The June 2016 issue of Packaging Strategies features our cover story on the challenges and opportunities facing the medical and pharmaceutical packaging industries, and much more!
The medical and pharmaceutical packaging industries today face challenges and opportunities in light of recent growth, legislation changes and patient usage issues.
For a new production facility in South Carolina, Nephron was on the lookout for a supplier and service provider for secondary packaging line processing – taking products from the filling system to the pallet – and ideally, coordinated from a single source.
There is growing interest in consolidating palletizing/stretch wrapping operations closer to the shipping dock or warehouse facility in order to free up space for additional packaging capacity.
Adhesives and tapes are used in nearly everything that is packaged, from snack bars to baby wipes, and are used in labeling, reseal tabs and multipacking.
Due in part to intense competition, aggressive retail promotion and consumers seeking value, it is up to the package design – and the labeling – to lift sales in the household packaging market by differentiating brands and delivering value.
