Amber-tinted reclosable bags that block harmful UV light to protect light-sensitive medications, pharmaceuticals, and electronic components during storage and transport. These 3 mil amber poly bags feature translucent UV-protective film that meets strict USP XXII and USP XXIII standards for light transmission, blocking over 90% of damaging UV wavelengths between 290nm and 450nm. The reclosable zipper closure allows for repeated access while maintaining protection, making them ideal for pharmaceutical dispensing, laboratory sample storage, and electronics component handling. Constructed from amber-tinted low-density polyethylene (LDPE), these bags provide a critical barrier against photodegradation—the chemical breakdown that occurs when light-sensitive substances are exposed to UV radiation. The translucent amber color allows for visual product identification while filtering out the specific wavelengths that cause degradation in medications, photographic materials, and light-sensitive electronic parts. Key Benefits: Meets USP XXII and USP XXIII procedure 66.1 for pharmaceutical light protection (≤10% transmission at 290-450nm) Reclosable zipper provides repeated access without compromising UV protection Translucent amber tint allows product visibility while blocking harmful wavelengths 3 mil thickness provides puncture resistance and durability for daily handling Static-free LDPE material safe for sensitive electronic components Specifications: 12" x 12" | 3 mil | Amber LDPE | Reclosable zipper | 1000/case | USP XXII/XXIII compliant Common Applications: Dispensing light-sensitive prescription medications (photosensitive antibiotics, nitroprusside, vitamin A derivatives), storing laboratory reagents and standards, protecting photographic film and chemicals, organizing light-sensitive electronic components (LEDs, photodiodes, sensors), archiving historical documents and photographs vulnerable to light damage. What are amber reclosable bags used for? Amber reclosable bags are specialized packaging designed to protect light-sensitive materials from UV degradation. They are commonly used in pharmacies for dispensing photosensitive medications, in laboratories for storing light-sensitive reagents, and in electronics manufacturing for components that degrade under UV exposure. What does USP XXII/XXIII compliance mean for amber bags? USP (United States Pharmacopeia) standards XXII and XXIII establish strict light transmission limits for pharmaceutical packaging. Compliant amber bags must block at least 90% of UV light between 290nm and 450nm wavelengths, the range most harmful to photosensitive medications and compounds. Can reclosable amber bags be reused? Yes, the zipper closure allows these bags to be opened and resealed multiple times while maintaining UV protection. This makes them practical for applications requiring repeated access, such as dispensing medications over time or organizing electronic components in inventory.
