Blister packaging, in the context of an outer carton, refers to the folding box built specifically around a blister strip, sized precisely so the strip sits securely without excess movement inside. This outer carton carries the branding, dosage, and regulatory information that the blister strip itself does not have room for.
Why Precise Sizing Matters
A blister strip is rigid and unforgiving compared with a bottle or pouch; if the outer box is too large, the strip will rattle and potentially crack inside the box during transit. We size blister packaging cartons closely to the strip's exact dimensions to prevent this.
Styles We Make
We build simple tuck end cartons sized to standard or bespoke blister strip dimensions, with space for full patient or ingredient information as required.
Materials
Coated folding carton board is standard, chosen for print clarity and structural precision around a rigid blister strip.
Order Sizes We Support
Custom blister packaging cartons are available from around 100 to 250 units, suiting supplement and health product brands.
Average Blister Packaging Prices
As a general guide, blister packaging cartons typically cost between £0.15 and £0.60 per unit, depending on size, material, print colours and finish.
Sustainability
Recyclable folding carton board is standard, with FSC-sourced options available on request.
