Tablets, pills, capsules; with Locked4Kids they can be packed cost effectively in a carton/blister combination. Whether you need large volumes or small quantities, Locked4Kids offers a solution via highly automated packaging companies or via suppliers which are able to produce special or limited editions by hand.
Locked4Kids child resistant cartons have been developed for high speed automated production on standard pharmaceutical packaging equipment supplied by companies such as Romaco, Uhlmann, Pentapack, etc. Blister strips are loaded top down into a tray, which is then inserted into the child resistant carton. With Locked4Kids cartons, you can achieve the same packaging process speeds as with regular (non CR) cartons.
In Europe approximately 80% of all tablet and capsules are packed in blister strips and retail cartons. In the US, bottles cover the majority of medicine packaging. Both solutions face big disadvantages regarding child resistancy.
Today the European way of packing medicines in child resistant cartons is only possible using specialty packaging systems which are very expensive to produce. On the other hand, packing medicines in inexpensive bottles, the standard in the US, does not offer protection against moisture and contamination. And, neither production batch numbers, nor expiry dates can be communicated as desired.
Today, after years of development, Locked4Kids can handle all these requirements.
Tatsache ist, dass Blister die Unversehrtheit von Tabletten und Kapseln viel besser gewährleisten als eine Flasche. Blister schützen die einzelne Dosis vor Feuchtigkeit und Verunreinigung. Außerdem können auf jedem einzelnen blister Chargennummern und Verfallsdaten aufgestempelt oder aufgedruckt werden. Und - im Gegensatz zu Flaschen - ist auf Blistern deutlich zu erkennen, ob Arzneimittel manipuliert wurden. Die Kosten für kindersichere blister Verpackungen waren jedoch hoch. Bis jetzt. Denn Locked4Kids bietet eine kostengünstige Produktion von kindersicheren Kartons zur Verpackung von Blistern.
