Medical Device Tyvek® Seal Quality And Peel Strength

Medical device packages face unique challenges along with stringent requirements. Class III medical devices must maintain product sterility for the duration of the product’s shelf-life, and upon use, must be easy to open. Tyvek® seal strength is critical for a product to survive transportation, shipping, and storage. Peelability of the pouch is equally as critical, providing those in a surgical environment the ability to deliver a device effectively into the sterile field while maintaining sterility.
