Looking to increase sustainability efforts in your medical packaging? Oliver Healthcare Packaging’s technical team in Ireland, with the help of EK-Pack (recently acquired by Oliver), developed two new materials —LF-2035AVR and UF-2050AVR. These new adhesive-laminated films are unique in that each layer in the film comes from the same polymer family, polyolefin, making them ideal for recycling. The triple-A status for recyclability includes the full pouch (films sealed to DuPont™ Tyvek®). In addition to being recyclable, both materials are locally sourced from EK-Pack in Germany; using locally sourced material is another great step to decrease your carbon footprint.
