Secondary packaging

Secondary pharmaceutical packaging that supports presentation, handling & retail display

Pakko can manufacture secondary packaging where the carton, sleeve or outer box holds a primary container such as a bottle, blister pack, tube, sachet, jar or sealed product. This is suitable for:

Vitamins & supplementsOTC medicinesHealthcare productsWellness productsMedical device accessoriesPharmacy retail itemsNatural health productsClinical trial support materialsProduct kitsPractitioner & healthcare ranges
!

Compliance & tamper-evident considerations

Some therapeutic goods and healthcare products may require tamper-evident packaging features, tamper-evident labelling statements, certified primary packaging, sterile packaging, child-resistant packaging, dangerous goods packaging or TGA/GMP licensed packing. Pakko manufactures cardboard and fibre-based packaging and can discuss carton structures, closure styles and design considerations — but these requirements should always be confirmed against your regulatory obligations and internal compliance process before production.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is pharmaceutical packaging?

Packaging used for medicines, supplements, healthcare and pharmacy retail products — including medicine boxes, folding cartons, sleeves, inserts, bottle cartons, blister pack cartons and outer cartons. Pakko manufactures it in Brisbane and supplies customers across Australia.

Can Pakko make custom medicine and supplement boxes?

Yes. Custom medicine boxes, supplement and vitamin cartons, wellness and practitioner range packaging, in a range of sizes, materials, structures and print finishes.

Can pharmaceutical packaging be printed with product information?

Yes. Product names, branding, information panels, barcode and QR code areas, batch and expiry zones, storage instructions and other approved artwork details.

Is Pakko TGA licensed or GMP certified, and can it make tamper-evident packaging?

Pakko manufactures cardboard and fibre-based packaging and can discuss structures and closure styles that may support tamper-evident requirements. If your project needs TGA-licensed or GMP packing, sterile, primary or child-resistant packaging, advise our team so it can be reviewed before the spec is confirmed.

Is pharmaceutical packaging recyclable?

Pakko offers recyclable fibre-based packaging options, with FSC options available depending on board grade and project requirements.

What information does Pakko need to quote?

Product dimensions, quantity, number of SKUs, box style, print requirements, artwork status, barcode or QR code needs, insert requirements and any compliance or handling requirements.

What board and materials are used for pharmaceutical packaging?

Folding carton board, corrugated board and kraft board are common choices, selected based on product weight, handling, shelf presentation and storage conditions such as cold-chain or high-humidity environments.

Can Pakko supply secondary and shipping packaging for pharmacy orders?

Yes. Outer cartons, dispatch boxes and shipper cartons that protect primary packs through warehousing, courier handling and pharmacy or wholesaler distribution.

Does Pakko provide inserts or dividers for pharmaceutical cartons?

Yes. Fitted trays, dividers and inserts can be added to keep bottles, blister packs, vials or ampoules secure and separated during transit.

Can Pakko match packaging across a multi-SKU product range?

Yes. Consistent box styles, structural dimensions and print treatments can be applied across a full product range so packaging stays uniform as new SKUs are added.

What print finishes are available for pharmaceutical cartons?

Options include matte or gloss coatings, spot UV, foiling and soft-touch laminates, alongside standard full-colour or one-colour print, depending on the board grade and budget.

How long does a pharmaceutical packaging order take?

Turnaround depends on structure, print complexity and quantity, but stocked formats typically ship faster than fully custom print runs — our team can confirm timing once artwork and specs are locked in.

Is there a minimum order quantity for pharmaceutical packaging?

Stocked formats are available with no minimum order. Custom print and structural runs may carry a minimum depending on tooling and print setup — ask our team for your specific product.

Can Pakko help with packaging for clinical trial or practitioner-only products?

Yes. Discreet, compliant-style cartons and labelling zones can be discussed for practitioner-only, clinical trial or restricted-distribution products — flag any regulatory requirements early so the spec can be reviewed.
