Millions of Needle-Trap Labels Distributed

Schreiner MediPharm, a Germany-based global provider of specialty pharmaceutical labeling solutions, announces the successful international market entry of its Needle-Trap label.

Designed to help prevent accidental needlestick injuries from disposable syringes, the Needle-Trap system was launched two years ago. To date, millions of Needle-Trap labels have already been distributed, the firm reports in a press release.

A safety mechanism is integrated into the self-adhesive syringe label that allows the needle to be safely secured after it has been used. Needle-Trap labels can be integrated into conventional labeling systems and are adaptable to the most common syringe types, Schreiner MediPharm reports. In addition, a compact design reduces material consumption and packaging complexity, thus offering environmental benefits, the company adds in the release.

“The Needle-Trap label has seen very high acceptance rates since its launch,” says Gene Dul, President of Schreiner MediPharm L.P., in the press release. “We believe that comes as a result of its innovative design and the critical purpose it serves in the healthcare industry. We remain committed to sharing its advantages with as many healthcare professionals as possible.”

Schreiner invested in a custom-made machinery to produce the Needle-Trap system.
