Clinical Packaging Services
cGMP Clinical Packaging & Trial Supply Chain Services
Experic provides end-to-end, cGMP-compliant primary and secondary clinical packaging, blinding, kitting, and cold-chain logistics for Phase I–III investigational medicinal products (IMPs) and comparators. Operating from state-of-the-art facilities in Cranbury, NJ (USA) and Kilbeggan (Ireland), we support oral solid doses, biologics, and low-dose powders using advanced Harro Höfliger equipment platforms and heavily monitored environmental controls.
Primary Clinical Packaging Capabilities: Solid Dose & Non-Sterile Formats
Experic’s primary clinical packaging services safeguard investigational formulations, including highly hygroscopic powders, liquids, and moisture-sensitive APIs, against oxygen, light, moisture, and mechanical stress. We support scalable production from Phase I clinical runs through high-volume Phase III campaigns utilizing precision-engineered barrier materials and automated filling technologies.
Primary Blister Packaging, Bottling, and Specialized Delivery Formats
Primary packaging operations encompass cold-formed (Alu-Alu) and thermo-formed blisters, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and glass bottles, and flexible multi-layer foil pouches. We also process specialized primary containers, including vials for non-sterile liquids, cartridges, and prefilled syringes.

Secondary Clinical Packaging, Medical Kitting & Device Assembly
Secondary packaging and clinical kitting operations streamline patient dosing and site administration through custom walleting, complex multi-component kit assembly, and device integration. All secondary workflows incorporate multi-language labeling, child-resistant (CR) compliance, and senior-friendly access designed to accommodate global patient populations.
Combination Product Assembly & Patient-Centric Walleting
Experic specializes in the secondary assembly of combination drug-device products, including blister card sealing and tamper-evident packaging. These workflows ensure patient compliance while strictly adhering to rigorous cGMP quality standards.
Clinical Trial Blinding, Randomization, & Comparator Strategies
Experic supports trial integrity for double-blind global studies via strict unblinded packaging workflows, matching placebo design, and comprehensive comparator blinding strategies. We execute randomization protocols for Phase I–III trials seamlessly, ensuring investigator and patient blinding without compromising the primary packaging barrier.
Our blinding methodologies utilize precise capsule-in-capsule overencapsulation, custom over-wrapping, and tamper-evident sealing to obscure IMPs, comparators, and standard-of-care co-medications from sites and patients.
