Coated medical-grade paper

We supply coated medical-grade paper in 60, 70, and 100 gsm. A heat-seal coating, applied as a grid, allover, or pattern, lets the paper seal onto trays, films, and blisters and peel away cleanly, with minimal fiber tear when sealed within the right window. It is compatible with EtO. Sourced from qualified manufacturers in North America and Europe.

What it's for

What it does in your package

A coating gives paper its own sealing layer. Uncoated paper usually seals to a film that carries the sealant. Coated paper brings the sealant with it, so it can seal directly to trays, films, and blisters.

The coating layout changes how the paper behaves. Grid and pattern coatings cover part of the surface and leave uncoated areas that help the paper stay breathable. An allover coating covers the full surface, which lowers the paper's porosity. If you sterilize with EtO, confirm gas exchange and aeration with an allover-coated web in your cycle.

A good heat-seal coating, sealed within the right window, is designed to separate at the seal instead of tearing the paper, which keeps fiber tear and loose fibers to a minimum when the package is opened. Check the peel on your own tray or film during seal trials.

Typical applications include

  • Rigid-tray lidding
  • Blister lidding
  • Paper-to-film seals

FAQ

Common questions

All FAQs

Which coatings are available?

Coated medical-grade paper is available with grid, allover or pattern heat-seal coatings:

  • Grid and pattern coatings cover part of the surface.
  • An allover coating covers all of it.

Tell us what you are sealing to and your sterilization method, and we will help you pick.

What does coated paper seal to?

The heat-seal coating lets the paper seal to trays, films and blisters. It is designed for a clean peel with minimal fiber tear when sealed within the right window, so paper fibers stay on the paper when the package is opened. Validate the seal on your own materials and equipment.

What basis weights are available?

Coated medical paper is available at these weights, including the coating:

  • 60 gsm, about 37 lb per 3,000 sq ft ream.
  • 70 gsm, about 43 lb.
  • 100 gsm, about 61 lb.

Custom widths and roll sizes are available. Give us your web width, core size, and roll length or diameter on the quote form.

Which sterilization methods can I use?

Coated medical paper is compatible with EtO. Gamma, e-beam and steam are not yet confirmed, so ask us before you plan a cycle. Compatibility depends on grade, coating, and your process. Validate in your own sterilization cycle.

Who makes the paper, and can I get samples?

Coated medical paper is sourced from qualified manufacturers in North America and Europe and supplied by CleanCut. We confirm each manufacturer's certification (standard, registrar and expiry) in writing as part of your supplier qualification. Each lot ships with our certificate of conformance, which records the manufacturer's lot number. To request samples, use the quote form and include the coating type and basis weight.
