Körber and Dipharma Packaging Challenge Resolution

This case study details how Dipharma SA, a pharmaceutical company specializing in high-quality drugs for rare diseases, collaborated with Körber to address a significant packaging challenge. Dipharma faced issues with the breakage of soluble tablets during handling, which could jeopardize patient safety. To resolve this, Körber adapted its 'Safepack' design to meet Dipharma's specific requirements, creating a double-walled packaging solution with an air chamber on all sides to enhance protection. The effectiveness of the new packaging was validated through rigorous drop tests conducted at Körber's Packaging Qualification Center, demonstrating its ability to prevent tablet breakage even under extreme conditions. The collaboration ensured compliance with national and international drug regulations, including Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and FDA requirements. Ultimately, the new packaging solution significantly improved product safety and reliability, thereby benefiting patients who rely on Dipharma's medications.
