Aluminum for the pharmaceutical industry
8079 foil for push-through blister, polyethylene laminates and seals, printed up to six colors and varnished. Converted in Mexico, with mill test report per lot and the FSSC 22000 system.

What a pharmaceutical lab asks for
Zero pinholes, uniform sealing to PVC or PVDC, and a supplier that passes the quality audit without surprises. For labs in North America, that audit is a flight to Mexico City, not to another continent.
Almexa converts foil in the State of Mexico: the lab audits a plant two hours from the airport.
