RIGID PVC FILMS, PVC / PVDC FILMS
PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and PVDC (Polyvinyldine Chloride) are used in pharmaceuticals as primary packaging materials, which protect pharmaceutical product against oxygen and odour, moisture, water vapour transmission, contamination and bacteria. These properties make PVC / PVDC the material of choice for blister packaging.
PVC Films are use to Prevent unnecessary wastage as it preserves the food and drugs, Work as outstanding blister packaging solution, Superb gloss adds up more clarity, Inhibits microbial growth during manufacture, distribution and displays.
