As the Sterilization Packaging Manufacturers Council (SPMC) celebrates its thirtieth anniversary, its Technical Committee has quietly been building a powerful online library of Frequently Asked Questions. The FAQs, which now total one hundred, are a testament to the council’s mission and a valued industry resource accessed thousands of times annually.

Since its founding, the SPMC has focused on the development of test methods and guidance documents for the sterilizable flexible packaging of medical devices and pharmaceuticals.

This information formed the foundation for the FAQs, which were launched online in 2003. READ THE FULL ARTICLE IN FLEXPACK VOICE MAGAZINE.
