Sustainable Innovations Around Tamper Proofing

As sustainability becomes an ever-present item on board meeting agendas, we notice the emergence of many new eco-friendly security solution developments, including sustainable closure seals that provide tamper evidence.

This article describes a few developments in this domain.

Schreiner sustainable closure seals

Schreiner MediPharm unveiled its sustainable closure seals for pharmaceutical packaging at the recent Pharmapack in Paris, on January 24-25. Aligning with the EU Falsified Medicines Directive and the planned EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), the seal comprises sustainable film material with a recyclate content of up to 90% – far outpacing PPWR's target of 65% post-consumer recycled content by 2040.

According to the Schreiner MediPharm website, switching from conventional to sustainable upper materials made of recyclates reduces carbon dioxide emissions by around 28% on the film level, while a product carbon footprint analysis indicates an emission reduction of up to 35%.
