Flexible Packaging Films NEW!!! Taber Flexible Material Abrasion Kit Aids Selection of Medical Device Packaging Films Situation: When packaging sterilized medical devices or products, the integrity of the film is essential to ensure sterility of the device until usage. Film companies are spending considerable amounts of time and money optimizing complex film designs with the required durability properties, while competitive forces continue to drive customers to use thinner gauge films. With this trend, the risk of abrasion-induced failures increases dramatically. Taber’s Flexible Material Abrasion Kit allows engineers to analyze the variables that influence the abrasion resistance of packaging films to better understand and predict failures. Analysis: It is the manufacturer’s responsibilit
