Packaging expertise can stop fake drugs and help combat malaria
Every two minutes a child dies of malaria: a disease that can be cured with the right medicine. However, one third of all malaria drugs sold in Africa are counterfeit, containing nothing more than chalk or washing powder.
In order to end this tragedy, it is essential to take up the fight against counterfeit drugs. As pharmaceuticals in many developing countries are sold without any secondary packaging features, Constantia Flexibles highlights the importance of distinctive primary packaging. Elaborate design features allow customers to spot the difference between original and fake medicine at a glance. Some examples include security pigments, holograms, and security foil. Being among the global industry leaders, Constantia Flexibles applies highly advanced technologies to make primary packaging fake-proof.
The perfect balance between safety and ease of access
In recent years, an increasing number of medicines have been protected with child-resistant (CR) packaging. Notwithstanding this market trend, elderly people also need to be able to open packaging easily. They sometimes have other people empty tablets from blister packs into a bowl if they cannot open the packaging themselves which in turn poses a risk for children who live in the same household. As a result, one of the biggest challenges for medicine packaging is achieving the right balance between child safety and ease of access for elderly people. Constantia Flexibles meets these specific requirements with Child Resistant blister lidding foil.
CONSTANTIA Child Resistant is available in four different versions: Peel & Push, Peelable, Bend & Tear, and Push Through. All four options provide comprehensive protection against moisture, oxygen, and light, and can be customized to meet country-specific regulations.
