More and more companies in the pharmaceutical industry are anchoring sustainability in their strategic corporate goals – and implementing sustainability initiatives within their entire value chain. One catalyst on the way to a more sustainable business is packaging. Thus, the substitution of a less environmentally friendly packaging concept with a recyclable alternative can have a major impact on the environmental impact of the respective product. As a PP-based mono solution, the innovative PharmaGuard blister concept is recyclable - and meets the specific requirements of the pharmaceutical industry.

The bottom and lidding films are produced applying a unique coextrusion process. Both film structures are based on PP and are perfectly aligned to each other, particularly in terms of their sealing performance. This guarantees not only the highest packaging quality, but also maximum safety in a highly efficient process. Depending on the product to be packaged, the PharmaGuard films can be equipped with different barrier and mechanical properties for optimum product protection and best possible stability. Compared to the PP-based blister film solutions currently available on the market, the SÜDPACK solution also scores with a particularly high level of transparency, allowing a high visibility of the product. A screening life cycle analysis carried out by Sphera proves that the packaging concept has a significantly lower climate impact (in CO2-eq.) of up to 47% as well as a lower energy and water consumption compared to the blister solutions commonly used.
