Common buyer questions

01Why use PETG for a pharmaceutical inner tray?

PETG may be considered where clarity, formed detail and product presentation are useful, subject to project validation.

02Can PETG be used with every sterilization method?

No. The complete material and pack configuration must be checked against the specified sterilization process.

03What should a medical tray drawing identify?

It should identify product orientation, protected areas, contact points, removal features, tolerances and outer-package constraints.
