Pharmaceutical leaflets and patient cards
At Preston Packaging’s printing house, we aim to provide our customers with everything they need, including the production of pharmaceutical and cosmetic leaflets, product instructions, and patient cards.
Leaflets tailored to your products
We specialise in producing folded leaflets for small format prints on lightweight paper. Leaflets and manuals are printed according to applicable standards and regulations and then folded (folded, roll-folded). We ensure that pharmaceutical leaflets, information leaflets, and product manuals are customised to customers’ needs and specifications.
We will help you choose the right raw material
Our Sales and Customer Service Departments are staffed by a professional team that can help you select the right solutions and materials, including the appropriate paper weight and type (offset, recycled, chalkboard) and folding method (folding for lighter weights; creasing for thicker papers), depending on the packaging.
Pharmaceutical leaflets
They are often referred to as informational leaflets for medications. They are an indispensable component of a medicinal product’s packaging. Their production adheres to rigorous standards for both preparation and post-processing. They are typically printed in 1 colour on very lightweight paper (40-60 g/m2) and folded into very small sizes. Furthermore, delivering them in an open format is customary to facilitate automated packaging on the production line. We also offer colour leaflet printing.
Cosmetic leaflets
Similar to pharmaceutical leaflets, they contain supplementary details about the product. They are printed on lightweight papers and folded into small formats. Typically, the leaflets are printed in 1 colour on exceptionally lightweight paper (40-60 g/m2) and folded into compact sizes. However, there is also the option of printing the leaflets in colour.
Leaflets for dietary supplements
These leaflets are not always included in the packaging of dietary supplements. They are generally included to provide extra product information and marketing content. The leaflets usually contain less content than pharmaceutical leaflets and are printed in full colour on slightly thicker offset paper (70-80 g/m2).
Product instructions
These leaflets are designed to equip users with detailed descriptions, diagrams, and other relevant information for effective product use. They often contain instructions for medical products. The formats vary and can be printed on various materials, such as offset paper, low-white ecological paper, and chalky paper. They can be folded or creased in the case of thicker raw materials.
Patient information cards
With the development of medicine and medicinal products, extra patient information cards are increasingly included in the packaging. Often, these cards contain an extract from the pharmaceutical leaflet and space for entering patient data, dosage frequency, and doctor’s recommendations. These are generally small-format cards printed on thick (250-300 g/m2) offset papers. Another option is to fold information cards with a thickness of up to 150 g/m2 or to crease them several times.
