Primary packaging

Primary Packaging: Primary packaging is the first layer of packaging that directly encloses and protects a product. In pharmaceuticals and medical devices, it is critical for maintaining the integrity, safety, and effectiveness of the product. This packaging is in direct contact with the product, whether it is sterile or non-sterile. For non-sterile products, the primary packaging ensures protection against physical damage and environmental factors like moisture and light, and it may include materials such as plastic, glass, or metal depending on the nature of the product. For sterile products, the primary packaging system must maintain sterility until use and may consist of single items or grouped components assembled into kits intended for a specific therapy.
