Pharmaceutical Folding Carton with Child-Resistant CR Lock — Tamper-Evident Tablet Packaging

Product Overview

Child-resistant (CR) pharmaceutical folding carton engineered for tablet, capsule, and lozenge packaging requiring certified child-safe access. The integrated push-and-turn CR lock mechanism meets ISO 8317 child-resistant packaging standards, while the tamper-evident perforated tear strip provides visible proof of first-opening integrity. Raised Braille dots embossed directly into the SBS board ensure accessibility compliance with EU Falsified Medicines Directive (2011/62/EU) requirements. Full CMYK offset printing on pharmaceutical-grade solid bleached sulphate (SBS) board for crisp barcode readability and regulatory text clarity. Manufactured by Guangdong Bincai Color Printing Co., Ltd. (founded 2003) in our ISO 9001:2015 and FSC-certified Foshan facility with 1.7M daily output capacity.
