For instance, in October 2023, Coveris launched recyclable thermoforming film Formpeel P for medical packaging. Co-extruded puncture-resistant Formpeel P film is available on a peelable polyethylene (PE) or polyolefin (PO) base. Combined with a sustainable lidding film, the thermoformable polyamide-free bottom films comprise a sustainable packaging alternative for medical products. The materials withstand ethylene oxide, plasma, and gamma sterilization.
