MESSER IBÉRICA DE GASES SAU

Messer Ibérica de Gases SAU manufactures medical-grade gases, specifically carbon dioxide and liquid nitrogen. These gases are supplied in various forms for therapeutic uses, including cryotherapy (e.g., cryopreservation and cryoconservation) and general medicinal applications. The devices are designed for direct use in medical procedures where controlled gas delivery is required.

Messer Ibérica de Gases SAU is based in Spain, which places its devices under EU regulatory oversight. Since all its listed medical devices fall under Class IIa classification, they must comply with EU Medical Device Regulations (MDR) or the previous Medical Device Directive (MDD). The company registers its devices in EUDAMED, the EU’s centralised database for medical devices, ensuring transparency and traceability for regulatory authorities and healthcare providers.

Messer Ibérica de Gases SAU’s medical devices are listed in the EUDAMED database, which is the official EU registry for medical devices. This platform allows healthcare professionals, regulators, and authorities to verify device details, including classification, manufacturer information, and compliance status. EUDAMED is mandatory for all medical devices placed on the EU market, ensuring accountability and accessibility of regulatory data.

Messer Ibérica de Gases SAU’s medical devices are classified as Class IIa, the second-lowest risk category under EU regulations. This classification applies to gases used in therapeutic or diagnostic procedures where moderate risks (e.g., improper use or handling) could arise. Class IIa devices require conformity assessment procedures, including technical documentation and, in some cases, involvement of a Notified Body, to ensure safety and performance before market placement. The classification influences labeling, post-market surveillance, and compliance obligations.
