Gerresheimer presents first US multilayer produced bottle at CPhI 2016

Global pharmaceutical partner Gerresheimer has presented an extension of their new plastic container, Duma Twist-off Protect, at CPhI 2016.

Their Triveni Round induction seal has been extended with a 60ml container with multilayer features for the US market. Tests have shown that the new product features enhanced protection against water vapour and oxygen to sensitive pharmaceutical drugs, which help prevent degradation. The Duma Twist-Off Protect is the first plastic container with a multilayer sandwich structure manufactured in an injection blow moulding process.

 “Duma Twist-Off Protect has created a very high interest and proven its quality. Therefore, with US Triveni Round, we are extending our portfolio to offer the line of products used at the US market with this excellent feature,” said Niels Düring, global executive vice president Plastic Packaging at Gerresheimer.

The multilayer containers are fully compatible with the Duma Twist-Off and the US Triveni product range/same closures.
