Ampoule Serialization: A Crucial Step in Pharmaceutical Packaging
Ampoule Serialization is a critical aspect of pharmaceutical packaging, as ampoules are an essential format widely used for storing liquid medications, vaccines, and biological substances. Proper labelling of ampoules ensures regulatory compliance, enhances traceability, and prevents medication errors. As pharmaceutical markets expand and regulatory requirements become stricter, the demand for advanced Ampoule Serialization solutions continues to rise.
Challenges in Ampoule Serialization
Labelling ampoules presents unique challenges due to their small, cylindrical shape and the need for precise placement. Some of the primary challenges include:
- Regulatory Compliance: Meeting strict international pharmaceutical regulations such as EU-FMD, US DSCSA for serialization and traceability.
- Durability: Ensuring labels remain intact despite exposure to temperature fluctuations, moisture, and handling.
- Legibility: Maintaining barcode and text clarity for seamless scanning during distribution and administration.
- High-Speed Production: Ensuring the ability to apply labels quickly and accurately to keep up with mass production lines.
