Largest facility in Brissie
March 19, 2013
THIS week APHS Packaging will
open the doors to one of the
largest and most sophisticated DAA
manufacturing facilities in the world.
Located in Brisbane and
measuring 1985m2, the cleanroom
manufacturing facility is believed to
be one of the biggest of its kind,
and came to being with a $6 million
pricetag.
The facility has the capacity to
deliver 1.8 million sachets every
week into community pharmacies
across Australia, and employs some
of the industry’s most cutting-edge
technology, including a Tablet
Inspection System (TIS), designed
to identify sachet errors via a digital
image before any medication is
released to a customer.
“Our new TGA-licenced facility
gives us the capacity to continue to
meet the ever growing demand for
accurate and quality medication
sachets, now and well into the
future,” said Cathie Reid, APHS
Packaging CEO.
