Complete Package from CSMA

CSMA is leading the way in packaging formulation for the pharmaceutical industry thanks to its innovative approach to problem solving.

Using state-of-the-art technology, the team at CSMA are able to identify potential contaminants, material incompatibilities or manufacturing process failures in pharmaceutical packaging – all of which can seriously affect end drug performance.

Shaun Bainbridge, sales and marketing manager at CSMA, commented: “Pharmaceutical packaging, like food packaging, has a requirement for both absolute cleanliness and, in many instances, functionality e.g. providing an airtight seal or restricting potential light degradation to contents. Any problems not only require quick detection, they require fast and accurate solutions.

“Surface analysis has a particularly valuable role to play here as issues are most likely to occur due to interactions taking place between the drug surface and inner packaging barrier. The specificity of this ‘problem area’ means that traditional bulk tests are unsuitable and could miss the potential route causes of ongoing production issues.”

From delamination and disbondments to packaging component migration, contaminants and printability problems, by applying world leading technology and expertise CSMA can both identify potential causes and provide data to produce cost saving solutions.
