Sterile Barrier Packaging

A barrier that breathes,
never compromises.

Our DuPont™ Tyvek®-based packaging delivers the highest standard of sterile barrier protection for medical devices — from peel-open pouches to breathable lid covers heat-sealed onto PETG blue blister trays for orthopaedic implants.

Anatomy of a Sterile Pouch

Four layers. One sterile promise.

Every Candid peel pouch is a precision laminate — engineered so sterilant gets in, microbes stay out, and the seal opens clean in the OR.

01
1073B / 1059B

DuPont™ Tyvek® Lid

High-density polyethylene spunbond — the breathable face that lets sterilant pass while blocking bacteria and particulates.

02
Chevron / Straight

Peel Seal Bond

A calibrated heat seal that holds through sterilization and shipping, yet peels fibre-free for clean aseptic presentation.

03
Clear / Opaque

Film Bottom Web

Transparent or printed film forming the pouch body — pre-formed or form-fill-seal for visibility and product protection.

Your Device

The Protected Device

Implants, instruments and single-use devices held in a validated, tamper-evident sterile environment until point of use.

Our Tyvek Range

Two solutions, one barrier standard.

01 Tyvek peel pouches for medical devices
Peel Pouches

Lid Covers

Tyvek Lid Covers

Breathable Tyvek® lid covers heat-sealed onto PETG blue thermoformed blister trays — designed for orthopaedic implants such as hip and knee components. The Tyvek header forms the microbial barrier while the PETG blister cradles the implant in a custom cavity.

  • PETG blue blister
  • Heat-seal bonding
  • Custom cavities
  • Printed branding
  • Hip & knee implants
  • Tamper-evident
Material Advantage

Why Tyvek® is the gold standard.

An impassable microbial barrier

The HDPE spunbond structure blocks bacteria and particulates down to sub-micron level — while staying porous enough for sterilant gas to pass freely. Protection without suffocation.

Clean Peel

Fibre-free, consistent opening for safe aseptic presentation.

Puncture Resistant

Exceptional tear strength protects integrity in transit.

Moisture Resistant, Still Breathable

Hydrophobic material repels water and liquids while remaining permeable to sterilant gases — the balance that defines a true sterile barrier.

Extended Shelf Life

Validated barrier integrity for 5+ years, stored correctly.

Custom Printing

Flexographic branding, UDI, lot codes and regulatory markings.

Sterilization Compatibility

Validated for every major cycle.

Tyvek® performs across the most widely used sterilization methods in the medical device industry — without losing seal strength or barrier integrity.

Gas

EtO Sterilization

The breathable structure lets ethylene oxide penetrate and dissipate fully, with barrier integrity intact post-cycle.

Full Gas Permeation
Radiation

Gamma Irradiation

Compatible with gamma sterilization with no significant material degradation — ideal for single-use device packaging.

50 kGy Rated
Electron

E-Beam Sterilization

Validated for electron beam processing — seal strength and microbial barrier hold through irradiation.

100% Seal Retention
