The medical industry demands materials that meet the highest standards of precision, cleanliness, and reliability. GMLUK's medical-grade paper solutions represent decades of research and development, delivering uncompromising quality for critical healthcare applications.
Industry Certification
All GMLUK medical-grade papers are manufactured in ISO 13485 certified facilities and comply with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 requirements for electronic records and signatures.
Understanding Paper Porosity
Paper porosity—the measure of air permeability through the material—is critical for medical applications. Our proprietary manufacturing process controls porosity at the micron level, ensuring consistent performance across millions of units.
"Precision at the micron level is not just a goal—it's a requirement when patient safety is at stake."
Porosity Measurement Techniques
We employ multiple testing methodologies to validate porosity specifications:
- Gurley densometer testing (TAPPI T536)
- Sheffield porosity measurement
- Bendtsen smoothness analysis
Quality Assurance
Every production batch undergoes rigorous testing. We maintain 99.9% quality compliance with zero tolerance for contamination in medical-grade products.
Sterilization Compatibility
Medical devices often require sterilization before use. Our papers are compatible with multiple sterilization methods without compromising structural integrity or analytical performance.
Important Note
Always validate sterilization protocols with your specific application. Contact our technical team for compatibility guidance.
Supported Sterilization Methods
Our medical-grade papers maintain performance across these sterilization approaches:
- Gamma Irradiation - Standard 25-50 kGy doses
- Ethylene Oxide (EtO) - Low-temperature gas sterilization
- Autoclave - Steam sterilization for compatible applications
"We reduced contamination incidents by 87% after switching to GMLUK medical-grade papers."
Environmental Responsibility
Sustainability and medical-grade quality are not mutually exclusive. GMLUK's commitment to environmental stewardship extends throughout our manufacturing process.
