Ahlstrom launches ‘bio’ release papers

STOCKHOLM - Fibre‑based speciality materials manufacturer Ahlstrom has launched Acti‑V Bio, a new paper solution designed for release liners used in demanding pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) healthcare applications where contamination control and effective sterilisation practices play a critical role.

Acti‑V Bio expands the existing portfolio of Acti‑V release base papers, an Ahlstrom proprietary technology platform serving a broad range of release liner applications, with a new controlled-bioburden grade developed for healthcare applications that require consistent performance and high standards of microbiological control throughout the value chain.
