August Faller: Tamper-Evident Label for Pharma Products

The TEAM-Label booklet label combines tamper-protection and drug information.

On February 9, 2019, new rules in the EU go into effect requiring a unique identifier and tamper-evident packaging (Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/161, supplementing the EU Falsified Medicines Directive).

This new EU regulation means that it will no longer be possible to read the package leaflet for prescription-only medicines without destroying the seal and invalidating the anti-tamper protection. To address this, August Faller GmbH & Co. KG has developed the TEAM-Label, which combines a seal with a multi-page adhesive label.

Anti-tamper protection is provided by a special self-adhesive strip, which is perforated and glued over the carton’s tuck flap. The laminate is slit using a high-precision two-layer die cut. This is designed so that the booklet can be easily opened using the tab provided without damaging the anti-tamper device. For eco-conscious businesses, Faller can also manufacture a laminate-free, paper-only version of the TEAM-Label. This allows the whole pack to be recycled as paper.
