Bormioli Pharma has partnered with research-focused biopharmaceutical company Chiesi for the supply of Carbon Capture polyethylene terephthalate\u00a0(PET) bottles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The bottles will be used\u00a0for packaging a medication that is intended for prophylaxis and treatment of various types of rhinitis.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

They offer a 21.9% reduction in carbon dioxide (CO\u2082) emissions compared to traditional PET without compromising on safety, as the extractables\u2019 levels are similar to those found in standard PET.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The production of Carbon Capture PET involves a unique process where carbon emissions are captured and converted into BioMEG, a crucial component for making PET, through fermentation.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

These bottles are recyclable and retain the mechanical and physical properties of conventional PET.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This supply partnership represents the first time a Carbon Capture bottle will be used for pharmaceutical purposes, Bormioli Pharma said in a statement.\u00a0<\/p>\n
