NextPharma has added a new bottle filling line for tablets at its Göttingen facility in Germany. The 45-meter ‘U-Form’ line is constructed with a separate primary area for filling and sealing and secondary area for labeling and packaging. This new addition also meets GMP/FDA standards.

Currently, the line is set up to provide six bottling formats with the capability to add other formats as needed.Round or square bottles can be bundled or packed directly into boxes on the line and can be sealed with screw caps or press-on caps with tamper proof or childproof sealings. The labeling unit can also provide a number of different formats including a printed Data-Matrix Code.
