Thank you visiting the 2024 Tyvek® Sustainable Healthcare Packaging Award site. The deadline to submit an application this year was June 28th and the judges are now reviewing applications.

For more information on that event, visit our Medical Packaging conference website .
The Tyvek® Sustainable Healthcare Packaging Awards are open to any medical device, pharmaceutical, and sterile packaging manufacturer; healthcare facility; materials recovery facility; university; or other healthcare partner focused on sustainable packaging made with Tyvek®. Entries should be implemented within the last 18 months and show significant sustainably focused initiative and resulting metrics.
For medical device & pharmaceutical manufacturers or sterile packaging manufacturers. Have you been able to reduce packaging components by size or weight? Have you implemented mono-materials for ease of recycling or a package (re)design effort to support your sustainability goals?
For medical device & pharmaceutical manufacturers or sterile packaging manufacturers. Have you started printing in-line instead of applying labels? Maybe you've been able to reduce your sterilization cycle time or maximize your sterilization load?
For healthcare facilities, material recovery facilities, or universities. Have you developed a recycling program or a novel way to remove packaging waste from your facility? Have you implemented or are you partnering with others on an advanced recycling program?
