Chadwicks enters pharmaceutical packaging sector

Company adds PS9000 pharmaceutical accreditation to its existing BRC Version 4 certification (Grade A) and ISO 9001 accreditation

Leading innovative producer of pre-cut lids and shrinksleeves, Clondalkin Group company Chadwicks, has further enhanced its quality assurance standards with the PS9000 pharmaceutical accreditation now added to its existing BRC Version 4 certification (Grade A) and ISO 9001 accreditation. The Clondalkin Pharma & Healthcare business comprises 17 production sites across Europe and North America, so Chadwicks taps right into world leading pharmaceutical sector capabilities.

Chadwicks has more than 50 years of experience in the flexible packaging industry and is a world-leader in pre-cut lid manufacture and a supplier of choice in shrinksleeve production.

Having long been associated with quality, reliability and innovation within the pre-cut lids sector and with several years experience in producing shrink sleeves, Chadwicks views this accreditation as the platform on which to build business in the highly demanding pharmaceutical market.

Part of the Flexible Packaging Division of the Clondalkin Group, Chadwicks works with its sister company Nyco, a shrinksleeve manufacturer based in Switzerland, to provide a joint service to multi-site European buyers; together the two companies can provide a wider range of print processes including UV flexo, gravure and offset litho.

'Gaining PS9000 accreditation is a great achievement for Chadwicks. Our ability to deliver specialist products designed to support the technical requirements of the market continues to be one of our core competencies,' said Martin Hardman, sales and marketing director at Chadwicks.

'We see particular opportunities for our shrinksleeve products in pharmaceutical packaging applications and have been working on innovations that offer added value in the sector.'
