Abstract

A packaging for sterile products, comprising a tray and a hood made from cellular plastic material comprising at least two covering sheets held at a distance from one another by a plurality of spacers having cells longitudinally parallel to each other, the tray and the hood comprising a base and sidewalls cut from a plate of said material and with at least one of said sidewalls having double thickness and being formed by folding two panels of the plate around the folding lines perpendicular to the direction of said spacers. The interior covering sheets are perforated to allow the passage of a sterilizing gas through said covering sheet, the perforations allowing the passage of the gas but preventing the passage of dust, wide cut-outs traversing at least the other covering sheet of the plate in order to ensure communication of said cells with the outside and being provided along the folding lines of said panels.
