Abstract

This document specifies test methods and values for paper used in the manufacture of single-use paper bags (specified in EN 868-4) and in the manufacture of single-use pouches and reels (specified in EN 868-5) used as sterile barrier systems and/or packaging systems for terminally sterilized medical devices by means of sterilization processes that require properties specific to higher temperature sterilization, such as moist heat sterilization used in healthcare facilities. Other than the general requirements as specified in EN ISO 11607-1 and EN ISO 11607-2 [2], this part of EN 868 specifies materials, test methods and values that are specific to the products covered by this document.
