SABIC presented the SABIC® PCG healthcare portfolio at Pharmapack 2010
February 9, 2010
Today’s healthcare industry is increasingly moving towards home based monitoring and treatment. This trend is challenging the healthcare packaging industry to develop products which measure up to the highest healthcare standards and enable packaging design which is user-friendly though childproof. Responding to this shift SABIC® PCG offers converters tailored healthcare solutions that allow smart packaging without the risk of leakage and a safe disposal of healthcare products.
SABIC® PCG consists of a wide range of Polyethylene (PE) and Polypropylene (PP) solutions for Blow Fill Seal, Blow Molding and Injection Molding technologies. "SABIC® PCG supports a broad spectrum of healthcare applications, varying from containers, bottles, closures and bags to ampoules and connectors" explains Peter Tackx, Business Development Manager Healthcare. The SABIC® PCG grades have a Drug Master File (DMF) number and comply with the relevant monographs of the European Pharmacopoeia (EP) and the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP VI).
The importance of a consistent product supply is reflected in SABIC’s "no change" policy and "notification of change". "We fully understand the challenges of the healthcare industry" says Tackx. "SABIC® PCG is your material of choice when it comes to key differentiators such as stability, reliability, traceability, consistency and continuity." The current developments within the healthcare industry, demand a strong and responsive partner. "We are able to ensure this through our broad network of sales offices and manufacturing sites, providing you with local expertise and a reliable supply of our SABIC® PCG product range." explains Tackx.
