Description
Overview

Unit Dosage Packaging

One administration per package — scannable at the bedside against the patient record.

The constraint is fitting a readable barcode onto packaging smaller than a stamp, which is why 2D DataMatrix replaced linear codes here. Perforation has to leave each dose still labelled.

Crafted to specification

Every detail. Intentional.

Scannable at the bedside

Verified against the patient's record.

DataMatrix over linear

More data in far less space.

Labelled to the last dose

Perforation must not remove identification.

Poor volume-to-surface ratio

Which raises barrier requirements per dose.

Formats follow the dose

Strips, cups, sachets and syringes.

Test with the hospital system

Scanning workflow, not just the code.

Sizing & dieline.

Every Unit Dosage Packaging is cut to a dieline built around your product — not pulled off a shelf. Send us the length, width and height of the item (or the item itself) and we return a measured dieline, free, before you commit to anything.

How to measure
01
Measure the product

Length, width and height of the item itself, at its widest points — not the box you happen to use today.

02
Add clearance

Allow 2–4 mm on each axis for a snug fit, and more if you are adding foam, a pillow insert or tissue.

03
Give us the order

We quote as Length × Width × Height. Tell us whether you are working in millimetres or inches and we match it.

✦ Not sure of your size? Send us the product — we measure it and build the dieline.

What It Costs

Pricing & minimums.

Unit Dosage Packaging is priced per specification rather than from a fixed list — the same box in two different finishes can land at very different numbers. Below is what actually moves the price, so you can shape the spec before you request a quote.

What moves the price
Quantity

The single biggest lever. Unit cost falls sharply as volume rises, because setup and tooling spread across more pieces.

Material and thickness

Board weight and stock choice change both the raw material cost and the shipping weight of the finished run.

Finishing

Foil, spot UV, embossing and soft-touch each add a pass on press. One or two lift the box; five compound the cost.

Print coverage

Full-bleed print inside and out costs more than a one-sided design on natural stock.

Inserts and hardware

Foam, moulded pulp, velvet pillows, magnets and ribbon are priced per piece on top of the box itself.

Timeline

Standard production is the base rate. Rush moves you up the production queue and carries a surcharge.
