Pet owners have become increasingly dependent on medications to keep their pets healthy. As a result, veterinary medicine packaging must offer superior freshness and safety while still appealing to customers.

Pharmpac-NZ PET packaging is ideal for these products, whether it’s a liquid pet supplement or pill. Not only does this increase product and patient safety, but it also facilitates easier dispensing and inventory management processes.

Safety

PET packaging for medicines is an increasingly important consideration among many consumers, as the bottles are shatter-proof, lightweight, and can withstand temperature changes. Furthermore, these bottles are biocompatible and non-carcinogenic – making them suitable for storing and transporting medications safely.

The demand for Pharmpac-NZ PET packaging in the pharmaceutical industry has recently seen a meteoric rise. Additionally, the increasing number of people taking medicine has fuelled market expansion. Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has further fuelled medicine sales worldwide, which is expected to propel market development in the future additionally.

PET packaging is an environmentally friendly material that can be recycled, reducing waste production. Therefore, it has more environmental advantages than other plastic types like polypropylene, Ethylhexyl phthalate and high-density polyethylene.

PET plastic is more sustainable than other types of plastic due to its lack of release of hazardous chemicals into the environment, lack of leaching toxins into the air, and absence of heavy metals.

Another advantage of PET containers is their ease of recycling. After being washed, these chemical breakdowns take place in raw materials that can be utilised in other items – this process is known as a thermochemical conversion, and it’s widespread within the industry.

PET containers are also odourless, tasteless and highly durable. In addition, they can withstand temperatures ranging from -148 to 176 degrees Fahrenheit – making them perfect for pharmaceutical products.

The global PET packaging market is forecast to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8% between 2020 and 2030. Market expansion is anticipated in the food & beverage, pharmaceutical, personal care, and cosmetic industries.

Durability

PET is a lightweight plastic from the polyester family used in pharmaceutical packaging. It is safe and non-toxic, does not release toxins into the atmosphere and has no taste. PET has many advantages over glass, which is expensive, fragile, heavy and inflexible, compared to PET’s durability and fluid flow resistance which can withstand temperatures ranging from -148 to 176 degrees Fahrenheit.

Recyclability

Pharmpac-NZ PET packaging is one of the world’s most recycled plastics. In America alone, 1.5 billion pounds of used PET bottles and containers are recovered annually; virtually all municipal recycling programs accept it.

The material used for packaging products such as food, drink, pharmaceutical and household items. It provides an effective barrier to water and gas vapours, making it the ideal option for liquid transportation.

Recycling PET bottles and containers are an easy and eco-friendly way to protect the environment. When properly disposed of, PET can be transformed into a variety of products such as new bottles and containers, carpets, fiberfill for soft furnishings like sleeping bags, protective packaging material and industrial strapping.

Recyclable PET can also go through advanced recycling, which uses chemical processes to break down the molecules holding it together and turn them into plastic parts. As a result, the recycled material can be recycled multiple times, serving as an environmentally friendly alternative to virgin raw materials in many industries.

Once PET flakes have been classified into different grades, they are ground with lids and rings and cleaned to remove glue, paper and other debris. Finally, high-temperature decontamination removes the material’s post-consumer substances or flavours.

Flexibility

PET has many advantages over glass, such as being mouldable into almost any shape or size and its ease of cleaning and disinfection – essential for pharmaceutical companies focusing on customer satisfaction. Aside from its many functions, PET also allows manufacturers to create unique packaging options. The possibilities are endless, from blister packaging to sachets to custom bottle and label design. PET is often used for liquids and powders, but it also plays a significant role in packaging tablets and capsules in pharmacological applications. With the right packaging design, your product will stand out from competitors while simultaneously meeting customer and financial goals.
