Primary packaging design: solutions and advice

Looking for a partner to design primary packaging as part of developing your plastic part?

Cemiplast integrates primary packaging development in Switzerland from the design stage. It thus ensures consistency between the part, its function and its packaging.

Primary packaging design: a step built into product development

At Cemiplast, primary packaging is designed at the same time as the part, not afterwards. This approach avoids back-and-forth between part design and packaging design. It is also one of the key development steps, alongside prototyping and process validation.

Primary packaging design: material and geometry advice

Cemiplast advises its customers on the material and geometry of primary packaging. These choices take into account the part’s function and production constraints. For medical devices, primary packaging also determines regulatory compliance and product sterility. Its cleanroom production is presented on our Primary packaging for medical devices page.

 

Requests relating to a design project, including primary packaging, are centralised with Cemiplast’s innovation team. The team then coordinates with the production teams to validate technical feasibility upfront.

Primary packaging design: how we work with you

Initial discussion

Initial literature search and assessment of the patentability of the idea, to frame the project.

Design and development

Part design, taking into account the functional, economic and regulatory constraints of the project.

Prototyping

Prototype pre-production, to validate the material choice and feasibility before industrialisation.

Industrial phasing and production

Industrial phasing then production of the moulded parts, with assembly depending on the project.

Packaging and validation

Packaging development, packaging management and process validation.

They trust us

Industrial companies call on Cemiplast to build primary packaging into the design of their part from the outset.

Frequently asked questions about primary packaging design

Integrating primary packaging early avoids inconsistencies between the part and its packaging. It also secures regulatory compliance, particularly for medical devices.

Yes. Cemiplast advises its customers on the material and geometry of primary packaging, in line with the part’s function and production constraints.

Design requests, including primary packaging, are centralised with Cemiplast’s innovation team.

Yes. For medical devices, Cemiplast produces primary packaging in an ISO 7 cleanroom, in the same environment as the part.

Yes. Packaging operations are also among the steps handled by Cemiplast, after primary packaging development.
