MULTISORB has been preserving the efficacy of products, continuously advancing their sorbent technology to stabilize
the most advanced drug chemistries. With individual customers in mind, MULTISORB engineers tailored sorbent solutions
based on a specific drug formulation’s unique degradation profile.
MULISORB’s products are extensively used to solve moisture, odor and oxygen related packaging problems to ensure
drugs, medical devices & diagnostic products are safe and effective when they get to people who depend on them.
Explore the details of each below to determine the right solution for your formula and packaging needs.
Ideal for hand packaging operations, MiniPax Sorbent Packets are compact, extremely durable, non-dusting sorbent packets. MiniPax Packets can be produced with a wide choice of sorbents and sorbent blends to meet your specific needs, including blends of odor and moisture adsorbent compounds. Sizes range from 0.25 grams to 28 grams, with larger sizes available for multi-packet production runs.
MiniPax molecular sieve and silica gel packets have high tear strength in all directions and are virtually puncture proof, eliminating the risk of leakage and product contamination.
Market Applications:
• Pharmaceuticals
• In vitro diagnostics
• Electronic equipment
• Optical instrumentation
StripPax® – Sorbent / Desiccant Packets
These extremely durable, moisture and/or volatile absorbing packets are available in a wide variety of sizes, including low-profile, compact shape; with your choice of sorbent (silica gel, indicating silica gel, molecular sieve, activated carbon, and more). Uncoated, medical-grade Tyvek® creates soft, flexible desiccant packets that are durable and virtually puncture proof while simultaneously preventing damage to tablets or capsules, unlike the damage caused from hard canisters. The StripPax® are non-dusting and lint-free.
NatraSorb® – are bagged sorbents that protect against moisture damage such as deterioration, rust, corrosion, mould, mildew, and other problems in a variety of packaging applications. Available in a wide variety of size & bag material (heat-sealed, coated Kraft paper, non-woven sewn rayon, or Tyvek®) and desiccant (montmorillonite clay, silica gel, and molecular sieve).
Size applications ranging from 0.5 unit, 1 unit, 2 units, 4 units, 8 units, 16 units.
✅ Save Space, Reduce Cost
✅ High Performance Adsorption Capacity
Market Applications:
• Pharmaceutical • Machine Equipment • Machine Parts
Multiform CSF® Canister – Desiccant Canister
Save space and reduce costs with this superior compressed desiccant canister. With equivalent adsorption rate and capacity as traditional, loose-fill canisters, Multiform CSF® desiccant canisters are a more compact and efficient way to control moisture and volatiles. These effective moisture and odor control regulators help preserve the physical and chemical stability of your drug product, medical device, or dietary supplement.
Multiform CSF® desiccant canisters utilize a unique compressed, solid-form design with pharmaceutical-grade
coating. This careful design offers cost savings over traditional, larger loose-fill canisters. The high quality, virtually indestructible design of these non-dusting, non-separating desiccant canisters
ensures that your products are never compromised.
Market Applications:
• Pharmaceutical
• Medical Devices
• Dietary Supplements

SorbiCap® - Advanced Solutions for Moisture Regulation
SorbiCap® is made of FDA grade High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) so there is no need to perform additional compatability testing when switching from and alternative desiccant format of the same material. SorbiCap can withstand irradiation to allow for final product sterilization.
Market Applications:
Pharmaceuticals
Medical Diagnostic Kits
Dietary Supplements
Electronic Equipment
IntelliSorb® - Advanced Solutions For Moisture Regulation
When a conventional desiccant won’t do, trust IntelliSorb® moisture regulating sorbents to balance the physical and
chemical stability of your products. These highly customizable, intelligent sorbents play an active role in environmental
management within your device or drug packaging. IntelliSorb® product can also be combined with activated carbon for absorption of volatiles. These non-dusting, fibrous-free moisture regulators use FDA approved (21 CFR-compliant) materials suitable
for direct pharmaceutical contact. A Type III Drug Master File (DMF) for all IntelliSorb® platforms is
maintained.
Market Applications:
• Gelatine capsule cracking and
brittleness
• Cracking of gel and aqueous-based
tablet coatings
• Unstable drug and diagnostic
chemistries • Physical instability and static of DPI
formulations and devices
Common Uses: • Pharmaceuticals | • In-Vitro Diagnostics | • Medical Devices | • Dietary Supplements
Choose the right material and size to meet your adsorption rate and capacity needs
Supported Formats: Packets & Canisters - provide exceptional flexibility for any packaging operation
Size applications: from 50, 100, 200cc oxygen capacity in different levels of moisture (H31, H42, H60)
These packets can manage moisture to a specific ERH (Equilibrium Relative Humidity) target (+/- 5%) within the range of 10% - 95% ERH.
High quality, virtually indestructible solutions are available in an array of options. Select the format and size that fits your specific application.
StabilOx® – Specialty Oxygen Absorbers
StabilOx® inorganic oxygen absorbers rely on the irreversible oxidation of the scavenger. Since the reaction requires
moisture, the moisture must be provided in the scavenger itself, the product, or from the packaging environment.
StabilOx® provides its own moisture to initialise the oxygen removal process from the package.
StabilOx® eliminates or significantly reduces oxygen to decrease the rate of oxidative degradation in pharmaceutical
products. Manages headspace humidity (ERH) and drug product free moisture to reduce the rate of all chemical
pathways of degradation.
Market Applications:
