Medical packaging is polyethylene film packaging used for packing medical consumables. This page describes the product through its area of use; the film and the production method are the same as in our other PE packaging.
This product is not a sterile barrier packaging
We say this first and plainly. The product does not go through a sterilisation process and is not a sterile barrier system. Sterile barrier packaging is covered by separate standards such as ISO 11607, by separate testing and by a separate conformity assessment; this product is not within that scope. If your packaging has to be a sterile barrier, this is not the right place.
Production
The product is mono-material 100% polyethylene. The film is produced in our own facilities by blown extrusion as a single layer; there is no lamination, no barrier layer, no metallised layer and no non-polyethylene component such as paper, aluminium or polyamide. Flexographic printing is applied in our own facilities and goes up to eight colours. Cutting and sealing are also done in our own facilities.
Production is carried out under ISO 9001 quality and ISO 22000 food safety management systems.
Variants
A side or bottom gusset can be given. The surface can be gloss or matt. The film gauge is chosen to suit the job; printing goes up to eight colours and the product is also made unprinted.
Material and compliance
The product is mono-material polyethylene. Where recycled content is required, recycled polyethylene can be used at the requested share.
The mono-material polyolefin structure of the product supports its recyclability after use.
If you ship into the EU, this product falls within the scope of our declaration of material composition — the declaration covers garment and jacket bags, mailing bags, retail carrier bags and general purpose PE bags. You can find which documents you may request on our PPWR compliance page.

Frequently asked questions
