NORTH KINGSTOWN – Toray Plastics (America) Inc. has introduced a new product line of polyester films for the sterile packaging of medical supplies and equipment, the manufacturer announced May 8.
The Toray Lumirror GA10, GA25, and GA66 films are designed to retain their tensile strength and physical appearance for up to two years after undergoing the gamma irradiation sterilization process, making the films resistant to damage to storage or handling and allowing for clear visibility of the packaged product to ensure the item is still sterile.
