In the Mereto di Tomba plant, there is an area authorized and certified by the Italian Medicines Agency (AIFA) dedicated to the production for the world market - in the same environments and plants - of drugs and food supplements based on lactic ferments.
The products are made in a 3,500 square meters site (1,000 are external). It houses 15 production rooms distributed over three floors, in strict environmental conditions in ISO8 class, with temperatures and humidity strictly controlled to ensure best-in-class quality standards and avoid microbial contamination. This division results from constant investments in cutting-edge production processes and solid collaborations, which are fundamental to developing new ideas and creating quality products and competitive solutions on the market.
The Mereto site produces two exclusive, patented multi-phase technologies: Dry-Cap and M-Cap.
They are based on a special two-phase packaging technology making it possible to enclose and at the same time separate in the same main pack, the solid component (powder) and liquid component of the product. This type of packaging is particularly well-suited to probiotic-based drugs, but it can also be used for vitamins, minerals and other micronutrients.
Whatever your product, it is essential to ensure it reaches the global market efficiently and on time. Packaging supply directly impacts time-to-market. At Mereto Plant, we specialise in a range of cosmetic and nutraceutical packaging services tailored to customer’s unique products, ensuring speed to market.
Our array of expert packaging includes:
Blister packaging (ALU-ALU, ALU-PVC)
Bottle and vial packaging
Pill jars
Ampoule packaging
Tubes
Sachets and stick packs
