Packing & Labeling
We pack the capsules first in Poly-Bags, and then these bags are put in "Aluminum Foil LLDP co-extruded bags". These bags are then put in corrugated box, which is lined with Thermocol (Styrofoam) on all the six inner sides of the box. Further these packed boxes are then laminated with poly film. Thus we not only take care of the temperature and humidity but also take into consideration the mis-handling that might take place during transportation.
