Unicep, a specialist in liquid and gel contract manufacturing and packaging, has acquired a high-speed single-use applicator line to support the ongoing need for point-of-use delivery systems. This latest addition to Unicep’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility complements its existing portfolio of unit dose blow-fill-seal dispensers.

“This announcement is another demonstration of Unicep’s commitment to providing our customers with new and innovative options to satisfy their unit dose packaging needs,” said Paul Knight, VP of engineering at Unicep.  “With this addition, we are able to offer our customers world-class consumer product capability producing hundreds of millions in annual SwabDose units.”

Within the SwabDose unit casing, an applicator, such as a swab, is saturated with liquid, gel, or cream products for one-time-use topical applications. Consumers can apply products in a single, sanitary premeasured step.
