This package utilizes a sterile sealed inner and outer tray to hold the sterile tube that is sealed by a Tyvek lid, which can be peeled back to access the tube. The outer and inner sterile barriers have a unique grip feature on the edges, which will allow for easier and more secure handling of the sterile barrier when wearing medical gloves. The sterile tube uses our non-abrasive BargerGard® polyurethane material to create a secure package for medical screw implants and other implant/instrument assemblies.
