Billerud has launched MediKraft SealBase, a new surface-treated medical paper crafted from pure virgin fiber. This launch expands Billerud’s existing medical paper line and will be showcased between November 13–16 at Compamed, the medical technology fair in Düsseldorf, Germany. Produced at Billerud’s Skärblacka mill in Sweden, MediKraft SealBase debuts with a 38 gsm grade. Developed as a base paper for synthetic cold seal coatings, it provides a solution for medical packaging applications where a sterile barrier system is unnecessary, such as for plasters. The paper also shows potential for applications with latex-based cold seal coatings.
