PET Sheets: Smart Solutions for Evolving Pharma Needs

Pharmaceutical packaging needs are changing with time, demanding better safety, quality, and reliability. PET sheets are designed to meet these needs with smart, practical solutions. How? Let’s read!

Regulatory Compliance & Safety

One of the most important requirements in pharmaceutical packaging is regulatory compliance. Our pet polyethylene terephthalate sheets are manufactured using pharma-grade raw materials that comply with FDA and EU regulations for direct and indirect contact with pharmaceutical products. These sheets are free from harmful additives, ensuring the packaging does not react with or leach into the contents.

  • Barrier Properties

Pharmaceutical products are sensitive to environmental factors such as moisture, oxygen, and UV light. Our polyethylene terephthalate sheets offer excellent barrier resistance against these elements, making them suitable for blister packaging, unit dose packaging, and secondary containers.

  • Dimensional Stability & Thermoformability

PET sheets exhibit excellent dimensional stability during thermoforming, allowing pharmaceutical converters to maintain consistent cavity depths, sharp corners, and clean finishes.

  • Tamper-Evident Packaging

PET sheets can be engineered to support tamper-evident designs and sealable blister packs that make unauthorized access immediately visible. Additionally, PET's clarity allows for visual inspection of tablets and capsules, which is crucial for safety verification.

  • Printability for Branding & Traceability

Counterfeit prevention, branding, and patient communication all rely on packaging that supports high-resolution printing. Our PET sheets feature a print-receptive surface that enables clear, smudge-free printing through various printing processes.

Therefore, sharper barcodes and QR codes for authentication and tracking, crisp graphics and text for dosage instructions and branding, and compatibility with anti-counterfeit elements such as holograms, micro text, and RFID labels are possible with this material.

  • Customization & Conversion Support

Every pharmaceutical client has unique requirements in terms of pack sizes, shapes, thicknesses, and finishing options. Our PET sheets are customizable as per the requirement.

  • Eco-Friendly

Sustainability has been a pain point for pharmaceutical companies, especially those with global operations. Our polyethylene terephthalate sheets are recyclable and can be incorporated into circular economy models. This aligns with pharmaceutical brand goals for ESG compliance and reduced environmental impact.

The pharmaceutical industry demands packaging solutions that deliver performance, compliance, safety, and sustainability. Our PET sheets are engineered with all these priorities in mind.
