The Flexible Packaging Assn.’s 59th Flexible Packaging Annual Awards competition awarded its Highest Achievement Award—Institutional to packaging material supplier Coveris for Intervoid® Sterile.

FPA says Intervoid Sterile represents a major breakthrough in flexible packaging for medical, food, and other specimen sampling through its integrated protection, labeling, tracking, and storage system.

“This unique package enables the delivery of a single, lightweight flexible sampling solution with obvious cost, environmental, safety, and supply chain advantages. Eliminating the risk of cross contamination and enhancing traceability and function, Intervoid products are both food contact-approved and UN3373-marked for product assurance and security against cross contamination. The sterile bags combine unique track-and-trace identification, patented tamper-evident closure and tape, which says ‘stop’ if tampered with or not sealed correctly,” said FPA.

Intervoid Sterile was launched in 2014 and is currently being used for various commercial applications via a number of specialist distributors, says Sian Bates, Group Marketing Manager, UK Food & Consumer with Coveris. “We are unable to disclose the end user of this product but within their industries, the benefits of using Intervoid Sterile include increased security of sampling, traceability of samples throughout the entire logistics chain, audit trail, use of sampling bags within a sterile environment, and increased efficiency with reduced waste.”

FPA says the Intervoid Sterile bag “marks a world first,” noting that by “fusing together a host of highly technical conversion methods, the sterile bags combine unique track-and-trace identification, patented tamper-evident closure and tape, perforation, and leak-resistant properties to deliver a composite, easy-to-use sampling solution for enhanced safety, security, and environmental impact.”
