A leading pharmaceutical packaging supplier, Alcoa Flexible Packaging, Richmond, Virginia, is pleased to provide three specifications within its Safety-Pak* Plus line of trusted Safety-Pak blister lidding specifications.

It utilizes the traditional CR opening process, but provides the ability for a full-panel-peel without tearing, making this child-resistant material much easier for an adult consumer to open. Safety-Pak Plus PL lidding offers a child-resistant, peelable opening process developed for fragile pharmaceuticals or unique drug delivery medication systems. Safety-Pak Plus LT is Alcoa’s “lock-tight” lidding specification providing the ultimate in child-resistant lidding. Safety-Pak Plus LT requires a tool, such as scissors, for accessing drugs that require an F-1 rating.

All three Safety-Pak Plus specifications utilize the same exterior film that provides a higher quality printing substrate than paper, thereby enhancing brand graphics. The 200 gauge white polyester film is compatible with solvent-based, water-based and CSAT inks, and in-line printing processes. Safety-Pak Plus offers a broader sealing window that allows for secure seals at lower temperatures, a benefit to temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals; this also adds valuable seal processing latitude for high speed rotary sealing equipment. All Alcoa Safety-Pak Plus blister lidding specifications are available in trial quantities, unprinted, in as little as two weeks.

Alcoa Flexible Packaging will be providing daily demonstrations of Safety-Pak Plus at Interphex 2007, April 24 – 27, Booth 755, at 10:30 AM, 11:30 AM, and 1:30 PM daily. Alcoa Flexible Packaging will also be exhibiting its extensive packaging options including Safety-Pak & Drug-Pak* blister lidding, Alcoa Cold Form™ 3000 blister materials, printed shrink sleeve labels, pouch materials, tamper evident bands, foil overwraps, custom thermoformed packaging and Reynolon* shrink film overwraps. In addition, Alcoa Flexible Packaging will be offering its new Alcoa Advantage^sm program, a premium customer service program that provides speed-to-market benefits with sheet samples and trial rolls of Alcoa’s proven industry-standard materials delivered within days for evaluation, backed by Alcoa’s experienced, professional technical support.
