Containment solutions for solids

Protect employees and production areas, prevent cross-contamination: Containment in the pharmaceutical industry ranges from simple extraction solutions to closed systems, from safe discharge to precise process control to dispensing areas designed according to hygienic design criteria. Containment solutions from Körber meet every customer requirement, whether controlled ventilation or complete isolation of corresponding production areas. Our flexible system design enables optimal adaptation even to difficult structural conditions as well as packaging under defined climatic conditions with preset temperature and humidity.

Hygienic design

The design of the dosing area ensures residue-free cleaning

Safety

The automatic measurement cycle for airtightness monitoring is launched at every product change

Process control

Time-to-market

Inline printing enables a fast market presence, no preprinted materials are needed, warehouse inventory and costs decline

Greater OEE despite smaller batch sizes

From expiring patents for blockbuster products to decreasing batch sizes for original products and generic drugs, the effects of structural transformation on the packaging of pharmaceutical products are impossible to ignore. However, small batch sizes have a big impact on the productivity and OEE (overall equipment effectiveness) for manufacturers. That’s why new processes have to be installed in order to boost the performance of existing equipment, particularly for small batch solutions. At Körber, we combine these processes for the packaging of small batch sizes under the term “Late Stage Customization (LSC®).”

The LCS® concept takes effect at site level and offers the possibility of cleverly bundling small packaging batches. Crucial to this is Körber's established BIB-BOB module - a tool that allows standardized, unprinted or partially printed blisters to be collected for later customer-specific packaging. This process alone can significantly increase overall line efficiency.

Development and production from a single source

As packaging experts, we at Körber know that a packaging solution can only be successful if all areas are closely interlinked as early as the development phase. That’s why we support you in the design of your product packaging with all of our expertise.

This includes dosing tests as well as the optimal design of blister formats and the production of sample packaging. In this process, we incorporate our experience with mechanical engineering as well as the results of dosing tests, which we can conduct for you in one of our state-of-the-art laboratories. As a result, the jointly developed product packaging has a high machinability, enables higher dosing accuracy, and thus guarantees smooth production.
