Laminated Barrier

Protection and Integrity for Packaging

The laminated barrier is an advanced packaging solution designed to provide maximum protection from moisture, gas, light and contamination. Thanks to its shielding properties, it preserves the integrity of packaged products, ensuring high standards of safety and durability. Its versatility makes it ideal for the medical, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries, where protection and compliance with standards are critical.

Features and Advantages

In the medical and pharmaceutical packaging industry, content protection is a key requirement. Barrier polybond offers advanced defense against moisture, oxygen, light and contaminants, preserving the integrity and safety of packaged products.

It is distinguished by its exceptional protective properties, making it a reliable and widely used solution for packaging medical devices, sterile products, and sensitive pharmaceuticals.

For maximum effectiveness and safety, this material offers a number of key advantages, including:

  • Gas and Moisture Barrier
    Polyacetal blocks the passage of oxygen (OTR – Oxygen Transmission Rate) and water vapor (WVTR – Water Vapor Transmission Rate), preserving product quality and sterility.
  • Protection from light and contaminants
    The barrier effect to UV light and external agents prevents chemical and microbiological changes, ensuring optimal preservation of the contents.
  • Sterilisation compatibility
    Polyacrylate is suitable for major sterilisation processes while maintaining its properties:

    • ETO (Ethylene Oxide).
    • Gamma irradiation
    • Steam or Autoclave (when coupled with suitable materials)
  • Mechanical strength and flexibility
    Provides a balance between strength and manageability, protecting devices without compromising their ease of use.

The laminated barrier is composed of multiple layers of different plastics, either metallized or transparent, that together provide a level of protection similar to that of aluminium, while offering a more sustainable environmental impact.

The absence of aluminium enhances the product’s recyclability, allowing targeted recycling of the plastic film only.

Applications in Packaging

Due to its excellent barrier properties, barrier polyacrylate provides protection, durability and safety.

Depending on specific storage needs, it is used in different packaging solutions designed to offer maximum effectiveness and reliability:

  • Multilayer pouches
    Ideal for syringes, needles, vials and sterile devices because of their excellent protection from contaminants and external agents.
  • Sterile pouches and pouches
    Perfect for surgical instruments and disposable devices, ensuring integrity and protection over time.

Why to choose the Laminated Barrier

Polyacrylate is an excellent choice for packaging because of its many advantageous properties.

  • lightness and strength: it is lightweight, facilitating easy handling and reducing transportation costs, while at the same time offering high resistance to impact and corrosion.
  • sustainability: allows for optimized packaging efficiency by reducing the overall amount of material used.
    A lighter structure means fewer resources used, less environmental impact and better classification in the recycling chain.
  • versatility: its pliability and malleability allow a wide range of shapes and sizes to be created, adapting to different design and functional requirements.

By choosing barrier polyacrylate, you not only ensure maximum product protection but also contribute to a more sustainable future.
