Aluminium Anti-counterfeiting Packaging
There are different anti-fraud methods that can be applied to this type of packaging. Thanks to a long experience in the pharmaceutical sector, among the most affected by this phenomenon, Tubettificio Favia can support you in identifying and applying the most efficient anti-counterfeiting strategy. Here are two examples:
Tamper proof
This device, which tightly joints together the nozzle to the cap, only breaks the first time it is opened showing possible tampering.
Its application is 100% controlled during production using automated inspection systems that guarantee its presence and efficiency.
The value of anti-counterfeiting implies that this ophthalmic nozzle cannot be imited and the sleeve can be printed in different colors and customized with the customers’ logo, in order to emphasize the visual impact.

Combined Printing
The digital printing itself is not a guarantee of anti-counterfeiting, even if there are very few companies in the world that can use this technology on the aluminium tubes.
But Tubettificio Favia provides its customers with a worldwide unique system of digital printing that not only covers the whole tube, but also the cap, and can be integrated with traditional offset printing.
