Our Latest Offering – A Made in Canada Isotope Packaging Solution
Stevcon is an established leader in key packaging solution providers to the Canadian medical isotope industry. The company is trusted for providing packaging solutions for medical isotopes used to treat cancer of various kinds such as breast, prostate, kidney, liver, etc. The demand for medical isotopes is likely to increase exponentially over the next few years, and the company aims to close this demand gap. A just-in-time solution is critical to the short shelf life of most isotopes.
A Made in Canada packaging solution for medical isotopes is our breakthrough feature, considering the ongoing modernization in healthcare facilities due to ever-increasing demand. Moreover, emerging markets, increasing demand for oncology treatment, and the improving reimbursement scenario surrounding insurance coverage are expected to present a wide range of opportunities and demand for Canadian isotopes. Therefore, despite the challenges of ensuring that isotope arrives in an uncompromised condition, Stevcon is already prepared with solutions to counter these threats, such as:
- Increase the supplier base for a Made in Canada packaging solution
- Inventory of standard isotope packaging to allow just-in-time shipping, within a single or multi-pack container
Our Isotope Partners
Kinectrics/Framatome(Isogen) and Stevcon have partnered to provide reusable packaging for the Lutetium 177 production at Bruce Power, and the Canadian Isotope Innovations Corp-Saskatoon-Packaging is responsible for Copper 67 for shipments worldwide.
Our type A packaging goes through multiple trials of drop tests, water spray tests, leak tests, and vibration, pressure, and temperature differential tests to be qualified by the Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission. We are in discussions with other companies within the isotope sector to add to our current isotope packaging solutions.
