Transparent Polyolefin Based Flexible Film for Medical And Pharmaceutical Fluids

Tekni-Films and Colorite Europe Ltd have jointly developed a range of polyolefin based compounds and a specific extrusion technology to produce cost-effective glass clear autoclavable flexible sheet film for medical applications such as for instance IV and dialysis solution bags: TEKNIFLEX® MED.

Tekni-Plex Europe NV positions the film as superior in terms of appearance over current PP based sheet film. The clarity is as good as high-end polyamides in the skin layer, hence making TEKNIFLEX® MED film cost attractive.

Tekniflex MED is particularly suitable for the production of IV-bags, in combination with port tubes made of compatible compounds with the film.
