SteriPack Sets Up Shop in the United States

Irish company SteriPack has opened its first U.S. facility in Lakeland, Fla. The new plant is ISO 13485 certified and will manufacture products in an ISO Class 8 clean room duplicating its sister companies in Ireland, Poland and Malaysia to service the North and South American markets.

SteriPack USA will offer clean room manufactured pouches, header bags, SteriBags, die cut lids and rollstock, contract manufacturing and many other innovative packaging products dedicated to the medical industry.

“SteriPack has been exploring several options in the United States for the past three years to find the ideal situation and location,” said Tony Paolino, president of SteriPack USA. “The facility is a ‘first in class’ operation and draws on the nearly 20 years of experience that SteriPack has manufacturing converted products and providing contract manufacturing services in a Class 8 clean room.” 

The new Florida facility will allow SteriPack to provide converted products in Europe, Asia, and the United States, implementing the same standard processes and quality systems in every facility worldwide. The company went forward with plans for the U.S. location following requests from many existing U.S.–based customers that wanted easier access to the same services closer to home.

SteriPack provides cleanroom sterilized packaging solutions for the medical device industry.
