Maximum patient safety and the demand for environmentally friendly, recyclable solutions are putting pressure on the pharmaceutical industry. In this article, we take a look at PLA – a bio-based polymer – and its suitability as a future-proof material solution for drug delivery devices.
Solvent bonding allows thermoplastics to be bonded permanently without any heat source and without any adhesive remaining. In this short and more technical article, we look at how it works, suitable solvents and the advantages of this technique.
Medical devices account for almost a quarter of a hospital’s greenhouse gas emissions. How can we make them more sustainable?
Verpackungen für pharmazeutische Produkte, wie Tablettenblister, Pillendosen & Flaschen stehen vor einer neuen Herausforderung: Neben dem Schutz ihres Inhaltes, ist Nachhaltigkeit von zunehmender Bedeutung. Wie das gelingt, welche Regulatorik zu beachten ist und was zwei Branchenexperten zur Zukunft der Pharmaverpackung sagen, liest Du in diesem Artikel.
Plastics are an indispensable part of the modern world. At the same time, we face the challenge of minimizing their ecological footprint and finding innovative solutions for the future. In this article, we look at the environmental impact, critical ingredients and the possibility of a climate-neutral circular economy based on renewable resources.
In this article, we look at how to generate value streams from hospital waste and recycle it into the production of new medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging. In short: how the circular economy succeeds in healthcare.
