Induction Cap Sealing in the Pharmaceutical & Healthcare Industry Sealing Billions of Containers Worldwide
Why Induction Seal Pharma & Healthcare Products
Tamper evidence, counterfeit protection and extended shelf life are among the reasons companies in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries rely on induction cap sealing.
UK & European regulations, including the Falsified Medicines Directive (FMD) and Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), state that prescription medications and certain over-the-counter drugs must tamper-resistant packaging.
One of the easiest and most cost-efficient ways to achieve tamper evidence is through an induction seal.
Certain types of foil seals cannot be removed without leaving evidence on the lip of the container – this alerts the consumer that someone has tampered with the product.
Induction heat sealing is also being used to tackle the growing issue of counterfeit medicines; it is estimated that around 1 million people die every year from ingesting fake drugs. Using technology such as induction sealing can prevent counterfeiters from imitating your product and damaging your brand’s reputation.
A further benefit of induction cap sealing is protecting medicines and health supplements from moisture and germs – therefore extending the shelf life.
