Almus® Range
The success of the Almus® generics concept has been widely recognised throughout the industry.
Almus® broke the mould of pharmaceutical packaging design when it was launched in 2003. The user-focused design concept incorporates a series of operational and patient-centred benefits, created by pharmacists to provide practical solutions to patient safety in pharmacy, to aid the dispensing process and enhance patient safety.
Almus® continues to lead the field in user-focused design. Recent packaging innovations have included tablet identification on the front and rear fascia of packs and the development of the PocketPak design. Almus® packaging concepts evolve from pharmacy feedback and research identifying 'best practice' in packaging and patient safety throughout Europe.
