Containers for solid product

Containers for solid product

Series of containers for slid product having highly moisture proof

Due to both our strict deliberation of materials especially for safety and our longtime accumulated knowhows on our technologies, we accomplished to make highly airtight containers. In accordance with GMP regulations, our unique molding systems made it possible to manufacture the clean and homogenous containers classified as "Containers for Solid Drug".

Firstly launched in Japan, as for "Sugarcane origin" made primary packaging for pharmaceutical use

Taisei Kako Co., Ltd has been developing containers with the aim of reducing CO2 emissions during disposal and incineration of pharmaceutical containers, and has been able to propose pharmaceutical containers using polyethylene derived from sugarcane.
Until now, biomass plastics had limited on the properties such as heat resistance, water vapor / oxygen permeability, fragility, and other functions, the reason of this made it difficult to adopt them for the pharamaeutical containers. The new biomass PE container proposed here has almost the same functions and physical properties of the convetional petrochemical resins.
We intend to contribute to the creation of a sustainable society in the pharmaceutical industry with this new container.

Obtained biomass plamarks

Biomass Plamarks are given to products using Biomass Plus, such as plant origin plastics, by JBPA

What is sugarcane origin polyethylene?

Petroleum-oigin polyethylene generates CO2 when it is discarded and incinerated, which increases the concentration of CO2 in the air and causes global warming when CO2 is generated by burning the cane-derived polyethylene. However, it is not considered to be an increase of carbon dioxide gas in the air, because the carbon was originally present in the air and absorbed into the body by plants. Also, if there is solar energy or water, it is rengenerated in every year. From these two points, biomass is said to be a sustainable energy resource, and this peoperty is referred to as "carbon neutral".
It is said that CO2 emissions throughout the entire life cycle, including the production of sugarcane-origin polyethylene is about 70% less than that of petroleum-origin polyethylene.

Round-shape containers for solid product by "Injection blow molding"
Cap with TE function.

【Advantages】
  • Due to delaying the timing between the "cap-opening" and the "belt-cutting", you can feel the completion of the "opening" of the cap for the first time.
  • Once the belt is cut and downed below, the user can easily find that the bottle was already opened.
  • Since the belt-cutting portion does not come off from the ring of the bottle, it does not interfere with taking the tablets.
  • Once the "belt" portion is cut and downed, no need for extra force except the "Tightening Torque". This will make the control easier.
  • The molding gasket and the moisture proof tank are common-use of TIB bottles, and keep the high airtightness.

Buffer materials of containers for solid product

Dealing with many primary packages for pharmaceutical products, we are also challenging on the development of buffer materials that are enclosed in the containers to protect the product.

Advantages of CPMB

  • Conforming to Article 370 "Notification of Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare"

A buffer material in the form of rolled-up elastic polyethylene net obtained by extrusion molding.
Put the net in the inner space of the bottle, it protects the drug from vibration and shock during the processes such as transportation and etc.

  • CPMB

  • CPMB
【Advantages】
  • Due to having its high flexibility, CPMB is adjustable to fit various kinds of head spaces of the bottles.
  • Put it in the inner space of the bottle, it protects the drug from vibration and shock during the transportation.
  • Due to having its "pull-up portion" of the CPMP, this makes easier to take it out from the bottle without "rolli-up the tablets".
