When it comes to providing tailored information on a pharmaceutical bottle, printed paper labels are most often used. To bring this highly outdated system into the future, E Ink and Faubel introduced 'The Med Label.'
This smart labeling system for investigational medicinal products integrates low-voltage film technology from E Ink, along with RFID technology, so that pharmaceutical packaging may be updated as needed on-demand. This is particularly noteworthy, considering that the low-power, battery-free E Ink display may even be updated on a sealed kit.
Beyond the benefits that this smart packaging solution offers for the clinical trial supply chain, it also has the potential to support the pharmaceutical industry's continued use of digital tools going forward in the years to come.
