Pharma Packaging
PFM offers pharmaceutical manufacturers a complete range of flexible packaging solutions designed to ensure product protection, process reliability and consistent sealing performance. Easy to integrate into controlled production environments, PFM machines enable precise handling and high quality packaging.
Example of pharmaceutical products:
Blistered Tablets & capsules
Pharmaceutical tablets are sealed in blister packs and overwrapped in flow pack for added protection and tamper evidence.
PFM flow-wrap solutions ensure hermetic sealing, controlled handling and full pack integrity, protecting blistered pills from contamination, moisture and mechanical stress during storage and distribution.
Injectable vials & ampoules
Glass or plastic bottles, vials and apoules require secure, tamper-evident packaging and full contamination control.
PFM flowpack solutions with high-resistance films and hermetic sealing ensure product protection and pack integrity. Robotic handling systems minimize contact and stress on containers, guaranteeing safe and controlled primary packaging.
Medical kits & devices
Medical kits, cannulas, syringes and sterile gauze require protective primary packaging with validated sterile barriers and consistent sealing performance. PFM flow-wrap and pouch systems with medical-grade laminates, hermetic or peelable seals and integrated robotic pick-and-place handling ensure contamination control, product protection and reliable medical packaging.
Advanced flexible packaging for the pharmaceutical industry
Pharmaceutical packaging requires strict control of hygiene, sterility and product protection. Medical devices, powders, liquids and diagnostic components must be protected from moisture, contamination and mechanical damage while ensuring precise dosing and tamper evidence. Packaging systems must also operate with high accuracy and repeatability within regulated production environments.
PFM packaging technologies address these requirements through high integrity sealing systems, vision assisted automation and compatibility with medical grade barrier materials. Integrated robotic handling and controlled packaging processes ensure product safety, traceability and consistent packaging quality across a wide range of pharmaceutical applications.
High Integrity Hermetic Sealing
Advanced sealing technologies ensure airtight and tamper evident packages that protect pharmaceutical products from moisture, air and external contamination.
Vision Assisted Quality Control Systems
Integrated vision systems and robotic solutions monitor product positioning and package integrity during production, improving accuracy and reducing rejects.
Clean and Hygienic Machine Design
PFM machines are suitable for controlled environments, with accessible structures that support cleaning procedures and compliance with pharmaceutical hygiene standards.
Precision Dosing and Handling
Integrated dosing systems and automated feeders ensure accurate filling and controlled handling of powders, medical components and delicate devices.
High Barrier Flexible Packaging Compatibility
Machines process medical grade laminates that protect products from light, oxygen and humidity, helping maintain stability and product efficacy.
Flexible Packaging Formats for Pharma Applications
PFM solutions produce pillow packs and stand up pouches suitable for medical devices, diagnostic products, supplements and sterile components.
