Gentle and careful application of eye ointment further optimised

The tube manufacturer Tubettificio Perfektüp has developed a new applicator solution for the use of its aluminium tubes in the administration of eye ointment. The primary packaging of ophthalmic ointments is not only to protect the product but also to facilitate its use. Eye care, with the application of eye ointments or eye drops, is the one that elicits the most reticence from patients, especially when it comes to self-medication. But also in the case of having to apply the medication with small children, elderly people or pets, when the "fear of hurting" together with the patient's agitation can easily cause unintentional injuries. The traditional ophthalmic tubes with nozzle in rigid polyethylene, in contact with delicate parts such as the eye or a baby’s skin, can still cause irritation or even injuries. This is where Perfektüp's innovation comes in. The soft thermoplastic elastomer is embedded in the rigid part of the cannula resulting thus in the soft tip that comes into potential contact with the patient’s part to be treated. This development requested not only an important investment but also ingenuity for the complex two-component injection molding technology.
