It is extremely important for the success of medical treatment that patients adhere exactly to the medication prescribed to them. Numerous studies prove that adherence to therapy pays off. But studies also show that many patients ignore their treatment plans – out of stubbornness, carelessness or excessive demands. This so-called non-adherence not only jeopardizes the success of treatment, but also causes immense costs for the health care systems.
Hoffmann Neopac, a global provider of high-quality packaging for a broad array of industries and applications, has introduced the market’s first fully recyclable polyethylene-based tubes with high-density polyethylene (HDPE) flip-top caps. A breakthrough in the worldwide push for packaging sustainability, the mono-material tube + cap combination overcomes a longstanding functionality hurdle for hinged caps, which were previously made predominantly from less recyclable polypropylene (PP) materials.

Migration is the transfer of chemical compounds from plastic packaging materials into food products.
These chemical compounds are usually present in inks and adhesives that travel through the primary packaging material to contaminate the contents. This can be extremely dangerous when the contents are either food or medicines.
Earlier, migration testing was only performed on containers, closures and other packaging components, excluding labels.
Cap-Lock is a combination of cap adapter and label. The adapter is placed on top of the primary closure of the syringe and equalizes the diameter differences of the syringe body and cap. The label wraps around the syringe body and the cap adapter. Once the syringe is opened, the integrated perforation provides irreversible tamper evidence. Cap-Lock plus RFID has an additional label-integrated RFID chip embedded in the upper part of the label at the level of the cap. Because the chip largely sits outside the liquid-filled area it enables reliable long-range reading.

The variability in batch sizes and the corresponding impact on packaging line efficiencies is an accepted norm throughout the pharmaceutical industry. Lengthy changeover procedures coupled with small batch sizes have a negative impact on KPI’s designed to track and improve inventory, throughput times, OEE and costs.
