BioClosure® Container Closure Systems

High Purity Container Closures

Manufactured from AdvantaSil® USP Class VI, platinum-cured silicone elastomer or from AdvantaFlex® biopharmaceutical grade TPE, AdvantaPure's BioClosure Systems offer the utmost in purity. They're biologically safe and work with vessels of glass, metal or plastic. Stoppers, caps, inserts for True Unions and GL45's, and other styles, with or without tubing, are available. Full BPOG standardized extractables test protocol has been performed by a fully-accredited, third-party test lab.

BioClosure systems are not intended for implantation or continuous steam applications.
