TAMPER EVIDENT BLISTER PACKAGING
A tamper evident package comprises a blister assembly defining at least one cavity, the opening of the at least one cavity being at least partially closed by a membrane. A sleeve housing the blister assembly is provided, the sleeve having a top side and a bottom side, the bottom side having a contact window that is aligned with the cavity. In addition, a package integrity feature is applied to the bottom side and covers the contact window. The package integrity feature is further applied to the membrane covering the cavity through the contact window.
BLISTER-CARD RETAIL AND STORAGE PACKAGING FOR BUTTON CELLS
A retail and storage pack in a blister card form including a carrier, and a plastics molded part with a planar base surface into which a depression has been introduced by thermoforming, wherein the planar base surface of the plastics molded part is fixed on the carrier such that the depression, together with the carrier, forms a closed receptacle for a cylindrical button cell, the receptacle comprises a central space of circular-cylindrical basic shape into which the button cell is inserted, and the receptacle includes a side space configured as a bulge of the central space and is configured such that it cannot be filled by the button cell.
Tear openable catheter assembly
A medical device assembly is disclosed, comprising a medical device, such as a urinary catheter, and preferably having a hydrophilic surface coating, and a package forming a closed compartment around the catheter. The package is formed of at least one sheet of tearable material and comprises a first weld extending along a first side in a first direction of the package and a second weld extending along a second side in a second direction of the package. The first and second directions are different and preferably orthogonal to each other. A tear line is provided in the second weld, and arranged to direct a subsequent tear towards the first weld. Further, the first weld is provided with an inward protrusion, protruding inwardly towards the closed compartment, at a distance from the second weld. A corresponding method of production is also disclosed.
Rigid holding container with breachable perimeter bubble
A rigid holding container has a flexible cover sheet extending over the holding area for sealing the contents. The container has a wide, flat perimeter lip which provides a firm base for the seal between the cover sheet and the container. A breaching bubble is formed in the seal, under the cover and over the perimeter lip. The consumer breaches the bubble by pressing the bubble against the lip between the thumb and forefinger. The pressure compresses the air in the bubble causing the bubble to expand laterally. The expanding bubble breaches along the perimeter of the lip, producing a peel flap of flexible cover material. The consumer pulls the peel flap while holding the rigid container down, to remove the cover sheet.
Child-resistant safety package
A package includes an outer sleeve and a slider for holding a blister pack slidably mounted within the outer sleeve. The outer sleeve has a locking edge. The slider has a locking flap extending in a direction away from the closed end of the outer sleeve for engagement with the wall of the outer sleeve. The flap has a free edge which provides a pair of locking edges for engagement with the locking edge of the outer sleeve wall. The outer sleeve has a release button which may be pressed to deflect the slider flap away from the wall of the outer sleeve and enable the free edge of the slider flap to slide past the locking edge to allow the slider to be withdrawn from the outer sleeve.
Hearing aid battery packaging
A battery package includes a card, a cover, a tray, and batteries. The cover is attached to the card and includes a door and an opening formed in the front of the cover and the peripheral edge of the cover. The door is movable between an open position to provide access to the opening and a closed position. The tray is positioned between the card and the cover and includes multiple receptacles. Each battery is positioned within one of the receptacles. The card includes a recess in the outer edge of the card at a battery removal position. The tray is movable relative to the card and the cover to selectively align one of the receptacles with the opening in the battery removal position. With the door in the open position, the battery in the receptacle in the battery removal position is accessible through the opening.
TEAR OPENABLE CATHETER ASSEMBLY
A medical device assembly is disclosed, comprising a medical device, such as a urinary catheter, and preferably having a hydrophilic surface coating, and a package forming a closed compartment around the catheter. The package is formed of at least one sheet of tearable material and comprises a first weld extending along a first side in a first direction of the package and a second weld extending along a second side in a second direction of the package. The first and second directions are different and preferably orthogonal to each other. A tear line is provided in the second weld, and arranged to direct a subsequent tear towards the first weld. Further, the first weld is provided with an inward protrusion, protruding inwardly towards the closed compartment, at a distance from the second weld. A corresponding method of production is also disclosed.
Blister sheet and blister packaging machine
A blister sheet includes a container film including pockets receiving a content, and a cover film mounted to the container film to close the pockets. The container and the cover film are made of synthetic resins. The cover film is thinner than the container film. One pair of cuts formed for each pocket passes through the container and the cover film and extends to the pocket such that each pocket is placed between the cuts. The container and the cover film are broken from the one pair of cuts toward the pocket. A cutting slit or perforation is formed in the container film to allow for separation of the blister sheet into sheet pieces. The cutting slit or perforation is extended to intersect with the cut and a portion of the cutting slit or perforation that intersects with the cut passes through the container and the cover film.
Tear openable catheter assembly
A medical device assembly is disclosed, comprising a medical device, such as a urinary catheter, and preferably having a hydrophilic surface coating, and a package forming a closed compartment around the catheter. The package is formed of at least one sheet of tearable material and comprises a first weld extending along a first side in a first direction of the package and a second weld extending along a second side in a second direction of the package. The first and second directions are different and preferably orthogonal to each other. A tear line is provided in the second weld, and arranged to direct a subsequent tear towards the first weld. Further, the first weld is provided with an inward protrusion, protruding inwardly towards the closed compartment, at a distance from the second weld. A corresponding method of production is also disclosed.
SUSTAINABLE BLISTER PACKAGING
A blister packaging comprises a thermoformed web (30) with cavities (10) for a product formed therein, comprising at least two co-extruded layers: a main layer (34) comprising HDPE and up to 2% of a first additive, and a sealing layer (36) comprising HDPE and at most 50% of LLDPE, and a flat lid (20), comprising at least three co-extruded layers: an outer HDPE layer (22) containing up to 5% of a second additive, an intermediate HDPE layer (24) comprising a third additive suitable to decrease elongation at break, and an inner sealing layer (26), wherein the thermoformed web (30) and the flat lid (20) are heat-sealed together. The invention further relates to a packaged pharmaceutical or nutritional product comprising a comprising such a blister packaging, and a pharmaceutical or nutritional product (40) in solid form contained in the cavities. It further relates to a method for producing such a product.
