The manufacturing of a folding carton or a blister card is basically the same from product line to product line; however, the needs of the OTC market are very specific and require more than just printing, diecutting, and converting. Our front end and item master system is the most comprehensive item specification management system in our industry. We see every item as the combination of a specific structure, a specific graphics file, and a specific ink-set.

Every revision requires a new part number and the system manages multiple revisions in our inventory as well as the obsolescence of old tooling. When you need to insure that the correct revision is run every time, Boutwell’s systems are hard to beat. In addition, our gluers are equipped with in-line scanning of both bar codes and glue lines, further guaranteeing you the very best in product quality and reliability.The application of double-backed tape, Sensormatic and Checkpoint tags, and leaflets are all core capabilities at Boutwell; positioning us well to serve the needs of the OTC Market.

Our pharmaceutical procedures allow us to meet the most exacting control requirements while delivering you the ultimate in process economies.

Complicated structural design, design for line automation, and intricate multi-panel gluing are all hallmark capabilities which have positioned Boutwell as a leader in its field.

The additional benefit of a supplier who can deliver both folding cartons and carded heat seal packaging from one source is an added benefit to further position our claim of supply chain leadership.
