Perfectly packaged

Primary packaging plays an important role – it is intended to protect medical products, while remaining user-friendly. The main objective is to put design and production expertise into practice. Phillips-Medisize will show visitors its expertise in developing and manufacturing pharmaceutical primary packaging made of plastics at Pharmapack. A variety of products will be displayed, ranging from special drug delivery devices, dosage systems, disposable insulin pens, inhalers, mixing injectors, bottles and caps, on to sterile multi-chamber bags. The company offers customers a complete end-to-end service, from the idea to the finished solution, including designing the product in sterile packing.

One of the items on display will be a spray applicator. This needed to be child-proof and made of PET. The customer awarded the contract to Phillips-Medisize not only because of the company’s technological skills but also because of its holistic approach to the project. The spray applicator is made of seven parts (the injection-stretch-blown PET container and the six injection-moulded parts made of PP or POM). The differently shaped parts require using multi-cavity tools of various sizes on injection moulding machines with clamping pressures of 50 to 200 tonnes.
