PAXXUS University Breaking the Barrier Webinar Recording

Multilayer films that include an aluminum foil layer have long been used in medical device and pharma packaging to provide outstanding barrier protection. Given recent concerns about the intense energy requirements of thin-gage foil production, recyclability challenges of foil-containing multilayer films, and the increasing need for product inspectability, clear high barrier materials have been gaining traction in sterile barrier packaging. Options that provide the appropriate level of barrier protection against water vapor and oxygen gas ingress or egress and allow the elimination of aluminum foil are generally available. In this webinar we will summarize the state-of-the-art technology of clear high barrier materials across the range of chemistries and give examples of their effective use in medical device packaging applications.
