Billerud, a specialist in high-performance packaging materials for a low carbon society, has launched MediKraft SealBase, a surface-treated medical paper which it says is designed to meet the growing needs of the medical packaging industry.
The company says this a significant extension of its current medical paper product line. MediKraft SealBase was launched in mid-November 2024 at COMPAMED in Düsseldorf.
“MediKraft SealBase demonstrates our commitment to the medical segment and providing innovative solutions to our customers. This is a strategic step in broadening Billerud's product portfolio in medical paper, allowing us to cater to a wider range of medical applications and customers seeking alternatives to traditional latex-based cold seal products,” said Robert Torstensson, Vice President, Business Area Paper at Billerud.
Produced at Billerud’s Skärblacka mill in Sweden and made of pure virgin fiber, the 38 gsm grade MediKraft SealBase is the first product being released in this range. It is tailored to be a base paper for medical synthetic cold seal coatings, offering an innovative solution for medical applications where a sterile barrier system is not required – ideally suited for applications such as plaster and it also holds potential for use with latex-based cold seal coatings.
“An integrated pulp production ensures complete control of the manufacturing process, supported by comprehensive quality control systems. MediKraft SealBase also offers a competitive edge through our advanced sustainability credentials, solidifying our reputation as a trusted partner in providing high-quality, environmentally responsible medical paper products,” added Torstensson.
