Schreiner MediPharm wins awards

Schreiner MediPharm, a Germany-based printer of pharmaceutical labels, has won a FINAT Award, a World Label Association Award, a German Packaging Award and the Baxter Award for its packaging innovations.

Schreiner MediPharm won the first place award in the screen printing category for its Japanese syringe label at the European FINAT competition. It was then selected by the FINAT Association to enter the global competition for the World Label Association Award which Schreiner MediPharm also won in the screen line category. The syringe label provides safety features including a scaled, transparent window, which allows the content of the syringe to be seen and a detachable label section for documentation to be applied to a patient’s medical records.

In the German Packaging Institute award competition, packages in various categories are evaluated by a panel of judges for innovative design and superior performance. The best packages in each category are given the German Packaging Award. Schreiner MediPharm was chosen to receive the award for its Needle-Trap label system featuring an integrated safety device to help prevent accidental needlestick injuries. This design allows needles from disposable syringes to be safely and easily secured after they have been used.

Schreiner MediPharm also received the Baxter Award for Versatility and Flexibility at Baxter’s Global Supplier Day 2008. The award honored Schreiner MediPharm’s ‘innovative solutions, fast response and efficient processes’ in an anti-counterfeiting project.
