Material Notes
Amber-tinted polyethylene with translucent UV-blocking properties. The amber color additive is engineered to meet USP XXII and USP XXIII Procedure 66.1 requirements for light transmission, making these bags compliant for pharmaceutical packaging applications requiring light protection. Not intended for food contact use.
Use Case Notes
USP-compliant amber bags are commonly specified for unit-dose medication storage, photosensitive reagent containment, and light-sensitive electronic or optical component packaging. The reclosable zipper allows partial removal of contents while maintaining light exclusion for remaining materials. The 9"x12" format accommodates standard pharmacy documentation packets, lab specimen bags, and medium-format component pouches.
