Embodiment Construction

[0031] Figure 1-3 are schematic and it is understood that neither the shape of the components nor the shapes of the various bags represent true shapes or dimensions. In particular, the parts may be of any number and shape, and the bag may be of any shape and size.

[0032] Traditionally, an elastomeric component 1 such as a stopper for a pharmaceutical container is packaged in a packaging device comprising a first bag 10 directly containing said component.

[0033] Advantageously, the packaging device also comprises a second bag 20 accommodating said first bag 10, as shown in the attached figure 1 and 2 shown in the . Optionally, as attached image 3 As shown, a third bag 30 containing said second bag 20 may be provided.

[0034] The air evacuation can take place between the first bag 10 and the second bag 20 in the case of a two-bag configuration, or optionally between the second bag 20 and the third bag 30 in the case of a three-bag configuration. This air evacuation ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method of packaging elastomer parts (1), such as pharmaceutical container stoppers, the method involving the following steps: - packaging the parts (1) in a first bag (10) made of a material which is substantially impervious to gases; and applying to the first bag (10) a nitrogen-based atmosphere, with at least 80% nitrogen, the first bag (10) being packaged in a second bag (20), with a vacuum being applied between the first bag (10) and the second bag (20).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and devices for the packaging of elastomeric components, such as bouchons for pharmaceutical containers. Background technique [0002] Pharmaceutical containers intended to contain pharmaceuticals are usually closed in a hermetic and sterile manner after filling by a suitable stopper, typically made of an elastomeric material such as rubber. These stoppers are usually delivered separately from the containers to the user responsible for filling, said stoppers being packed in suitable packaging devices. These ready-to-use stoppers are usually packaged under ambient atmosphere in a sac primaire, typically a polyethylene (PE) or aluminum bag, which is well impermeable to air. The heat sealing of the first pouch is not performed under vacuum. This first bag can itself be inserted into a second bag (sacsecondaire), usually of the polyethylene (PE) type, or in particular polyethylene / polyamide / polyethylene (PE / PA / P...
