Product type
PVC blister packs are a type of packaging commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry for the secure containment of tablets, capsules, and other medical products. Made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), these packs are designed to provide a protective barrier against moisture, light, and contamination, ensuring the integrity and longevity of the packaged products. The structure typically consists of a formed plastic cavity that holds the product, sealed with a backing material, often aluminum or paper.

| Thickness | 0.2 mm to 1.0 mm |
| Seal type | Heat seal or cold seal |
| Standard sizes | Customizable based on product dimensions |
| Transparency | Clear or opaque options available |
| Barrier properties | Excellent moisture and oxygen barrier |
When selecting PVC blister packs, buyers should consider the specific product dimensions and the required thickness for optimal protection. It is important to specify the type of seal needed, as well as any barrier properties that may be necessary for the product's shelf life. Certifications related to food safety or pharmaceutical standards may also be relevant depending on the application. Quantities can vary widely based on production needs, so it's advisable to discuss volume requirements during the quoting process.
