Dear Customers,

The European Aluminium Foil Association (EAFA) has awarded Amcor’s Frangible Formpack® Blister an Alufoil Trophy for Technical Innovation

The Frangible Formpack® Blister is a multi-chamber pharmaceutical blister that enables moisture-sensitive active ingredients such as drugs, vaccines or diagnostic reactants to be contained in the same package safely, prior to being mixed and dispensed.

One chamber can be filled with a dry powder incorporating the active ingredient, the other one with a liquid. Thanks to the peelable frangible seal which opens the channel, both components are mixed by pushing on the cavities.

The new multi-chamber blister enhances drug stability and simplifies the supply chain by eliminating the necessity for cool storage and glass containers. It can also be used for point-of-care diagnostic testing in situations where a complex laboratory environment cannot be set up.

Best regards,

KAA TIMEX LR Representation of Amcor in Bulgaria
