Members of the Amcor HealthCare team recently attended the Medical Packaging Conference (MPC) in Frankfurt, Germany, hosted by DuPont. The MPC brings together global leaders in healthcare packaging to showcase innovations that enhance sustainability, efficiency and patient safety across the supply chain. One of Amcor’s longstanding experts on healthcare packaging, Neil Hawkesford, Senior Product Manager Laminates & Sustainability, gave a presentation on packaging strategies for companies looking for decarbonization opportunities in their supply chain.

At the MPC, DuPont recognizes innovations in the healthcare packaging industry. The Amcor team took home the Operational Efficiencies Award at 2025 DuPont™ Tyvek® Sustainable Healthcare Packaging Awards. The award celebrates companies that demonstrate outstanding innovation and measurable impact in healthcare packaging.

This award was for the development of ACT2100™ Air Peel Technology, a next-generation Tyvek® heat seal coating for healthcare packaging. The Air Peel Technology delivers 25% stronger seals and 50% greater breathability than comparable products, supporting faster, more reliable sterilization cycles and ensuring packaging integrity in demanding conditions. With consistent application and fiber-free peels, ACT2100™ Air Peel Technology enhances usability, reduces manufacturing risk, and strengthens supply chain reliability through manufacturing capabilities across multiple Amcor global sites.

The award reflects the team’s ongoing commitment to delivering innovative, high-performance packaging solutions that meet the evolving needs of the healthcare industry.
