LyoTec® Stoppers

The unique LyoTec single-vent igloo stopper design is effective in eliminating mechanical twinning, the interlocking of double-vented stoppers during processing.

LyoTec stoppers bring an added measure of safety to any lyophilization process:

• For cytotoxic drug products, a lyophilization chamber incident can trigger an even more expensive and dangerous environmental cleanup.
• For processing inside a barrier isolator, using LyoTec stoppers can help prevent a costly cleanup that breaches the sterile environment.

Because the LyoTec stopper only has film applied to the top, non-drug contact surface, integrating LyoTec stoppers into production lines may require minimal regulatory review, especially for manufacturers who use an approved West configuration and formulation.
