Wholesale Medicine Packing Aluminum Foil

The wholesale medicine foil is the main product of aluminum for packaging. Aluminum for packaging has good oxidation resistance. A dense oxide film will be formed on the surface of the aluminum foil, which can effectively prevent contact with oxygen and has good corrosion resistance, thus ensuring the integrity of the medicine. Therefore, aluminum foil is currently a commonly used medical packaging material.

Another advantage of using aluminum foil for drug packaging is that the drug particles are packaged independently. Opening one does not affect other drugs, which ensures the efficacy of the drug. Medicinal aluminum foil can also be widely used in the packaging of various pharmaceutical capsules, tablets, and granules after compounding, printing, and gluing.

There are two types of medicine packaging aluminum foils currently on the market, mainly 8011 and 8021 aluminum foil. Aluminum foils used for pharmaceutical packaging usually include the following types: PTP aluminum foil, aluminum blister foil, aluminum-plastic composite materials, and pharmaceutical aluminum bottle caps.

PTP aluminum foil: It is often used to the packaging of capsules, mainly made of 8011-H18 or 8011-O aluminum foil. Thickness ranges from 0.016 to 0.04 mm.

Aluminum blister foil: It is also known as cold formed pharmaceutical foil. It is mainly made of 8021-O aluminum foil and is used for high-end and tightly sealed moisture-proof and light-shielding drug packaging. Thickness is 0.04-0.065mm.

Aluminum-plastic aluminum: It refers to adding a layer of cold-pressed aluminum foil on the outside of thermoformed plastic blister and PTP aluminum foil. This is the most high-end packaging aluminum foil in pharmaceutical packaging. 8021-O aluminum foil and 8079-O aluminum foil are two common choices.

Aluminum foil for pharmaceutical bottle caps: It is mainly made of 8011 aluminum with H14 and H16 temper. It is widely used for bottled liquids such as oral liquids used in medicine, antibiotics and infusions.

Aluminum foil for pharmaceutical packaging currently accounts for about 25% of pharmaceutical packaging materials, of which aluminum blister foil only accounts for 20% of total pharmaceutical packaging, while in developed countries it has reached 80%. This also shows that the development potential of medicinal aluminum foil is relatively large. Welcome to leave message below to inquire what you need.
