PVC/PVDC Transparent Films

Widely used medium barrier thermoform blister-films PVC/PVdC Transparent Films

• PVdC coated PVC films give moisture barrier between approximately five to ten times greater than mono PVC alone.
• PVdC coated films may be used on same thermoforming equipment as used for mono PVC.
• Formed blisters using PVdC coated PVC films are stand alone and typically do not need aluminum foil over wrapping and depending on type and climate-zone can give up to two years shelf life for packed tablets or capsules. This packaging method also is more barrier-friendly to the medication as once an aluminum over-wrap has been opened once, all barrier properties are lost while an individually packaged PVC blister keeps each tablet barrier-protected in its own individual "pocket".
