Pierceable Foil Lidding Offers High Barrier for Diagnostic Accuracy

AccuPierce allows for a clean, quick puncture in sensitive testing environments. It is able to contain the often-aggressive chemicals used as reagents and will seal to a wide variety of materials.

PAXXUS features its new AccuPierce pierceable foil lidding at PACK EXPO Las Vegas this week (Booth #SL6256).

Demand for diagnostics has been soaring, yet packaging diagnostic reagents can be challenging for a number of reasons:

  • Strong reagents can interact, or even attack, sealants used with traditional push-through foil options.
  • While providing strong barrier, the lidding should pierce easily. Devices require a high degree of repeatability.
  • There is a broad range of materials used to create the reagent wells, so lidding must accommodate the container while also being capable of hermetically sealing to narrow sealing surfaces.

AccuPierce pierceable foil lidding is a composite material consisting of a highly-controlled aluminum foil paired with PAXXUS’ chemically resistant, high-barrier Exponent™ sealant—it allows for a clean, quick puncture requiring low force in sensitive testing environments.
