Desiccant canisters
Desiccant canisters are a drop-in style desiccant and sorbent components that help maintain drug stability and prolong shelf life inside healthcare packaging containers. Available with a variety of active materials, canisters offer the added benefit of high-speed insertion on standard packaging equipment. Unlike desiccant packets, canisters do not require a cutting process for automatic insertion […]
HDPE Bottles with CRC Closures
HDPE (high density polyethylene) bottles are an advance in moisture protection and shelf life provided by pharmaceutical packaging. Compliant with US FDA and EU regulations for use in dry pharmaceutical applications, HDPE bottles provide superior moisture protection performance versus conventional alternatives. The protective improvement is a result of a unique design which features high passive […]
IDC® (Integrated Desiccant Closure)
IDC® (Integrated Desiccant Closure) represents the next generation of bottle closure systems with the potential to unify global healthcare packaging standards. IDC is designed for bottles which protect a huge variety of sensitive products that require safeguarding against humidity – these include various pharmaceutical medicines which risk being spoiled by exposure to moisture. IDC® 33 […]
Vials with integrated desiccant
Colorcon has developed two new vials integrating desiccant in the cap or at the bottom of the container. These active and ergonomic packaging solutions are ideal to protect test strips, dietary supplements and probiotics from moisture degradation, and eventually ensure their efficiency. This dedicated range of products is perfectly adapted to the specific needs for […]
ADP® vials
Two new vials are now available that integrate ADP® technology into the walls of the container. These active and ergonomic packaging solutions are ideal to protect test strips, dietary supplements and probiotics from moisture degradation, and eventually ensure their efficiency. These active and ergonomic packaging solutions are ideal to protect test strips, dietary supplements and […]
Desiccant bags
Desiccant Bags are larger sorbents that adsorb moisture to maintain stability of healthcare products, such as pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, APIs, excipients, reagents and other healthcare-related materials. Bags are ideal for pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, diagnostic and medical devices that are susceptible to either chemical or physical degradation due to moisture. Silica gel (silicon dioxide), molecular sieve (synthetic zeolite) […]
Molecular Sieve Desiccant Tablets
Molecular sieve desiccant tablets are made from molecular sieve 4A, known for its adsorption kinetics and effectiveness to absorb moisture at very low relative humidity (< 20% RH). Its compact and uniform shape is well-appreciated and guarantees an ease of use for humidity protection in small spaces. Typical applications include protection of devices or diagnostic […]
ADP® Plate and DRICARD®
Flat desiccants can be ideal for adsorbing excess moisture in some applications when desiccant sachets do not fit or are not appropriate for a given application. Desiccant packets or sachets can be difficult to see or separate from powdered products, such as pre-workout nutrition powders. Flat desiccants can often be easily positioned inside packaging to […]
ADP®- Advanced Desiccant Polymer
ADP® Advanced Desiccant Polymer is an innovative and active desiccant polymer solution that can be used for various moisture sensitive applications like protection of medical devices, diagnostic components or pharmaceuticals. Thanks to our expertise in injection molding, we can directly design, customize and manufacture the appropriate ADP piece, matching with your application and humidity protection […]
Desiccant washers & inserts
Desiccant washers are integrated into pharmaceutical closures by efficiently snapping them into standard threaded caps. Washers can also be independent of the cap allowing for easy removal, as is the case for applications involving suspension drugs that require reconstitution. The desiccant integrated into the closure absorbs any headspace moisture as well as any moisture that […]
