Aptar Pharma’s Airless+ semi-solid dispensing systems offer safe and reliable metered dispensing of several skin medication types while protecting them from exposure to air. The Airless+ system is ideal for protecting gel, cream and lotion products as well as providing clean and precise skin treatment dosing of different viscosities. Our Airless+ systems come with actuator, container size and dose volume options, that deliver consumer convenience and brand differentiation.
Aptar Pharma’s Airless+ dispensing systems were designed with product protection in mind. No air can enter the dispensing system throughout the life of the product, thus protecting even the most sensitive formulations. As the semi-solid skin treatment is dispensed from the metered pump system, the displaced product volume is not replaced with external air. Instead, the physical movement of a piston compensates for the evacuated formulation, leaving no unoccupied headspace. Airless+ dispensing systems protect their contents from air and light for enhanced product shelf life.
Offering clean, precise dispensing in a portable, easy to use format makes Airless+ dispensers ideal for patients with a range of skin conditions. Airless+ dispensers are also easy to integrate onto standard filling lines and can provide product differentiation opportunities for pharmaceutical companies.
