Thousands of tonnes of plastic rubbish drift in the seas of Asia, the region environmentalists cite as the biggest source of the petrochemical waste that chokes coastal waters and leaves beaches looking like rubbish dumps.

Prefilled syringes require special security solutions to reliably protect both the active ingredients and the syringe. Syringe-Closure-Wrap features an innovative design: The label wraps around the entire cap and syringe barrel like a kind of second skin. This film wrap is sealed at the top, thus securing the integrity of the syringe until the injection is performed. Opening the label activates a first-opening indication feature. Special security die-cuts result in the partial destruction of the label and prevent reclosing it unnoticeably.

With Linhardt's Top Tube material reduction is key. Unlike normal tubes, the shoulder of the Top Tube takes up the function of the cap‘s head plate. By integrating the shoulder into the flip-top cap, it is possible to forego the head plate. Thanks to the specifically adapted shape of the shoulder an additional material reduction in the shoulder could be realized. As a result, the weight of a 200 ml Top Tube with reduced wall thickness is cut by almost half compared to a standard tube.
