Tailor-made Flexible Packaging Materials for the Pharmaceutical Industry

The facility in the city of Slagelse, Denmark, is certified to the required ISO standards, and meets standard GMP requirements. Danapak has its own R&D function with own pilot plant and laboratory, which allows for fast turnaround of novelties.

The inroad to the pharmaceutical industry started with supplies of high barrier laminates to the transdermal therapeutic industry, which has later been extended with laminates to e.g. the wound and dressing industry. High barrier child resistant lidding materials sealing against all common materials such as e.g. PVC/PVDC, PET and PP has been introduced as well, and lately anti-counterfeit solutions using holographic effects have been introduced. 

Danapak is a market leader in high barrier laminates to the transdermal industry offering a broad standard range of laminates. The range includes child resistant options. A specialty is the supply of Barex contained laminates for products with very high demands to inertness and chemical resistance. With the announced discontinuity of Barex, Danapak has developed a range of alternative specifications. Through active use of the Hansen Solubility Parameter (HSP) analysis, Danapak is able to offer customers tailor-made packaging solutions, which are particularly suited to individual API’s and excipients. The HSP analysis calculates which specific contact (sealing)layer is the most inert to withstand the individual API’s and excipients contained in the product to be packed.

Laminates for the wound/dressing industry consist of a range of triplex laminates, e.g. OPP/Alu/Polymers offering superior product protection and optimized machinability on the packaging lines.
