New AdCapDesiccant Capsules from Sanner
The highest patient safety and 360 degree moisture protection for pharmaceuticals and food supplements.
The new AdCapproduct family consists of drop-in desiccant capsules for the protection of moisture-sensitive products. They are best suited for solid pharmaceuticals such as tablets and capsules, as well as food supplements. AdCapis the consistent further development of the predecessor “360° Capsule” from Sanner. “During our strategic realignment, we placed an even stronger focus on one of our core competencies – the product category Pharma Desiccant Packaging. This already brought forth the new AdPackdesiccant pillow packs. Now we have enhanced the development of our desiccant capsules and established the AdCapproduct family,” explains Sanner CEO Holger Frank.
AdCapis available in three different sizes: apart from the proven one gram version, Sanner now also offers the desiccant capsules with fillings of two and 2.5 grams. The choice of filling materials has also been extended: AdCapis available with silica gel, molecular sieve and blends. AdCapcombines the advantages of conventional capsules and canisters. The high squeeze stability prevents desiccants from leaking, even under high pressure. At the same time, AdCapoffers effective all-round moisture protection.
The desiccant capsules not only adsorb moisture through a cardboard disc on the top, but also through a unique grid structure on the side of the capsule. even when the capsule is lying on the cardboard side, this ensures moisture adsorption without losing effectiveness after filling within the container – regardless of the capsule’s position inside the package. Moreover, the distinct design of AdCapoffers the highest patient safety, as its unique grid structure eliminates potential confusion with capsules or tablets, and prevents accidental ingestion. Additionally, the good printing quality increases the readability of the safety instructions.
AdCapwas presented for the first time at CPhI Worldwide in Paris in October 2014. Visitors to CPhI India will have the possibility to see the desiccant capsules at Stand V87, Bombay Convention and Exhibition Centre, from 2 to 4 December 2014.
