SMS and SMMS sterilization wrap
Polypropylene nonwoven sheets for wrapping medical devices and instrument trays. SMS and SMMS identify different material structures, so the structure is part of the product specification.

Material and format
The SMS and SMMS wrapping materials in the Mediwish range use polypropylene nonwoven layers. These sheet materials are a separate product format from crepe paper, pouches and reels.
| Parameter | Product information |
|---|---|
| Material | Polypropylene nonwoven |
| Material structure | SMS or SMMS, depending on the version |
| Supply format | Sheets for wrapping |
| Application | Medical devices and instrument trays |
| Wrapping role | Inner or outer wrapping within the selected packaging system |
Wrapping applications
The sheet format is used to wrap a medical device or tray, rather than place it inside a ready-made pouch. The Mediwish family catalogue describes both inner and outer wrapping applications.
Identify the material
Specify SMS or SMMS when selecting the wrap. Structure and grammage are separate characteristics of the ordered material.
Match the sheet to the load
Sheet dimensions and wrapping configuration form part of the packaging setup for the device or tray.
Select the wrapping configuration
Select the material structure, sheet dimensions and grammage together with the intended sterilization process and load configuration. Compatibility is specific to that material version and packaging setup; a general family method list does not make every wrap interchangeable.
The material forms part of the packaging system. The wrap itself does not establish that a sterilization process has succeeded.
Information for your order
Include the required SMS or SMMS structure, sheet dimensions, grammage, colour, quantity and packaging unit. For an established product, include its reference so the supplied material and documents can be matched to the same specification.
Specify the wrap for your devices and trays
Bring the material structure, sheet format and packaging requirements together in one product specification.
