Rilsan®
When sample integrity matters
Low migration bags for environmental, laboratory, and forensic applications
When collecting samples for testing and analysis, the quality of the sample is everything.
Even the most advanced laboratory equipment cannot compensate for contamination introduced during collection, storage, or transport.
That’s why organisations across environmental testing, forensic investigation, industrial monitoring, and laboratory applications rely on Rilsan®.
Produced from PA11, a high-performance material derived from castor oil, Rilsan® combines exceptionally low migration with excellent barrier properties to help protect sample integrity from collection to analysis.

Why choose Rilsan®?

Rilsan® has been developed for applications where accuracy and reliability are essential.
Key benefits include:
- Extremely low migration
- Excellent oxygen and moisture barrier
- High dimensional stability
- Outstanding chemical resistance
- Suitable for PID testing
- Broad operating temperature range
- Reliable performance in demanding environments
Because when test results matter, confidence begins with the sample.
Applications
Rilsan® is trusted across a wide range of technical and analytical fields.

Environmental sampling
Used for soil, groundwater, and environmental testing where contamination must be minimised and sample quality preserved.

Laboratory testing
Reliable storage and transport of samples destined for analytical testing.

Forensic investigations
Suitable for evidence collection and transportation where maintaining sample integrity is essential.

Oil & Gas
Used for specialised sampling applications in demanding environments.

Archaeology and research
Protecting valuable samples during collection, storage, and examination.
Suitable for PID testing
Rilsan® is particularly valued in applications involving Photo Ionisation Detectors (PID).
The material’s exceptionally low migration characteristics help reduce the risk of interference, making it a trusted choice for environmental consultants, laboratories, and technical specialists performing sensitive measurements.
Trusted when accuracy matters
Rilsan® is used by environmental consultants, laboratories, technical specialists, and organisations involved in sampling and testing where preserving sample integrity is critical. Its low migration properties make it a trusted choice for applications where reliable results depend on reliable sample collection and transportation.
A material with natural origins
Rilsan® is produced from PA11, a polymer derived from castor beans.
Unlike traditional fossil-based polymers, the raw material originates from renewable plant sources.
This offers several advantages:
- Reduced dependence on fossil resources
- Lower carbon footprint
- Recyclable material
- High-performance technical properties
For organisations looking to combine performance and sustainability, Rilsan® provides a compelling alternative.
Performance under demanding conditions
Technical applications often involve challenging environments.
Rilsan® delivers:
- Temperature resistance from approximately -40°C to +130°C
- Excellent moisture barrier properties
- High chemical resistance
- Long-term dimensional stability
- Strong and flexible material performance
The result is a sampling solution that performs consistently under real-world conditions.
