Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil for Secure Medicine Packaging
Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil is an aluminum foil material specially designed for pharmaceutical packaging, primarily used as the sealing layer in blister packaging. Its main function is to form a secure bond with the base material of the blister pack (such as PVC, PVDC, PET, PP, and cold-formed laminates) to create a sealed enclosure, ensuring the protection and safety of the medication.
Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil features excellent heat-sealing properties, enabling it to bond with various materials and seal tablets, pills, capsules, and medical devices. Its sealing and barrier properties are particularly outstanding, effectively preventing the medication from being exposed to external factors such as oxygen and moisture, thereby ensuring the stability and extending the shelf life of the drugs.
In addition, Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil also supports the printing of pharmaceutical information, making it easier for product identification and traceability. Due to its excellent physical properties, it plays a crucial role in pharmaceutical packaging, helping to ensure the quality, effectiveness, and safety of the medication.

Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil Characteristics
As the lid material for pharmaceutical blister packaging, aluminum foil has excellent sealing properties, completely isolating external air and moisture to ensure the safety of the medication.
The surface can be coated with a heat-seal lacquer layer, which firmly seals to the blister base material, forming a sealed structure.
Customizable surface printing patterns, including brand names, medication information, and usage instructions, enhance product traceability and consumer experience.
Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil Applications
Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil is widely used in pharmaceutical packaging, especially for single-dose medication packaging. Its main function is to protect the medication from external influences such as moisture, oxygen, and light, thereby ensuring the stability and shelf life of the medication.
Pharmaceutical Packaging: Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil is commonly used to package tablets, capsules, powders, and other medications. The medication is sealed between the aluminum foil and the blister plastic base, forming single-dose packaging, making it convenient for carrying and use.
OTC Medications: Suitable for packaging over-the-counter medications such as cold medicines, vitamins, pain relievers, etc.
Prescription Medications: For medications that require strict dosage control, blister packaging can effectively ensure the accuracy of each dose.
Vaccines and Biopharmaceutical Products: In some fields where external influences need to be prevented, such as vaccines and biopharmaceutical products, Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil is also used for protective packaging.
Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil Processing and Advantages
Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil Processing
The coating of the heat-seal lacquer layer is an important part of the processing of Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil, directly affecting the sealing performance and effectiveness of the aluminum foil.
Uniform Coating: The uniformity of the heat-seal lacquer coating is critical to ensure consistent performance during the sealing process. A uniform coating helps improve the overall sealing effect, preventing medication leakage or external contamination.
Excellent Sealing Performance: The heat-seal lacquer layer has good adhesion and heat-sealability, allowing it to quickly undergo a chemical reaction with the blister's plastic base when heated, forming a strong seal to ensure the safety and stability of the medication.
Strong Peel Resistance: The heat-seal lacquer layer of the aluminium foil is specially treated to have strong peel resistance. During the unsealing process of the packaging, the lacquer layer will not easily peel off, preventing any impact on the integrity of the packaging and the protective function of the medication.
Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil Advantages
Advantage | Description |
Superior Sealing Performance | High Barrier Properties: The sealing performance of aluminum foil not only prevents medication leakage but also effectively isolates air, moisture, and light, protecting the medication from external influences. It is an ideal choice for moisture-sensitive or easily oxidized drugs. |
Long Shelf Life: The medication inside the packaging can maintain a long shelf life, unaffected by oxidation, moisture, and other external factors, effectively prolonging its efficacy. | |
Durability and Damage Resistance | Aluminum foil has strong mechanical strength, preventing packaging damage during transportation and storage, ensuring the medication remains intact when it reaches consumers. |
Customization Flexibility | The thickness, size, shape, and other aspects of Aluminium Blister Lidding Foil can be flexibly customized to meet specific packaging requirements. |
Special Pharmaceutical Requirements: Custom aluminum foil packaging can provide extra protection for high-value or special medications. | |
Large-Scale Production: The processing technology of aluminum foil supports large-scale customized production, catering to industrial production needs. | |
Easy Handling and Processing | Aluminum foil has excellent processing properties, making it suitable for various post-processing treatments such as printing, punching, and heat sealing, ensuring perfect sealing with plastic bases without damaging the medication's content. Pharmaceutical information can be clearly printed on the packaging surface. |
Environmental Friendliness | Aluminum foil is recyclable, in line with the trend of eco-friendly packaging, reducing environmental pollution and supporting sustainable development, especially in the context of increasing global attention to environmental protection. |
