High-speed unit-dose line brightens Dey

A unit-dose vial line at Dey, L.P., Napa, CA, paid for itself in its first four months of use. From Sigpack Systems, the new line produces individually wrapped unit-dose vials printed with lot number and expiration date.

The line helps Dey keep up with Food & Drug Administration regulations for individually wrapped unit doses with a bar code and expiration date.

Dey is a specialty pharmaceutical company that produces drugs to treat respiratory diseases. Its packaging operation produces cards containing five blow-fill-seal vials. It never had to overwrap single vials until it became necessary to satisfy one hospital customer. That’s when Dey turned to Sigpack Systems.

“There were several factors that went into the decision,” notes Gary Michaud, Dey’s senior vice president of operations. “Among those were the need for a single source for the entire line; packaging design that used the least amount of foil for the overwrap; and a favorable delivery schedule.”
