Sterilisation Pouches, Tubing & Tapes for Medical Devices and Instruments
Paper Self-seal & Heat-seal Pouches
Quality manufactured for a clean fibre-free opening, these pouches are FDA and
ADA approved for use with Steam, EO, Dry Heat and Chemical vapour processes. Colour-changing
sterilisation chemical indicators are printed paper side (under the plastic film)
for exposure to the same sterilisation conditions as the packaged item(s).
Constructed with 45 lb. white medical grade paper and 0.25mm see-through and heat-resistant
poly-film, these pouches feature a "triple-seal rail" seal area to prevent
blowouts. The indicator arrow turns Brown in Steam or Chemical vapour sterilisation,
and Pink indicator turns Yellow in all EO processes.
Heat-seal pouches can be either mechanically or manually sealed with autoclave
tape.
- Extended thumb notch to assist with aseptic presentation
