Placon further solidified its position as an innovator in the medical packaging market by announcing the release of a new stock line of BargerGard® TPU pouches and tip protectors.
The new product line includes pouches with and without flaps, and a variety of tip protectors to safeguard rough and sharp medical components, including catheters, needles, screws, drills, and porous coated implants. The product line is made from thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), a nonabrasive material which protects finished, polished, and other surfaces from damage, as well as preventing denting or scratching to devices and trays.
“Our new stock BargerGard® line is a smart alternative to foam and vinyl protective packaging, and gives our customers a great resource for stock TPU without long custom lead times,” said Joyce Verstegen, Director, Medical Sales.
The new stock line comes in six sizes, and are die cut, and welded in ISO Class 8 cleanrooms, ensuring the highest levels of cleanliness for sterile barrier requirements. The products are also compatible with ethylene oxide (EtO), gamma, and eBeam sterilization.
All of Placon’s medical packaging is ISO12485 certified, which guarantees the company’s manufacturing processes comply with rigorous medical device industry standards.
