Schreiner MediPharm Introduces a New Label Designed for Cold Temperature Applications in Clinical Trials
Special Transparent Surface Layer Prevents Condensation and Protects Base Label on Frozen Products
BLAUVELT, NY -- Schreiner MediPharm, a Germany-based global provider of specialty pharmaceutical labeling solutions for over 50 years, introduces a new labeling solution, specifically designed for cold temperature and frozen products used during clinical trials. The Pharma-Wrap label offers extended text space and wraps around small to medium sized containers as well as ampoules and vials. The label enables easy, reliable marking with variable data, even after its application to the container.
Reliable Marking at Freezing Temperatures
During clinical trials, new pharmaceuticals are often stored at very low temperatures and marked with variable data later in the process. Additional marking of drugs stored in temperatures of below 4° F posed a challenge due to the condensation that a conventional label would develop immediately after being removed from the freezer. The water from the condensation had to be removed in a separate process before the label could be marked or an additional label could be applied.
The new Pharma-Wrap label contains a transparent surface layer that prevents any kind of condensation from forming and protects the base label from abrasion and scratching. This allows for a second smaller label containing the variable data to be applied immediately after removing the product from the freezer.
Enhanced Safety and Increased Savings
Another benefit in using the Pharma-Wrap for clinical trials is that it has two detachable corners marked with a P for “placebo” and V for “active drug.” After applying the label, the operator can detach the corner that doesn’t apply to indicate, at a glance, whether it’s a placebo or an active drug. This avoids mistakes and saves time when subsequently marking the product with variable data. Pharma-Wrap reduces the need for different types of labels and significantly saves time and money.
