Below, we\u2019ll take a look at just 5 of the most common types of medical plastic bags, what they\u2019re used for, and what features they must have to get the job done safely and effectively.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Pharmacy Bags<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are three main characteristics that pharmacy bags must present: durability, privacy, and tamper resistance. Therefore, they\u2019re usually manufactured with extremely durable high-density polyethylene (HDPE) material and a sealed closure that reduces the potential for any tampering. They\u2019re also commonly made with an opaque color that hides what\u2019s inside, in an effort to protect patient privacy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Sterilization Bags<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In hospitals, doctors\u2019 offices, laboratory settings, and more, most medical equipment cannot be exposed to contaminants \u2014 which is where sterilization bags come into play. Sterilization bags are generally used in conjunction with a sterilizing device to effectively disinfect medical equipment so it is safe for use on patients. They\u2019re often tinted a translucent color, and are specifically designed to allow sterilizing chemicals, heat, vapor, or steam to enter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Specimen Bags<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Specimen bags are used for transferring potentially hazardous samples from hospitals to labs. They\u2019re made with highly durable packaging materials like HDPE, and are even sometimes built with a three-wall design that provides multiple levels of protection for both the specimen and the personnel handling it. Specimen bags can (and should) be customized to display a \u201cHAZARD\u201d marking, as well as other printed messages that provide pertinent information regarding the sample, such as the temperature it should be stored at.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Water-Soluble Bags<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Water-soluble bags are an environmentally friendly packaging option most commonly used to transfer contaminated clothing and linens to the laundry. This helps medical staff maintain hygiene and avoid any risk of contamination from hazardous specimens. These bags can accommodate moist or dirty linens for hours without damaging them, and they\u2019re completely soluble in water that is at least 140\u00b0F.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Transfer Bags<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the name suggests, transfer bags are used to transfer drugs from the pharmacy to the site where they\u2019re needed, whether that be a hospital or outpatient facility. In order to ensure all medications make it to the desired location safely, these bags are manufactured with durable materials, including a strong adhesive and tamper-evident seal closure. They\u2019re also usually customized with a label that explains their purpose.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Benefits of Using Poly Bags for Medical Plastic Bag Applications<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although there are plenty of packaging options that can uphold medical-grade regulations, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polybags.com\/poly-bags\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">poly bags<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are the best option for each of the previously mentioned applications.
