More than 2,200 pounds (around one ton) of a product labeled as Skyline Chili, a popular Cincinnati-style chili, are being recalled in the US due to a mix-up. The cans impacted – and there could be thousands of them on the market and already in people’s kitchen cupboards – were discovered to actually contain cream of chicken soup, the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced on Wednesday.

Pharma, like every other industry, has an impact on the environment – and in the face of a climate crisis, it has a responsibility to find ways to mitigate this harm. In a GlobalData survey conducted last year, 43% of respondents considered the environment the most pressing ESG (environmental, social and governance) issue for the pharmaceutical sector to address.

At a virtual meeting on Tuesday, November 16, the Food and Drug Administration will go over changes to the Drug Supply Chain Security Act that the agency hopes will better protect consumers by detecting and/or preventing illegitimate products from getting into circulation. Illegitimate products are described as “counterfeit,” “diverted,” “stolen,” “fraudulent transaction” and “unfit for distribution.” Changes to the DSCSA go into effect November 2023 and include enhanced drug distribution security at the package level. This can be achieved various ways, such as through serialization and other traceability technologies.

Sometimes it seems that technology effectively addresses these needs in the online world. However, everyone is moving toward the combination of the digital and physical worlds into a “phygital” construct. This is getting closer to the desired nirvana of the omnichannel state. As a result, there is the necessity of increasing human engagement in some manner.

Connected packaging turns the product into an infinite canvas. As much content and as much detail as needed. An example is Coca-Cola, which created a joined-up, engaging experience for purchasers of its Bundesliga Club-branded beverage cans throughout Germany. Each can was branded with one of the 18 Bundesliga Clubs. Users were prompted to scan a QR code, which linked to an online football game and a competition with football shirts offered as prizes.

Packaging has been a crucial part of the product experience for centuries. But its purpose has mostly remained the same—to protect and promote its contents. Now, digital innovations are enabling companies to completely transform what packaging can do. And none are more promising than the concept of smart and connected packaging.

The collaboration comes at a time when smart packaging solutions are more urgently needed than ever. From eliminating food waste, fighting counterfeiting and market diversion, driving supply chain efficiencies, brand protection and consumer engagement, to increasing recycling rates, there are countless spaces where active, connected and interactive packaging innovation can have a transformative impact. Together, AIPIA and Packaging Europe intend to support this transformation.

Serialization codes are used in incoming and outgoing goods to check and comply with legal requirements. Such requirements vary from country to country - in the EU, for example, prescription medicines will be checked for authenticity with these codes since 2019. The Multi Code Reader is thus an important aid for the pharmaceutical industry. The Multi Code reader quality control system is based on a camera system that scans and aggregates up to 500 individual packages in one reading. A giant leap compared to scanning each individual package by hand.

Not one single trend has experienced a surge during the pandemic as much as QR codes. Once a laughing matter, QR codes rose from the untapped depths of the marketing toolkit and have made their way to the forefront of modern business strategies for many. Whether used by a company, consumer, or individual, the value of the QR code has gained appreciation and acceptance due to its ease of use and convenience. Perhaps you were introduced to this technology through your vaccine certificate, or the new digital menu at your favorite restaurant, or even when you received your flight boarding pass in your inbox. Regardless, by now virtually everyone has been exposed to and knows their way around a QR code. As a savvy creative, you should consider capitalizing on the trend to deliver a better customer experience in 2022.

A missing label on Semglee® (insulin glargine) prefilled pens, for patients receiving treatment with more than one type of insulin (e.g., both short and long-acting insulin), could lead to a mix-up of products/strengths, resulting in administration of the wrong insulin. Administration of the wrong insulin could result in less optimal glycemic control (either high or low blood sugar) which could result in serious complications. To date, the company has not received any reports of adverse events related to this recall.

Almost every institution you can think of has sought out and adopted QR codes as a salve to COVID uncertainties, bringing people into frequent exposure with menacing boxes, perhaps frequent enough to have them become embedded into fatigue of "hygiene theater" and the seemingly never-ending crisis. But to wish for their demise is not only futile, it's just shooting the messenger — one of the most versatile ones we have.

The GS1 Healthcare community recommends the implementation of GS1 DataMatrix as the ONLY globally endorsed 2D / Matrix data carrier for product identification in healthcare. The use of QR codes for providing healthcare product information electronically within care settings or to patients should be considered carefully and in the context of potentially confusing users within the healthcare supply chain, including patients or healthcare provider staff. The GS1 Healthcare community does NOT recommend the use of QR codes for product identification.

Virtually all brands face the threat of product counterfeiting and gray market diversion. But there are two other key challenges that concern brand owners today. The need to keep pace with interactive packaging technologies for consumer engagement is certainly one. At the same time, rapidly expanding global supply chains make it difficult to know exactly where your products are and if they are being sold by trusted partners as intended.

Decarbonization across value chains is integral to companies’ ability to transform to net zero. However, companies can struggle to decarbonize their packaging value chains, which largely depend on plastics. Some companies are assessing how to reduce emissions throughout the plastics manufacturing process, exploring end-of-life solutions or substituting plastics materials altogether.

The T60 Integrated 360 Series from Mettler-Toledo PCE uses six image sensors to provide a 360-degree view of the container, ensuring small product or serialization codes printed directly on the bottle or applied label can be read. The ability to print product codes directly onto bottles and vials rather than on cartons saves time and money by reducing the number of labeling process and systems that must be maintained.

Products made with delta-8, as well as other synthetic cannabinoids such as delta-10, THCP and THC-O, have entered the market, often touted as a legal alternative to cannabis. These products are technically not legal because they contain a synthetic cannabinoid and include smokeable flower, oils and edibles, including gummies, cereal bars, cookies and more. Adult-use cannabis is projected to be available for legal retail sales in Virginia in 2024.
