Zillion Black® Needle Holder Mayo-Hegar

The existing array of Zillion Black® single-use instruments (SUIs) are molded from a high-stiffness, medical-grade Ixef® GS-1022 GY51 gamma-stabilized polyarylamide (PARA) resin and includes curettes, a wide variety of forceps, needle holders, and skin staple removers. The European-made Zillion Black® SUIs are manufactured under strict clean room conditions, sterilized in-house using ethylene oxide (EtO), and are EU medical device CE Class IIa certified, under an EN ISO 13485-2016 registered quality system.

“Hospitals and healthcare practices are now, more than ever, in need of ready-to-use ambulatory and operating theatre instruments that offer optimal mechanical and ergonomic properties with minimum handling costs,” said Luis Guimarães, CEO atBastos Viegas. “Solvay’s Ixef® PARA provides rigidity, dimensional stability and metal-like strength, which are essential to the performance of our Zillion Black® single-use instruments.”
