Custom Design Plastic Bottles and Closures Made Exclusively for You

Sometimes a stock PET bottle, standard HDPE bottle, or an off-the-shelf plastic closure is not sufficient. What you really need is custom packaging. At Drug Plastics, we understand that you may want your product to look special. Perhaps there are filling equipment, regulatory, labeling, light sensitivity, or other packaging requirements you must address as well. We’ll make it easy for you to get the perfect custom plastic bottle and closure for your product.

Understanding Your Requirements

We begin every custom project with a single goal: to thoroughly understand how you want the plastic packaging to look and the specifications it must meet. We call this process requirement gathering. Capturing these qualitative and quantitative details facilitates an on-time, on-budget, and on-target custom design plastic packaging solution.

Evaluating Initial Concepts

Depending on your requirements, there may be several ways to achieve the desired look and specifications of your custom design plastic bottle or closure. We’ll provide you with all of the design options that meet your needs so that you can decide the best direction for your packaging.

Identifying the Best Resin Type for Your Bottle

There are many different types of plastic resin used to make bottles and closures: High Density Polyethylene (HDPE); Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET); and Polypropylene (PP). Each different type of resin has unique properties which may or may not be advantageous for the product that will be packaged inside. We can help you determine which resin is the right choice for your product.

Determining the Correct Closure Liner Your Product Packaging

Did you know that certain closure liners are designed for liquids and others are designed for solid dose medications? Closure liners are specifically designed for different types of products: choosing the proper closure liner will not only protect your product and the consumer, it can also save you money. It’s important to understand the materials used to manufacture closure liners and the questions to ask to determine which type of liner is best for your plastic bottle.

Choosing the Best Manufacturing Process

Drug Plastics uses four distinct types of blow molding: Extrusion Blow Molding (EBM), Compression Blow Molding (CBM), Injection Blow Molding (IBM), and Injection Stretch Blow Molding (ISBM). The size and bottle geometry, along with the type of plastic resin being used, determine which manufacturing process is best. With over 60 years of bottle making experience, our experts will help you to select the best molding process for your plastic bottle.

Engineering for Flawless Integration

Plastic bottles and closures must be engineered to work seamlessly. The closure must seal perfectly. The bottle must be designed to meet labeling or filling requirements. Both items must function efficiently within the dimensional requirements of the filling operation. You can rest easy knowing our experienced team of engineers will ensure your product meets these requirements.

Designing the Perfect Form

Our in-house designers will create a detailed CAD product drawing outlining every critical dimension of your HDPE bottle, PET bottle, or plastic closure. This drawing will provide the direction needed to create manufacturing molds. It will also be a reference check to ensure that the product we make meets your specifications.

Crafting the Elemental Mold

Drug Plastics has its own mold-making facility. Our engineers design, fabricate, qualify, maintain, and repair our molds. Our capabilities range from unit-cavity prototype molds through multi-cavity production molds. We build the highest precision tools using high-grade materials and proprietary technologies we have developed in-house. This ensures that our molds produce a consistent product, perform exceedingly well under high production demands, and provide a higher ROI for your plastic packaging.

Maintaining the Highest Quality Standards

While most companies claim to make a quality product, few claim to make a perfect product. For years, we have said we are “A Family of Perfect Quality.” Rightfully so.

Materials, equipment, and decades of process knowledge come together to create uniformity and unequaled consistency. That’s why each plastic bottle and closure we produce is virtually perfect and identical, every time.
