Folded Inserts and Outserts
A company prints and folds package inserts and outserts for the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. Inserts and outserts are printed and converted in up to eight colors, using sheet-fed or web offset presses. Package inserts are printed and folded for use with in-line cartoners and blister packaging equipment. Inserts are folded to meet the tolerances of various automatic inserting equipment. Outserts, which are applied to bottles during filling operations, are folded to a variety of finished sizes and styles, such as RTA- (right turn angle) style outserts or strip-style outserts. All inserts and outserts are automatically counted and labeled for full lot traceability, meeting stringent guidelines required by healthcare and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
