Braille on pharma packaging — EN 15823 / EN 16679 compliant.

Article 56a of Directive 2001/83/EC requires the product name on EU outer packaging to be expressed in Braille. Alnexia produces Marburg Medium Braille artwork that conforms to EN 15823 (dimensions) and EN 16679 (tamper-evident features), and reads cleanly in production.
