Sterigenics International, the parent company of Canadian isotope firm Nordion and sterilization services vendor Sterigenics, has changed its name to Sotera Health.
The new name was inspired by Soteria, the Greek goddess of safety, and reflects the company's commitment to global health, Sotera said. Sotera's three operating companies -- Nordion, Sterigenics, and lab testing services and consulting firm Nelson Labs -- will retain their current names.
