Design and application of high-density polyethylene bottles for oral solid medicine

Mar 04 , 2025

In pharmaceutical packaging, oral solid pharmaceutical high-density polyethylene bottles (HDPE bottles) are a common and important packaging form. Due to the characteristics of solid drugs, this type of bottle has its own unique requirements in design and material selection to ensure the quality and safety of drugs.

Bottle mouth design


The bottle mouth design of oral solid pharmaceutical high-density polyethylene bottles is usually larger. This design helps to facilitate the filling and taking of drugs. The advantage of a large-diameter bottle mouth is that it can quickly and effectively fill the drug, and it is also convenient for users to operate when taking the drug. Compared with the bottle mouth of liquid drugs, the bottle mouth of solid drugs does not require particularly strict sealing, because solid drugs will not cause leakage problems due to the opening and closing of the bottle mouth.


Bottle wall thickness


The wall thickness requirements of oral solid pharmaceutical high-density polyethylene bottles are relatively loose. Since solid drugs are not affected by liquid pressure, the wall thickness of this bottle is mainly to provide sufficient mechanical strength and durability. Generally speaking, the wall thickness of solid pharmaceutical bottles can be adjusted according to actual needs to ensure the stability and durability of the bottle, but it does not need to be as high as the standard of liquid pharmaceutical bottles.


Transparency and Masterbatch Use


Solid drugs have relatively low transparency requirements for bottles because solid drugs are not directly affected by light. However, in some cases, pharmaceutical packaging companies may use HDPE bottles of different colors to meet market demand or enhance product recognition. For oral solid drugs, the color of the bottle usually does not affect the quality of the drug, but it can help users identify the drug more conveniently.

Design Optimization


The design of oral solid pharmaceutical HDPE bottles also takes convenience and humanization into consideration. For example, some bottles are designed with moisture-proof functions to protect the dryness of drugs during storage. In addition, the shape and size of the bottle are also optimized for easy storage and transportation.


In summary, the design and material selection of oral solid pharmaceutical HDPE bottles are mainly based on practicality and economy. Through reasonable bottle mouth design, appropriate wall thickness and color selection, this bottle not only ensures the effectiveness and safety of the drug, but also improves the convenience of use. Pharmaceutical packaging material companies can continue to innovate in these details to improve product quality and user experience.
