Production runs for blister foil printing are becoming ever shorter, and the effectiveness of flexographic printing, with its relatively long setup times, is suffering as a result.
Fully digital DoD UV inkjet printing technology can keep costs in check; even for small and medium-size batches.
Until now, pharmaceutical packaging providers have primarily used UV flexography for printing blister lid foil because of long production running times and large batch sizes.
However the industry is changing, and smaller batch sizes, well below 100,00 blisters per production run, is forcing companies to look for alternative and more cost-effective printing technologies.
