MULTI-LAYER STRIP: THE FINAL FRONTIER IN SINGLE-DOSE
Innovative technology developed by Lameplast Group enables the use of different plastics within a single-dose pack. For when one layer is just not enough.
Glass, Glam, Soft touch, Steam-proof, Total-block, Eco: this is the new team of multi-layer strips developed by Lameplast Group, at the very cutting edge of single-dose containers. After several years’ research, our R&D labs are finally able to exploit different plastics (including polyethylene and polypropylene) and combine them with other plastic polymers.

The multi-layer opens interesting new opportunities for displaying and protecting pharmaceutical products, cosmetics and medical devices. Unlike conventional single-layer strips, multi-layer packs have an outer layer - and an intermediate one if necessary - in addition to the inner layer in contact with the product. Each layer can be chosen based on specific marketing requirements, for example to increase barrier properties, to improve single-dose compressibility or simply to play with the colours without interfering with the contents.

Currently available in 1 ml and 3 ml non-reclosable strips of 5 single-dose, the new Lameplast containers are suitable for containing any type of product, liquids, creams or gels. The shape of the single-dose and the thickness of the layers can be further customised. Production is carried out in a class 100,000 (particles/ft³) at rest - 3,520,000 (particles/m³) in operational clean room, ISO 8 (in accordance with UNI-EN-ISO 14644-1). Rigorous checks are conducted throughout the process to ensure the customary level of quality multiplied over three layers. 

Six different possibilities for storing and displaying your product
- Glass: highly transparent to enhance the contents.
- Glam: customisable with standard or fashion colours (colour applied to outer layer only to prevent contact with the product).
- Soft touch: ultra-soft and pleasing to touch, easily compressed for total emptying of contents.
- Steam-proof: made from materials resistant to autoclave sterilisation (121°C for 20 minutes), without compromising the compressibility of the single-dose.
- Total-block: designed for products requiring a high level of protection. Excellent barrier against water vapour and gasses: a valid alternative to aluminium pouches.
- Eco: strips with reduced environmental impact designed for natural or organic products. Made with an outer layer of recycled plastic and an inner layer of top quality virgin PE in contact with the product; matt colour on outer layer for attractive aesthetic effect.

Lameplastgroup has joined the Enzo Ferrari House Foundation and Museum in Modena, Italy
Opening of Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari, Saturday 10th March
The project of the Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari of Modena has entered the home straight and its public inauguration has been set for 10 March 2012.

The museum complex started from the restoration of the house in which Enzo Ferrrari was born in Modena in 1898, and that has preserved through the years both the living quarters and the workshop. A new building has been added to this in the form of a yellow aluminium “bonnet” whose colour is the symbol of the city of Modena and the colour chosen by Enzo Ferrari as the background to the Prancing Horse, the trademark of the company that bears his name.

The Museo Casa Enzo Ferrari is a prestigious work of contemporary architecture that carries the signature of Future Systems of London, formerly headed by the great architect Jan Kaplicky. For the city of Modena Enzo Ferrari is an international icon. Passion and creativity, research, innovation, courage and challenges; these are the key words that emerge from his life and that are at the root of the Myth who made Modena and Maranello capitals of a dream come true.

The LameplastGroup, to celebrate the great prestige of this international icon decided to join the Foundation Enzo Ferrari and its logo was placed permanently at the entrance of the museum house.

The Enzo Ferrari House Museum is located in Via Paolo Ferrari, 85, in Modena, Italy.
