Twinplast develops specialist packaging range for medical items

The company is utilising its in-house technical team and advanced factory facilities to supply custom products for the storage and transportation of sensitive items including blood and tissue samples, medicines and pharmaceutical raw ingredients. Utilising the inherent durability and protective qualities of polypropylene, the range of packaging includes solutions designed and manufactured to secure vials, tubes, syringes tops and empty or full pouches. Available with anti-microbial and anti-static additives, each polypropylene container is biologically inert, non-toxic, and fully washable. Twinplast also provides custom printing for labelling and branding.

Tim Steer, commercial director at Twinplast, said: “We see the pharmaceutical and medical industry as a major growth market in the coming years. Our corrugated polypropylene is ideal for the high technical demands of logistical operations in the sector, where items often need particular care and enhanced protection in storage and transportation. Not only is corrugated polypropylene sterilisable, it’s also chemical, grease and water resistant, reusable, recyclable and strong yet lightweight.”

Toby Garrett, managing director at Twinplast, said: “An ability to manufacture infinite shapes and bespoke solutions is one of Twinplast’s foremost competitive advantages and it is a valuable resource for medical purposes. We have already established relationships with clients in healthcare and science,  producing clean room applications and sterilisable packaging that keeps contents dry, secure and protected for their use.  We have the technical know-how to ensure medical and pharmaceutical packages arrive at their destination safely and undamaged, regardless of their content.”

Twinplast offers the widest range of corrugated polypropylene products in the UK market.  The company supplies major UK businesses and organisations across a wide range of sectors including FMCG, retail, horticultural, construction, industrial, packaging and logistics.
