Pouches and bags
We supply paper chevron pouches with medical-grade paper on one side and PET/PE film on the other. The paper prints well and usually costs less than Tyvek®, making these pouches a practical choice for devices without sharp features. They suit EtO, and gamma depending on the paper grade. Ask us about steam. Sourced from qualified manufacturers in North America and Europe.

What it's for
A paper chevron pouch works like a Tyvek® chevron pouch. The V-shaped seal starts a controlled peel, the paper side lets sterilant in, and the film side lets you see the device.
Paper is the economical porous side. It takes print well, so labels and markings stay easy to read. It is a practical choice for procedure-kit components and general devices.
The paper grade and the film together decide the sterilization method. Tell us whether you run EtO, steam, or gamma and we will match the construction. Then validate the pouch in your own cycle.
