Mounting financial pressures top a list of issues driving the pharmaceutical, biologic, and medical device sectors. In an exclusive interview, Freedonia senior healthcare consultant Bill Martineau discusses where packaging fits into these issues. Even before the recent global financial turmoil, pharmaceutical, biologic, and medical device manufacturers faced considerable economic pressures. Corporate efforts to control costs continue to trickle down to the packaging function, with packaging line efficiencies more closely scrutinized, and material decisions made based on performance and economics.

Air displacement web guide on hf/f/s machine improves medical kit packaging
Cardinal Health's Mannford, OK facility needed guidance to get its medical procedural kit packaging back on track-literally. The film used to seal preformed trays of medical instruments often shifted out of alignment with the company's horizontal form/fill/seal machine, resulting in wasted product and time spent rethreading the film. The air displacement web guide from Coast Controls shown here now keeps film from shifting to one side.

Pharmaceutical/medical device packaging helping Ireland's economy
After enjoying years of prosperity, Ireland has been hit by challenging economic times that have touched many countries around the globe. A medical device sub-contract manufacturing/packaging company's managing director believes "things are likely to get worse before they get better" in Ireland. The good news: Through government-based groups such as Enterprise Ireland, there is a commitment to financial investments in the life sciences sector, as well as to student education, and workforce development, all of which bodes well for the future. Today, pharmaceutical and medical device businesses provide considerable employment and generate revenues in Ireland. That's the take from Healthcare Packaging's visit to Ireland.
