TekniPlex Healthcare will emphasize two recent EU-based capacity and capabilities expansions at Pharmapack Europe , January 22-23 in Paris.
At Stand E97 , the company will highlight its efforts to meet growing demand for sophisticated vials, bellow bottles and cleanroom-produced multilayer blown films, and also showcase products from its existing portfolio of healthcare packaging solutions.
At its facility in Modena, Italy, TekniPlex Healthcare has added substantial injection blow molding capacity for multidose vial packaging, which supports a variety of pharmaceutical liquid applications – including the growing ophthalmic market.
Standard bottles range from 5-30 ml, including a 10 ml squeezable container designed specifically for Aptar Pharma's Ophthalmic Squeeze Dispenser (OSD) technology platform, which serves preservative-free multidose formulations in eyecare. The bottles are manufactured in ISO 8 cleanrooms.
Meanwhile, TekniPlex Healthcare's vertical bellow bottles are utilized for surgical powders and other applications, often in wound management. The bottles are available in 3ml or 9ml volumes, and their injection molded cannulas ensure no burrs, flashes or sharp edges for safer dispensing. Tamper-evident cannula caps further enhance safety while eliminating the need for secondary packaging, and customization options include silk screening and color variations.
Elsewhere in Europe, TekniPlex Healthcare is further expanding its cleanroom environment production of multilayer blown film and cleanroom bags at its Puurs, Belgium facility. Building upon a services introduction launched in early 2024, TekniPlex Healthcare is now offering co-extruded blown films and bags with up to five layers, with a particular focus on PE-EVOH-PE constructions providing exemplary oxygen barrier properties.
For TekniPlex Healthcare, the blown film capabilities upgrade reflects a market shift away from conventional food-grade materials toward higher-quality grade pharmaceutical resins. These high-leverage materials are then used for cleanroom-produced films and bags manufactured in accordance with GMP guidelines. Notably, the company's existing customer set is helping drive demand in this niche, specifically through requests for higher barrier solutions requiring multi-layer protective properties.
Also at Pharmapack Europe, TekniPlex Healthcare will showcase its range of more sustainable blister packaging solutions, all suitable for running on standard blister packaging machines. Most recently, the company introduced a pharma-grade blister film with 30% post-consumer recycled content (PCR) on a mass balance basis.
The solution incorporates partner company Alpek Polyester's Octal rDPET™ ??Sheet technology and, when combined with TekniPlex's Teknilid® Push polyester lidding, yields a blister package recyclable wherever the polyester stream exists.
