AmFiber™
AmFoil™
Plastic based
Delivers strength and tear resistance with thinner films, while uncoated DuPont™ Tyvek® headers offer increased porosity and reduced sterilization cycle times.
Applications
Healthcare
Medical
- Catheters, Guidewires & Stents
- Procedure Kits
- Drapes & Protective Materials
- Tubing & Collection Systems
Overview
Features
- Improved sustainability compared to typical header bags due to film downgauging, no coating, and reduction in header layers
- Less force is required to open Fortis™ compared to traditional header bags which results in increased safety and efficiency
- Multi-layer blown film enhances strength at thinner gauges compared to competitive header bags, reducing material use, waste, and carbon footprint. This approach boosts efficiency and supports environmental sustainability, benefiting businesses and the planet
Customer benefits
- Improved Seal Strength: Reduces distribution testing failures by 24% with zero incidents of burst or creep failures
- Improved Ergonomics: The bags require less force to open than traditional ones, which reduces the risk of dropping instruments
- Faster Sterilization Cycle Times: Uncoated header improves porosity
End consumer benefits
- Reduced Contamination Risk: Core Peel allows for a quick visual inspection of seal integrity. The uncoated header reduces the number of particles near the opening
