Every treatment
has its shape.

Because every therapy has its story. That is why our packaging solutions range from the more traditional systems to smart devices, to create a user experience that fits with people and their lives.

Innovation Hub: the relationships that shape innovation

Not a lab behind closed doors, but a hub. This is where we work on the future of pharmaceutical packaging.

In our Innovation Hub, we collaborate with start-ups, universities, research centres, pharmaceutical companies, technology companies and consultants to conceive and produce solutions capable of responding to future transformations in healthcare.

Together, we imagine the evolutions that will take place, explore new scenarios and open up possibilities. Because innovation, when it is shared, can really make a difference.

Innovation Hub

As an industry leader in the sustainable transition, we combine established papermaking expertise with the intention to offer viable alternatives to fossil-based solutions in the healthcare packaging sector. By applying a model based on eco-design and strategic partnerships, we develop renewable and certified paper and cardboard solutions, that are scientifically validated through life cycle assessments (LCAs) and elevate the value of a natural, recyclable, energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly material.

Alternatives to plastic

Packaging is a medicine’s first point of contact with patients, their families and carers, doctors and pharmacists. New electronic and sensor technologies allow us to conceive increasingly smart solutions that facilitate this delicate interaction. Our smart packaging thus becomes an active ally to the therapy, by supporting therapeutic adherence, providing data to assess efficacy and safety, protecting the medicine from counterfeiting, and integrating easily with digital care systems.

Smart packaging

Through active listening and co-planning, we develop custom services that meet specific needs and test their potential with rapid experimentation processes.
From assessments of the environmental impact of the packaging (LCA) to logistical support, from technical training to the management of new medicine launches and quality control operations, we integrate our packaging offering into a broader, more flexible and customised ecosystem in order to support our customers every day.

Expert Services

At our plant in Gossolengo (Piacenza), we develop innovative labels that anticipate market requirements. Today, labels are becoming technology platforms, as we integrate smart solutions such as RFID and NFC devices for cold chain monitoring, medicinal product authentication and advanced traceability. We are committed to creating packaging that communicates, interacts, guarantees and protects the safety of the medicine and the supply chain.

Special labels

We work to make clinical trials more effective and accessible by better managing critical variables and deadlines. With a portfolio already suited to this setting, we develop solutions for decentralised and hybrid studies and integrate advanced technologies to monitor medicine storage conditions and promote treatment adherence. Our goal: to optimise processes and facilitate rapid decisions at every stage of the study.
