    With the launch of kpNext, sustainable packaging technology for the pharmaceutical market continues to advance
    .
    KpNext is Klöckner Pentaplast (kp)'s first innovation in the market for recyclable PET blister films

    .
    It is made from globally recyclable materials and is designed to be recycled in RIC (Resin Identification Code) No.
    1 PET stream

    .

    The kpNext is said to be a PET recyclable capsule shell that is 100% compatible with form, fill and seal (FFS) equipment for pharmaceutical production
    .

    It performs on par with traditional materials and is an alternative to standard blister film
    .
    Pharmaceutical companies and processors can use kpNext directly on their FFS lines without losing line speed or reinstallation

    .

    "Current capsule shell packaging is classified as RIC No.
    7, made of multiple material structures, is not recyclable, and is therefore often landfilled or incinerated," said Daniel Stagnaro, technical lead.
    "Pharmaceutical companies have been demanding capsule shell manufacturing suppliers provide a responsible and recyclable solution

    .
    kp addresses these challenges with kpNext

    .

    The film is the culmination of three years of research and development at the company's kp i.
    center, an application development laboratory in Charlottesville, Virginia

    .

    Speaking at the launch, Dr.
    Jorg Schneewind, President of kp PHD Division, said: "kpNext is an excellent example of product innovation, as it is designed to be recyclable, a seamless transition that relieves customers of the burden of adapting to sustainable films

    .
    A real milestone for the industry and kp
