High Performance Lidding

Form Fill Seal Lidding

Zone-Coated Lidding

Soft Peel Lidding

 







Tyvek® Lidding

DuPont Tyvek® offers a unique combination of strength, porosity, bacterial barrier, moisture repellency, purity, and printability that makes it an outstanding lidding material for health-care packaging. TOLAS offers high performance Tyvek® lidding for EtO and radiation sterilization, zone-coated adhesive lidding for steam and dry-heat sterilization, overall heat-seal coated and zone-coated lidding for form-fill seal applications and soft-peel lidding for non-sterile packaging applications.

High Performance Lidding for EtO and Radiation Sterilization

TPT-021C is high performance heat-seal coated Tyvek® 1073B lidding for EtO and radiation sterilization. Offering a 20-40° F wider seal window on most plastics when compared to other lidding, TPT-021C's lower sealing temperature allows for shorter dwell time, minimizing flange distortion and Tyvek® seal transparentization. The result is higher productivity for the end user.

Heat Seal Lidding for Form-Fill-Seal & Flexible Packaging Applications

Available in three grades of Tyvek®, coated with advanced sealants, our form-fill-seal lidding shows superior performance features over other coated or uncoated materials. High hot tack and a wide seal temperature range enables sealing at lower temperatures and higher speeds while forming strong seals to flexible forming webs.


TPT-0231A: 1073B Tyvek® coated with a F-F-S heat-seal coating. This product provides maximum protection and processability and combines the strength of 1073B Tyvek® with superior seal qualities. TPT-0237A: 1059B Tyvek® coated with the 0231A adhesive for F-F-S. A lighter weight version of 1073B Tyvek®, 1059B extends yield to get more units per pound. TPT-0268: New 2FS Tyvek® coated with TOLAS high performance F-F-S heat seal adhesive. TPT-0268 provides the highest yield achievable with a medical grade Tyvek® thus offering significant economies approaching that of coated papers. (See What's New for more information)


Zone Coated Adhesive Lidding for Steam and Dry-heat Sterilization

TPT-0281Z is DuPont 1073B Tyvek® with our proprietary zone coated adhesive designed to withstand controlled autoclave temperatures up to 250-260° F. TPT-0281Z is ideal for use when rigid tray packaging is specified and product sensitivity rules out radiation or EtO sterilization. TPT-0281Z is tear and puncture-resistant and is easily and cleanly peelable in its end use with virtually no particulate.

 

Soft-Peel Lidding

Specifically designed for non-sterile packaging applications, TPT-0234 is 1073B Tyvek® with an adhesive coating designed to provide an easy peel with a visual seal transfer and bond strengths between .75 and 1 lb. (See What's New for article on package using TPT-0234 lidding originally published in the DuPont Rx)
