At FCE Pharma in São Paulo, Gerresheimer will be showcasing a complete solution for packaging effervescent vitamin C tablets, which are currently seeing strong demand. A leading manufacturer of specialty plastic packaging solutions for pharmaceuticals, Gerresheimer is further expanding its newest plant in Anápolis in the Brazilian state of Goiás.
Complete solution for effervescent vitamin C tablets
The packaging solution comprises a small tube made from polypropyl-ene (PP) with capacity for 10 or 16 tablets and a lid made from low-density polyethylene (LDPE) and filled with desiccant. Versions of the lid with or without a flat coil spring are available. The state-of-the-art offset printing press enables the plastic tubes to be printed in up to six colors, while the shock- and waterproof decoration ensures a long useful life. Strong brand identities can thus be shaped in an eye-catching way and in line with corporate design guidelines.
Anápolis plant being expanded
Gerresheimer Anápolis enjoys a favorable strategic location in Goiás state, home to many Latin American generics manufacturers. The factory, which opened its doors last year, is set to house an entire production line for plastic products, assembly and decoration operations, and a logistics center in the future. To this end, the premises are being expanded to over 29,500 square meters this year. The plant will also supply customers all over Brazil with high-quality packaging products and solutions going forward. By the end of 2020, it will be kitted out with machinery capable of manufacturing most products in Gerresheimer’s portfolio for Brazil such as plastic bottles, caps, syringes, beakers, and droppers.
Gerresheimer in Latin America
With its new factory, Gerresheimer now has a presence in two Brazilian states. Alongside Goiás, the company is also represented in the São Paulo region, where several plants provide the full range of pharmaceutical primary packaging made from plastic. Gerresheimer makes insulin pens for the South American market in Indaiatuba, near to the state capital São Paulo. The company also has another factory for plastic products in the Argentinian city of Buenos Aires and manufactures pharmaceutical ampoules and vials from glass in Querétaro, Mexico.
