Pharmaceutical Primary Packaging Materials and Labware

Pharmaceutical packaging must have no interaction with the substance it contains.

Pharmaceuticals also need to be packaged for storing, transporting, and administering in a way that they do not get contaminated before use. As a primary package is in direct contact with the pharmaceutical product, it is crucial that the package is safe – that there is no interaction with the substance that it contains.

ALD coating prevents leachable formation and release into the product as well as gas exchange through the packaging material.

Functionalization of surfaces by modifying hyrdophilic/hydrophobic or conductive properties is achievable by an ALD coating. This is done with practically no extra thickness which makes ALD and attractive solution for applications such as microfuidistics or lab-on-a-chip devices.
