Foil

Our pharmaceutical-grade blister aluminium foil is engineered for primary packaging of tablets and capsules. Hard-tempered to H18 specification, it delivers consistent mechanical properties for high-speed blister lines. The heat-seal lacquer coating ensures hermetic sealing, while the zero pin-hole guarantee at 20 μm provides complete barrier protection against moisture, light, oxygen, and micro-organisms.
