Multi-layer strip: the final frontier in single-dose

Innovative technology developed by Lameplast Group enables the use of different plastics within a single-dose pack. For when one layer is just not enough.

Glass, Glam, Soft touch, Steam-proof, Total-block, Eco: this is the new team of multi-layer strips developed by Lameplast Group, at the very cutting edge of single-dose containers. After several years’ research, our R&D labs are finally able to exploit different plastics (including polyethylene and polypropylene) and combine them with other plastic polymers.

The multi-layer opens interesting new opportunities for displaying and protecting pharmaceutical products, cosmetics and medical devices. Unlike conventional single-layer strips, multi-layer packs have an outer layer - and an intermediate one if necessary - in addition to the inner layer in contact with the product. Each layer can be chosen based on specific marketing requirements, for example to increase barrier properties, to improve single-dose compressibility or simply to play with the colours without interfering with the contents.
Currently available in 1 ml and 3 ml non-reclosable strips of 5 single-dose, the new Lameplast containers are suitable for containing any type of product, liquids, creams or gels. The shape of the single-dose and the thickness of the layers can be further customised. Production is carried out in a class 100,000 (particles/ft³) at rest - 3,520,000 (particles/m³) in operational clean room, ISO 8 (in accordance with UNI-EN-ISO 14644-1). Rigorous checks are conducted throughout the process to ensure the customary level of quality multiplied over three layers.

Six different possibilities by Lameplast for storing
and displaying the products
Glass: highly transparent to enhance the contents.
Glam: customisable with standard or fashion colours (colour applied to outer layer only to prevent contact with the product).
Soft touch: ultra-soft and pleasing to touch, easily compressed for total emptying of contents.
Steam-proof: made from materials resistant to autoclave sterilisation (121 °C for 20 minutes), without compromising the compressibility of the single-dose.
Total-block: designed for products requiring a high level of protection. Excellent barrier against water vapour and gasses: a valid alternative to aluminium pouches.
Eco: strips with reduced environmental impact designed for natural or organic products.
Made with an outer layer of recycled plastic and an inner layer of top quality virgin PE in contact with the product; matt colour on outer layer for attractive aesthetic effect.
