PILL PROTECT

Pill protect's solutions use a specially perforated paper which covers the usual foil lidding on standard blister packs. This makes the surface harder to break, increasing the difficulty for children to access the medication whilst still being weak enough to allow access by senior citizens.

All of our solutions are fully compliant with BS8404 and EN14375 and therefore with UK and European legislative requirements.

THE BENEFITS

• We are fully compliant with BS 8404 and EN14375 and therefore with the UK and European legislative requirements.
• Our products provide a smooth printable surface, allowing branding to be carried through from box to blister.
• Our products do not alter the primary packaging materials and consequently only a type 1 license upgrade is required, helping to minimise costs.
• The products have been designed to run on existing packaging lines with minimal loss of production times.

Each product is given an F= rating, recording the number of units that were accessed by children during testing (whilst still allowing 90% of seniors to access the drugs). The lower the F= rating, the higher the level of resistance. An F=8 rating is the minimum rating required for compliance in the UK and the rest of Europe, whilst an F=3 rating is more suitable for the US market, where a more toxic drug is required to have a lower rating.
