Bioprocessing filmsFilms for all your bioproduction needs

Thermo Scientifi c™ BioProcess Containers are built to meet your single-use bioprocessing needs, whether upstream, for cell culture and fermentation, or downstream, for sophisticated applications or simply as holding and transfer systems in your cGMP bioprocessing facilities.

Four fi lms, engineered for the most demanding applicationsOur fi lms are engineered to meet the most demanding requirements of your bioproduction processes.Choose between:

• Thermo Scientifi c™ Aegis™ 5-14 Film—for high-value applications

• Thermo Scientifi c™ CX5-14 Film—one of the most widely used fi lms in the industry, proven over 10 years

• Thermo Scientifi c™ ASI™ 26/77 Film—a two layered fi lm with extremely low extractables, for high-value applications

• Thermo Scientifi c™ ASI™ 28 Film—a robust, four-layer fi lm with excellent oxygen- and moisture-barrier properties

Three fi lm formulations• Thermo Scientifi c Aegis5-14 and CX5-14 fi lms are

5–layer, 14 mil cast fi lm produced in a cGMP facility. The outer layer is a polyester elastomer coextruded with an ethyl vinyl alcohol (EVOH) barrier layer and a low-density polyethylene product contact layer.

• The ASI 26/77 polyethylene (PE) single-use bag systems are produced in a cGMP facility, utilizing two fi lms: a fl uid contact fi lm and a durable, coextruded outer-layer fi lm

• The ASI 28 fi lm is an ethyl vinyl acetate (EVA) coextruded fi lm produced in a cGMP facility. This fi lm provides an excellent, highly durable moisture and oxygen barrier

Thermo Scientific BioProcess Containers

Two sources, for assured supplySince we offer bioprocess containers (BPCs) manufactured from different families of films, we can also provide dual sourcing. Our BPCs are manufactured in three efficient, cGMP-compliant manufacturing sites: two in North America—Logan, UT, and Millersburg, PA—and one in Cramlington, UK.
