Using only pharmaceutical grade polypropylene (PP), Proventu eliminates the need for a separate elastomer valve and incorporates a tethered cap, making it fully recyclable, while preserving bulk integrity with a no suck-back function. For product protection needs, Proventu can be made available with a child-resistant senior-friendly (CRSF) option to be compliant with US 16 CFR 1700.20, and ISO 8317 standards.
From a user perspective, there is no compromise as Proventu incorporates no-mess, user-controlled application and one-handed closing.
Proventu is available with 40 mm diameter, in tube sizes 75-150 ml, enabling measured dispensing of dermal and pain relief medications.
A key goal for Aptar is to show leadership through the implementation of innovative measures that will increase recycled content within products while improving recyclability, reusability and compostability.
Packaging made from just one material is therefore an increasingly attractive option to consider. Today, multi-layer, aluminum foil-containing barrier packaging is particularly problematic for recyclers as, among other challenges, it is incompatible with existing mechanical sorting techniques. Proventu goes some way to alleviating those challenges.
