Essentra Packaging, a leading carton, leaflet and label manufacturer to the global healthcare sector, has announced its attendance at the 2022 Pharma Supply Chain Security World conference. Global Technical Product Manager David Gonzalez and VP Sales & Innovation Russell Hill will be speaking on the company’s Clear Code coding technology, aiming to provide a next-generation solution to serialisation challenges.

The high-profile presentation, ‘Clear Code: The next generation coding experience for efficiency challenges’, held at 14:00 GMT on March 15, aims to set out a more agile approach to the future of serialisation in packaging, with innovative Clear Code technology at its core. Clear Code is a future-proofed coding solution that uses CO2, Fiber, or YAG laser energy to cause a chemical reaction in a treated patch on a packaging substrate. This offers a more sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional coding, which involves physically etching onto the packaging.

Speaking ahead of the two-day online conference, which takes place at a crucial time for the whole pharmaceutical industry, Gonzalez said: “As a supplier to 18 of the top 20 global pharma companies, we adopt a patient-centric approach and work collaboratively with our customers to deliver a full range of secondary packaging solutions and technologies that respond to ever-changing market demands. At Essentra Packaging, we believe the opportunity to innovate has never been greater.

“Offering the widest substrate compatibility in the industry, the Clear Code process results in deep blacks and pristine whites, creating a high contrast code that reduces rejections. When combined with its minimal dwell time, improved scuff resistance, and superior image adhesion, this results in faster speeds on the production line and less waste.”

With a focus on the increasing digitisation of the industry, the event promises to cover diverse topics that will shape the future of the pharma supply chain, from the predictive power of AI to the blockchain. With its innovative solution to increasing supply chain agility, Essentra Packaging’s attendance at the event solidifies its commitment to using disruptive technology to meet the needs of a rapidly evolving market.

The event promises to offer insights from industry leaders across the whole pharmaceutical sector and takes place at a time when the technology behind the supply chain is evolving rapidly. Attendees can expect to discover crucial insights on how to keep up with the rapid upheaval within the industry.

Attendees of the event will include GMs, VPs, Directors, Heads, and Managers from across the pharmaceutical industry.
