Folding Cartons

 

‘Pharmaceutical packaging’ refers to any packaging container or material used to preserve or protect pharma products such as medications, ingredients, and medical devices. It includes primary packaging that is in direct contact with the product itself – such as blister packs for tablets – as well as secondary packaging like cartons, and specialised tertiary packaging that is used to transport products through the supply chain.

All of these different formats are critical for protecting products, ensuring regulatory compliance in various markets across the world, and maintaining stability in sensitive medications. 

International standards such as Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), and regulatory bodies including the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) help ensure healthcare packaging is designed with patient protection in mind.

To ensure compliance with these standards, we support customers in incorporating smart labelling, traceability, and anti-counterfeiting features.

Secondary packaging consists of any container that holds primary packaging. It is used to add an extra layer of protection to medical products while also serving to carry information that can be used to inform patients and verify product authenticity.

By preventing damage or contamination, it ensures compliance with strict safety legislation and quality control standards.

 It usually consists of:

  • Folding cartons
  • Labels
  • Leaflets
  • Fitments

We offer a range of innovative, value-adding pharmaceutical packaging features that can enhance patient care, improve compliance, and meet sustainability goals. This includes:

  • Micro-optics developed in partnership with security experts Crane, providing a robust authentication solution
  • Smart packaging with NFC and RFID technology for improved track and trace capabilities
  • Re*flect sustainable metallic effects provide an alternative to traditional metallised PET
  • Clear Code® technology enables customers to apply complex variable codes, meeting modern serialisation requirements.

Our facilities maintain ISO 9001, PS9000, and GMP compliance certifications specifically for pharmaceutical manufacturing. These rigorously-maintained standards ensure our pharmaceutical secondary packaging meets the highest quality and regulatory requirements across global markets.
