Laminates
Versatile and varied laminated packaging solutions for healthcare
Introduction
TekniPlex Healthcare can help you solve a host of packaging challenges, all while balancing cost and performance in a world with complex regulatory and testing requirements. We offer a wide variety of extrusion and adhesive laminates with various degrees of barrier protection to help ensure that your product's demanding performance requirements are met.
We manufacture a broad portfolio of extrusion and adhesive laminates using PET, nylon, paper, foil, PE, and ionomer. The goal is to specify structures that can handle the rigors of sterilization and distribution, as well as provide a wide operating window to create clean peels for a variety of applications. Extrusion laminates typically offer higher structural stability and lower raw materials inputs for the cost-conscious user, while our adhesive laminates have excellent barrier properties and can be run at very high speeds.
