Pharmaceutical Packaging

The packaging of pharmaceutical products and associated items is a very important task to get right.

Not only should we be concerned about 'drug' or prescription containment, but also the safety of our family.

Considerations to make when considering medical and pharmaceutical packaging are:

  • Protection
  • Moisture Barrier blisters_jo
  • Humidity Control packaging
  • Containment 
  • Peelability (various strengths)
  • Environmentally friendly
  • UV rays and Static prevention
  • Product promotion 

 

    We have a range of pharmaceutical packaging solutions suitable for various applications as follows. Please contact us to discuss an appropriate solution for your specific needs, or for a quote.

 

Push-Through Blister Foil - standard blister applications

Product is accessed in one step by pushing the blister contents through the foil lid.

Highly functional lidding foil providing the best possible protection with a minimum amount of material. 

  • extended product shelf-life
  • attractive product appearance
  • strong seal to PVC, PVdC, PP, PET
  • easy push through
  • total moisture, oxygen and light barrier
  • guaranteed to be pin-hole free for aluminium with thickness of 20um or less
  • suitable for inline printing on blister machine
  • possible for dual side printing
  • FDA/BgVV compliant

  

Electronic Compliant Packaging - for pharmaceutical or technical devices

Product is pushed through the foil backing, which destroys the conductive line - device recognises and records the push-through.

  • high protection
  • extended shelf-life
  • accurate administering, controlling, tracking and monitoring
  • attractive product appearance
  • compatible with PVC, PP, PET and cold formable blisters - strong seal
  • easy push through
  • total moisture, light and oygen barrier
  • suitable for inline printing on blister machine
  • possible for dual side printing
  • FDA/BgVV compliant
    •     

Cold-Formable-Foil - where very high barrier is required

  • suitable for extreme deep draw applications
  • highly effective barrier to moisture and oxygen - even after cold forming
  • total light barrier
  • high mechanical properties
  • extremely cold formable due to specifically designed layer formulations
  • high dimensional stability after cold forming
  • high speed processing, excellent cold forming
  • registered printability
  • FDA/BgVV compliant

  

Child Resistant Blister Foil - Peelable - for family safety and peace of mind

Perforated separation - allowing one blister to be distributed at a time, peelable top film

  • high child protection
  • suitable for fragile products
  • corner tear tab for opening (not push through), two step (separate and peel) activity for product access
  • sealable to PVC, PP, PET and cold formable blisters

  • suitable for inline printing on blister machine
  • possible for dual side printing
  • FDA/BgVV compliant

  

Child Resistant Blister Foil - Peel/Push - for family safety and peace of mind

Pharmaceutical packaging with maximum child resistance, a three step process is required to access the product-separate, peel, push; remove.

  • singular distribution via perforated blister cavities
  • corner tear tab for opening, aluminium foil (push through) three step activity for product access
  • sealable to PVC, PVdC, PP, PET and cold formable blisters
  • high sealing strength
  • consistent laminate peel
  • extended shelf-life
  • total barrier properties - light, oxygen, moisture
  • suitable for inline printing on blister machine
  • possible for dual side printing
  • FDA/BgVV compliant
    •

 

Child Resistant Blister Foil - Push - for family safety and peace of mind

For child resistance, pharmaceutical packaging with simple and safe access. 

  • extended shelf-life
  • appealing product appearance
  • total light barrier (i.e. product is not visible) 
  • sealable to PVC, PVdC, PP, PET and cold formable blisters
  • high sealing strength
  • consistent blister seals allowingsingle cavity opening without affecting other blisters
  • suitable for inline printing on blister machine
  • rotogravure or flexo-printing
  • BgVV compliant
    •

 

Pouch Foil- primary and secondary packaging

Suitable for packaging powders or medical devices, also suitable for using as a blister where protection from the primary packaging is not sufficient to guarantee intended shelf-life (due to extreme environmental conditions, i.e. tropical, very cold)

  • easy open: notch/tear tab to open on cross seals for product access
  • high mechanical properties
  • total light barrier
  • effective sealing in critical areas
  • high speed processing
  • FDA/BgVV complaint

 

Side-sealed bag - for liquid pharmaceuticals, in single doses

Designed specifically for the administration of single dose liquids. The structure provides absolute product protection, and no leakage

  • easy open, easy pour - tear/cut at the top and pour out the liquid
  • attractive packaging
  • NO leak -even under high pressure
  • high mechanicla resistance
  • high seal strength
  • low co-efficient of friction
  • rotogravure or flexo print
  • FDA/BgVV compliant

Strip Packaging - peelable - for pharmaceutical products or medical devices (surgical blades, needles, sutures)

Designed for medical products such as tablets and supositories, and medical devices to protect and maintain hygiene and sterilisation.

  • best possible product protection
  • easy peel - tear tab
  • attractive packaging
  • steralisable
  • total light, moisture and oxygen barrier
  • high puncture resistance
  • slightly cold formable
  • suitable for inline printing
  • rotogravure or flex print
