Neenah Adds To Ultra-Lightweight Reinforced Sterile Packaging Line Alpharetta, Georgia based Neenah, Inc., a leading North American supplier of reinforced medical packaging pa- pers, has announced an ultra-lightweight addition to their single-use sterile packaging offering. This innovative, high-performance solution introduces the market to a du- rable, cost-saving alternative to kraft and synthetic-based medical packaging traditionally used for nasal swabs, sy- ringes, and other single-use applications. “This ultra-lightweight addition brings new opportu- nities closer in reach with our global sterile supply chain partners,” said Valerie Henderson, Medical Packaging Product Manager for Neenah. Single-use medical devices are gaining popularity as they help lower costs, increase efficiency, and reduce the spread of infection. Most single-use devices have a shelf life of 3-5 years, making it imperative that the sterilization process remain intact from supplier to opening at the final destination. Kraft-based medical packaging, used for sin- gle-use devices, can tear or burst due to packing or trans- portation style. It is essential that medical packaging be durable, especially if it is lightweight. The new ultra-lightweight 72 gsm (grams per square meter) grade joins Neenah’s medical packaging offering that currently includes lightweight 85 gsm and heavy- weight 112 gsm options. The entire paper-based product line is manufactured using FSC controlled fibers, com- pliant with regulatory standards, and accepts steam and Ethylene Oxide (EO) sterilization methods. These products also deliver superior breathable barrier properties, plus excellent conformability and printability. “Recently, we’ve witnessed extreme and unprecedent- ed growth in the wound care market. With this revolution- ary, ultra-lightweight reinforced paper, Neenah is reacting in real-time to help our customers grow and embrace new opportunities. I’m excited to bring this innovative solution to the market,” says Jaime Zohrer, International Sales De- velopment Manager for Neenah.
