Child-resistant packaging is not just a regulatory checkbox — it is a critical patient safety requirement, especially for households with children under 5. The Poison Prevention Packaging Act (PPPA) in the US and equivalent regulations in India mandate CRC closures for oral liquid pharmaceuticals, vitamin supplements with high iron content, and other household chemical substances.
At Right Angle Pharmapack, we manufacture UN-certified CRC caps using a dedicated clean-room assembly line equipped with liner insertion, torque/dwell-time testing, and real-time reject sensing. This ensures every cap meets the required performance specification — not just the ones that are tested, but every single unit.
What Makes a CRC Cap Effective?
A compliant CRC cap must pass the "child-panel" (children aged 42–51 months) and "senior-adult" tests defined in ISO 8317 and BIS standards. The key mechanisms are push-and-turn (the most common for liquids) and squeeze-and-turn (common for tablets). Our 28mm and 38mm CRC caps use the push-and-turn mechanism with a precisely calibrated dwell-time specification.
