Icon’s partner in Sterilization
Icon Equipment partners with Claranor to provide cutting-edge pulsed light sterilisation technology for Australian pharmaceutical, beverage, and food packaging lines. Claranor’s innovative UV and pulsed light decontamination systems instantly destroy surface microorganisms using intense light flashes, eliminating the need for chemical sterilants, gamma irradiation, or heat treatment. This clean technology is particularly vital for sensitive products, achieving log 5 reduction in microbial contamination whilst maintaining product integrity and extending shelf life without additives or preservatives.
The partnership delivers pharmaceutical-grade sterilisation capabilities that integrate seamlessly into Icon’s complete packaging lines, supporting speeds up to 100,000 bottles per hour. Claranor’s compact sterilisation units retrofit easily into existing production lines, providing an economical upgrade path for manufacturers requiring aseptic packaging capabilities.
