Now offering travel-size solid dose packaging solution
London, Ont., June 19, 2014 — Jones Packaging Inc. recently invested in a fully automated solid dose plastic vial filling line to address the growing market demand for convenience packaging. The line is operating in the company’s Contract Packaging Services facility in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and is capable of filling 12 million vials annually.
The fully integrated line also includes carding and blistering for a market-ready packaging solution. The Jones Printed Packaging division designs and manufactures the card and label components in-house for tighter control over timelines, costs and quality. A natural extension of the company’s existing contract packaging offering of niche, full-service solutions for its global pharmaceutical and personal care business partners, the end-to-end vial line also provides a cost effective and reliable solution as patents expire and drug products transition to OTCs over the coming years.
All production takes place within a secure cGMP facility, inspected by both the FDA and Health Canada, with a three-shift operation to meet customer needs.
Continued investment in new niche opportunities follows a move last year to a custom-designed contract packaging facility. The 76,000 square foot building features increased production and warehousing capacity, including 18 class 100,000 clean rooms. Five of these rooms are expandable and offer the flexibility to accommodate special projects. The facility’s innovative layout creates a seamless flow throughout the entire building to ensure unique product protection. This is achieved by isolating the primary packaging of pharmaceuticals and natural health products from secondary packaging operations.
Jones services the entire North American market.
