34 October 2014 Tablets & Capsules Non-PVC blister films PX and PXA series blister films provide equivalent perfor- mance to that of PVC films but offer better processability and greater clarity. PX co-polyester film is non-barrier alter- native to mono-layer PVC, and PXA is co-polyester PCTFE laminate that protects against moisture. Both films comply with EU and US standards and offer excellent clarity and transparency. They run well on all form-fill-seal equipment using existing tooling design, form at lower temperatures than PVC, and seal to conventional lidding. Tekni-Plex, Somerville, NJ.
