Pharmapack 2021 Packaging and Drug Delivery Trend Report: Out Now!
Rather than looking back at what has been a challenging past few months, this Trend Report - featuring highlights from the Pharmapack 2021 content programme - has been written very much in the spirit of looking forward and addressing the key challenges and opportunities of the future.
In October the drug delivery and packaging community reunited on-site at Paris Expo, for Pharmapack 2021. The event was a perfect opportunity for the market to not only celebrate the wins against adversity over the last year and a half but also discuss the wealth of creative ideas that continue to drive the industry onwards.
Featuring interviews with subject matter experts, this Trend Report examines the latest drug delivery innovations in large volume biologics which address the issues of administering large volume, viscous drugs without compromising patient comfort. It also discusses sustainability and what the industry is doing to fit eco-friendliness and sustainability into their manufacturing and distribution processes. And finally, it looks at the exciting world of connected devices and smart packaging, where technology intersects with medicine to provide solutions around patient adherence and supply chain tracking and logistics.
