with enhanced efficiencies in production processes, helping them avoid safety hazards for operating personnel and minimize risks of product contamination, all supporting enhanced product efficacy and shelf life.

Flecotec: single-use packaging & containment systems

Rommelag FLEX developed the Flecotec system, including FlecoZip interfaces, as a highly flexible and adaptable containment concept that can be ideally adapted to existing processes, requires no new certification, and reduces subsequent cleaning work to a minimum.

The system of adaptable transparent enclosure bags and covers overcomes the manufacturing challenges of pharmaceuticals involved in handling toxic or highly sensitive solids that can pose a direct threat to people’s safety and where cross-contamination has to be avoided at all times.

Flecofilm pharmaceutical packaging

The certification also applies to Rommelag FLEX Flecofilm that has been specially developed for pharmaceutical, fine chemicals, food, and cosmetics packaging applications.  The highly transparent Flecofilm DL (DoubleLayer) offers electrostatic discharge capabilities, is heat sealable and being made from pharmaceutical-grade polyethylene in accordance with European Pharmacopoeia, chapters 3.1.3 and 3.1.5, also meeting USP <88> standards for in vivo non-reactivity and USP <661> for physicochemical properties.
