The blister pack for medicinal products comprises a bottom film in which blister pockets are formed, which are surrounded by webs of the bottom film. The blister pockets comprise a two-level shape with a first recess and second recess situated lower down. A lidding film is sealed to the webs of the bottom film and to a strip of active material, which is arranged in each blister pocket. The medicinal product is accommodated in the second recess, and the strip of active material is accommodated in the first recess. The first recess comprises, in a bottom area thereof, a peripheral rib, which extends around the second recess, or at least two projecting knobs, which are arranged next to the second recess, wherein the strip of active material rests on the rib or on the knobs.

The invention relates to a multi-pack container which defines a series of containers (11) formed in a plastic sheet (L) that comprises at least a layer of PET (polyethylene terephthalate), and in which said containers (11) are joined by bridges (12), provided with a pre-cut upper line (13) and a pre-cut lower line (14) for breaking the bridge (12). The pre-cut upper line (13) and a pre-cut lower line (14) are arranged parallel to one another, laterally separated in a horizontal direction and vertically separated to prevent heating by compression and a variation of the properties of the PET layer, allowing for clean breakage of the bridge by rotating the containers with respect to said pre-cut upper and lower lines. The invention also comprises a machine for manufacturing the multi-pack container.

A press-through packaging material is disclosed including, in sequence, a substrate, an opaque underlayer laminated on at least a part of the surface of the substrate, and a printing layer that contains a colored metal pigment, and that is formed on at least a part of the surface of the opaque underlayer. The colored metal pigment includes a metal pigment, an amorphous silicon oxide film layer formed on the surface of the metal pigment, and metal particles supported on a part of or on the entire surface of the amorphous silicon oxide film layer, the opaque underlayer having a mass per unit area of 0.5 g/m.sup.2 or more and 3.0 g/m.sup.2 or less, and the printing layer having a mass per unit area of 1.0 g/m.sup.2 or more and 3.5 g/m.sup.2 or less.

A cartridge includes a case housing a smartphone, a housing configured to hold a medication blister pack, and a detection method to record the blister pack being put in and out of the housing.

A multi-layer product as a seal includes a cover layer having an adhesive layer and a backing layer with a release layer. The cover layer has a first part including one or more releasable portions, each having an associated patch. The backing layer has a pre-formed line of separation that extends across the seal from the first edge to the second edge and separates the backing layer into a first part and a second part. The second part of the backing layer includes at least one removable portion at an edge thereof. Each removable portion is defined by one or more pre-formed lines of separation. The cover layer has a second part including at least one flap portion each of which is substantially coincident with a respective one of the removable portions and defined by one or more pre-formed lines of separation in the second part of the cover layer.

A blister package lid includes a substrate, a layer of adhesive, and a continuous pattern of electrically conductive wire disposed directly on the adhesive layer. The continuous pattern of wire has a plurality of detector segments, and the plurality of detector segments have respective destructible portions of wire at locations on the substrate corresponding to cavities of a blister sheet. Each detector segment has an outer connector portion and an inner connector portion. The outer connector portion and the inner connector portion of each detector segment are adjacent to one another, and pairs of successive first and second detector segments of the plurality of detector segments are connected by an arced segment between the inner connector portion of the first detector segment and the outer connector portion of the second detector segment.

A pharmaceutical dosage system includes a blister pack and a plurality of dosage forms contained by the blister pack. The dosage forms are to be consumed in an up-titration process. Only one single dosage form of the plurality of dosage forms is consumed on a given day throughout the up-titration process whereby dosages increase over the course of a multi-day period of time.

Recyclable films having at least a first layer containing a high-density polyethylene, a second layer containing a high-density polyethlene and a hydrocarbon resin, and a third layer containing a high-density polyethylene may be used for thermoforming packaging components. The film structure is advantageous as it can be more easily thermoformed than traditional high-density poly-ethylene films and can maintain the shape taken during thermoforming, exhibiting minimal warping or shrinking.

The film structure has a first exterior layer having a high-density polyethylene and an inorganic particle, a second exterior layer having a polyethylene-based material for sealing, and an interior layer having a high-density polyethylene, a nucleating agent and a hydrocarbon resin. The film may be use as a heat-sealable lid component for packaging and offers high moisture barrier, good heat resistance, and push-through and/or child-resistance performance while maintaining an overall composition acceptable for recycling.
