New product design contest on desall.com: Bormioli Pharma and Desall invite you to revolutionise current child-resistant closure systems for medication containers by leveraging the power of biometric recognition solutions.

At Bormioli Pharma, we design and manufacture pharmaceutical packaging systems that reach millions of patients worldwide every year. With 9 factories across Europe and over 1,400 dedicated employees, we proudly distribute our products to more than 100 countries.

We see ourselves as a “start-up” with over a century of experience, originating from a historic industrial background and becoming an independent company in 2017. This unique position allows us to be both stable and dynamic. In recent years, we have consistently invested in enhancing our production capabilities, acquiring new businesses, and, most importantly, driving growth through innovation.

Embracing this spirit, we have developed our own Open Innovation model, a system that promotes skill-sharing and external collaboration in our processes. We firmly believe that collaboration fuels change and that fresh ideas have the power to improve people’s lives.

What we are looking for

Bormioli Pharma is seeking a new closure system to safeguard medications at home and limit their use exclusively to the prescribed patients. The so-called “child-resistant caps” (CRC) or “child-proof caps” effectively prevent medication packaging from being opened by children, thereby avoiding accidental ingestion of medicinal substances. Currently, CRC caps utilise a system that necessitates pushing the closure downwards while simultaneously rotating it anti-clockwise.

However, CRC caps exhibit several drawbacks: they pose difficulty for the elderly or those unable to exert sufficient force, are prone to tampering, and lack smart features. The integration of novel identity recognition technologies with Internet of Things (IoT) solutions could significantly revolutionise the approach to tackling this safety issue.

Guidelines

To ensure the successful implementation of your proposals, please consider the following guidelines:

Product Type

You are invited to submit innovative concepts, objects, shapes, and mechanisms for a CRC (Child-Resistant Closure) system for medication containers that incorporate advanced biometric recognition systems.The closure system must ensure that the container cannot be opened, particularly by children, without proper activation of the electromechanical component associated with patient identification. Otherwise, the container will remain effectively tamper-proof.

The electromechanical component can either be integrated into the new closure system or housed within an accessory that can be mounted onto an existing closure (refer to the downloadable Material files). The entire system must be compatible with an existing Bormioli container (see the “Dimensions” section and downloadable Material files).

The product should be easily portable and operable both via a smartphone app connected to the proposed solution and without the use of a smartphone.

The closure system may also track the number and timing of openings to provide information regarding the patient’s adherence to their medication regimen.

While optional, the design of an app to accompany the device is welcome (not required, but a nice-to-have feature).

Additional suggestions for enhancing the functionality of the closure system and app are also appreciated.

Target and usage

The product is intended for personal and independent use by patients and non-professional users in various daily routine contexts, such as home, work, and travel. It should also be suitable for individuals with disabilities (e.g., visual impairment or motor difficulties in limbs or hands). Therefore, inclusivity is crucial in selecting appropriate solutions.

Aesthetics and shapes

The product should feature a minimalistic and modern design, incorporating curved and gentle contours while avoiding sharp and angular forms.

Inspiration for the style can be drawn from sectors beyond medical, such as aerospace. The product should convey and ensure reliability, robustness, trust, safety, and ease of use.

Colour

For guidance on colour choices, refer to Bormioli Pharma’s corporate visual identity.

Logo

The company logo must be displayed on the product, and it can be found in the downloadable Material files.

Dimensions

The medication stored in this type of container, either in liquid or solid form (powder or pills), is typically marketed in containers of varying capacities (from 50 ml to 300 ml) and mouth sizes (28mm or 35mm). For this contest, the product’s size should be based on the sample containers provided in the downloadable Material files.

Production technologies and materials

The primary production method permitted for the dispenser is plastic injection moulding. The use of medical-grade rubber or silicone is allowed. All surfaces in contact with the medication must be made from plastic materials. Matte finishes are preferred, as they facilitate the handling of the opening mechanism.Required materials
