Propypel - Hospital Pouches
A cellulose-based steam sterilizable web developed for the manufacturing of hospital pouches and tubing with medium to high seal strength and very high speed output on pouch making lines. Suitable for sealing to PET-PP film, and for sterilization in prion-cycle conditions. Thanks to its very high fiber cohesion and unique manufacturing recipee, Propypel Premium 60 gsm can be sealed in multiple directions and still present excellent peel performance upon opening
Propypel Pemium is the #1 packaging material worldwide for the manufacturing of hospital pouches & tubing. Its 60 gsm version is widely used in Europe & America for the packaging of re-usable medical devices.
