Release Liners for Medical Applications

Medical-grade release liners differ significantly from those used in other market applications. Medical release liners must be produced under more stringent cleanliness, traceability, and packaging protocols to avoid contamination and ensure performance.

Fox River Associates offers a full range of substrates and coatings to serve the many existing and developing medical applications. Choose from a full range of substrates from our medical release liner product offering:

• High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE):
  Known for its rigidity and moisture resistance, ideal for backing or carrier applications where strength is essential.
• Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE):
  Flexible and conformable, LDPE liners are excellent for wound care products, patches, and sensitive adhesive systems.
• Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET):
  PET liners provide excellent dimensional stability, high tensile strength, and resistance to extreme temperatures, making them suitable for precision medical applications like diagnostic strips and wearable sensors.
• Polypropylene (PP):
  Lightweight and chemically resistant, PP liners are frequently chosen for specialized medical adhesive products.
• Poly-Coated Papers:
  Offering the strength of paper with a protective poly layer, ideal for disposable medical products requiring moderate durability.
• Glassine Release Liners:
  A smooth, dense, and uniform paper option, often used for low to moderate tack adhesives.
• Equal or Differential Release Coatings:
  For applications requiring different release forces on each side—such as multilayer wound care dressings—our liners can be custom-coated to exact specifications.

Each release liner substrate will be provided with silicone coatings tailored for specific peel release values or non-silicone coatings as required for your application’s adhesive compatibility.
