What it's for
What it does in your package
Cold-seal packaging uses a cohesive coating that bonds only to itself. Press two coated surfaces together and they seal, with no heat applied.
Many cohesive cold-seal coatings are based on natural rubber latex. This coating is not made with natural rubber latex.
It is a light web for products such as gloves, dressings, and syringes. Sterilization compatibility depends on your process, so ask us before you validate.
Typical applications include
- Gloves
- Dressings

FAQ
Common questions
How does cold-seal paper seal without heat?
The paper carries a cohesive coating. Coated surfaces stick to each other when pressed together, with no heat. Because no heat is needed, it suits contents that should not be exposed to heat.
Is the paper made with natural rubber latex?
No. Some cold-seal coatings are made with natural rubber latex, which can cause allergic reactions in patients and staff. This paper's cohesive coating is not made with natural rubber latex.
What is cold-seal paper used for?
Typical applications include gloves, dressings and syringes. If you are not sure whether cold seal or heat seal suits your product, send us the details and we will help you decide.
Which sterilization methods can I use?
We have not yet confirmed compatibility for EtO, gamma e-beam or steam, so ask us before you plan a cycle. Tell us your method and we will find out what the material supports. Always validate in your own sterilization cycle.
Who makes the paper, and can I get samples?
Cold-seal paper is sourced from qualified manufacturers in North America and Europe and supplied by CleanCut. Manufacturer certificates are available on request. Each lot ships with our certificate of conformance, which records the manufacturer's lot number. Request samples on the quote form.
