Life Science
starlim manufactures components made of silicone for
- medical technology,
- the pharmaceutical industry,
- laboratory diagnostics,
- the baby products industry,
- the food industry,
- the cosmetics sector
- and numerous other industries
In the life science sector, hygiene and cleanliness have top priority. This means that the special properties of silicone are particularly important in this industry. This includes, for example, biocompatibility (according to USP Class VI/ISO 10993 for applications in medicine and the food industry), serializability (with ethylene oxide, steam, gamma rays and e-beam) and the approvals for all bottle nipples and pacifiers in the baby product industry from the Federal Office for Risk Assessment.
State-of-the-art production conditions and clean-room production guarantee the highest processing quality. Clean, hygienic and reliable – all of this is starlim.
Our products for the life science industry include, for example:
- Silicone components for medical devices
- Silicone components for hearing aids
- Dosing valves for food packaging, e.g. Ketchup bottles
- Nipple shields for mothers
- O-rings for dialysis filters
- Seals for infusion systems
- Teats for baby pacifiers
- Tourniquet for drawing blood
- Valves for inhalation devices
Services
Product Development
Product development
At starlim, we have extensive material and process knowledge about the phenomenon of silicone. With reference to your requirements, we start with the product development together.
Tool making
Tool making
In our in-house tool shop, the molds for the injection molding production of the starlim are designed and built. This makes us flexible and independent.
Rapid Tooling
Rapid Tooling
Receiving the first near-series LSR parts from starlim after just 10 days is possible thanks to rapid tooling from sterner. This concept was developed in order to be able to offer customers the first injection molded parts within a short period of time.
Test tool
Test tool
With the help of a test tool, we can manufacture the first LSR injection molded parts for starlim’s customers under series conditions within a very short time.
Micro injection molding
Micro injection molding
At starlim, components are manufactured in large series as standard, which have a weight of at least 10mg. We refer to silicone components under 10mg as micro injection molding.
Clean room
Clean room
In order to have a controlled environment for the production of the purest silicone parts, starlim has its own clean room. This is certified according to the classes ISO 14644-1 class 7 & 8 as well as GMP class C&D.
Production
Production
In the fully automatic injection molding process, one-component and multi-component parts are made from silicone at starlim. Production takes place at the Austrian locations in Marchtrenk, Weißkirchen and Lambach as well as in our Canadian branch in London / Ontario.
