Understanding cold seal technology

Cold seal blister packaging uses only pressure to seal, with no heat at all. By clamping the blister between two layers of carton, we create a secure seal that protects the product and simplifies production. Our founder Ron Linssen invented this technology in 1995, together with Professor G. Wouters, and founded Ecobliss in 1996. The water-based adhesive is still produced in our own facility, and although competitors have tried, none have matched its stability and quality. It is one of the reasons around 90% of our pharma customers choose cold seal.

Our expertise lies in developing packaging solutions for medications that require clear, high-quality, and custom-designed packaging. By offering tailor-made designs, we ensure that your product stands out in the market and meets all requirements and patient needs.

Whether you require packaging for high-value medications, specialty drugs, or medical devices, our cold seal solutions can be tailored to meet your specific needs regardless of the complexity.

Enhanced patient experience

We focus on creating packaging that not only protects the product but also enhances usability. Features such as easy-open mechanisms, clear instructions, and tamper-evident solutions improve the patient experience, leading to increased adherence and better health outcomes.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between cold seal and heat seal blister packaging?

Heat seal uses heat to bond the pack. Cold seal uses pressure only: the blister is clamped between two layers of carton with a water-based adhesive, so no heat is needed to seal and there are no heating or cooling times in the process.

Is cold seal suitable for pharmaceutical products?

Yes. Around 90% of our pharma customers choose cold seal, for blisters, syringes and medical devices. We pack it in our GMP-licensed facility, with serialisation if required.

Is cold seal blister packaging recyclable?

The plastic blister and the carton layers are not sealed together, so after use they separate cleanly and both materials can be recycled.

Can you also supply child-resistant packaging?

Yes. For projects that need child resistance in the EU and the US, our Locked4Kids formats are certified to ISO 8317 and to F=1 under US 16 CFR 1700.20. Test details are on locked4kids.com.

Can we run cold seal packaging in-house?

Yes. We supply cold seal and heat seal packaging machines, from manual shuttle machines to fully automated inline lines, with the tooling, validation documentation and on-site installation. You can compare all models on blistermachines.com.
