Belfast Firm Secures Orders For Its New BottleScan Product
Packaging expert Sepha Ltd has secured orders from the USA and India for its new BottleScan product, developed with research and development support from Invest Northern Ireland.
The Belfast-based company designs and manufactures high-quality equipment used to accurately detect leaks and weak seals in packaging and in making pharmaceutical blister packs.
BottleScan is the world's first tool-less, non-destructive, multi-bottle integrity tester for induction-sealed pharmaceutical bottles.
The company received almost £25,000 from Invest NI, part funded by the European Regional Development Fund, to help it develop the product.
BottleScan is the latest addition to Sepha's integrity testing product range. It has been developed in response to increasing market demand for a more advanced, technology-based integrity test for induction-sealed bottles.
Paul Kelly, Sepha's Head of Sales & Marketing, said: "The initial response to BottleScan has been excellent, with orders already received from leading pharmaceutical producers in USA and India, two of our key target markets. It is thanks to the support from Invest NI and our client-focussed approach to research and development that we have been able to identify and meet these technical requirements of our customers."
