Tyvek® Active Packaging
To protect the contents of a package during storage and transport.
DuPont™ Tyvek® Active Materials Packaging is a packaging and protection application developed especially to offer advanced protection for sensitive and active materials, such as pharmaceutical products or medical equipment, during storage and transport.
Health Care Desiccant
Moisture always presents a challenge when dealing with pharmaceutical and health products. The use of Tyvek® desiccant packs prevents moisture from affecting the chemical and physical stability of drugs and food supplements. These desiccant packs help to conserve the products throughout their shelf lives by absorbing the moisture in the product packaging. Also, the material is resistant to mold, chemicals and solvents.
Tyvek® products 1025B, 1059B en 1073B comply with the following regulations, which allows them to be applied in the pharmaceutical and health sectors:
- European Pharmacopoeia 3.1.3 and 3.1.5; USP <661.1>
- American FDA Food Contact Regulation (21 CFR 177.1520)
- European Food Contact regulations (EU N° 10/2011 and EC N° 2023/2006)
Electronics Desiccant
Developed to protect electronic elements from exposure to moisture and static electricity during transport and storage. Tyvek® products 1025D en 1056D can be used to maintain optimum humidity and prevent contact with static electricity.
Container Desiccant
Developed to protect the contents of containers during transport from the temperature variations that the container is exposed to. Varying temperatures can induce condensation that may damage the goods. Using Tyvek® products 1025D, 1056D, 1059B or 1073B will prevent this.
Food Active Packaging & Scavenger Sachet
Tyvek® products 1025B, 1059B, 1073B and 2058C may be used to preserve the freshness of foodstuffs in the food industry. Their breathability enables transmission of moisture, oxygen and ethylene, which makes these Tyvek® materials eminently suited for use as oxygen and ethylene scavenger sachets. In addition, the water resistance of these sturdy materials ensures safety and user-friendliness.
Tyvek® 1025B, 1059B, 1073B and 2058C comply with the following regulations, which allow them to be applied in the food industry:
- US FDA Food Contact Regulation (21 CFR 177.1520)
- European Food Contact regulations (EU N° 10/2011 and EC N° 2023/2006)
