Blister Packaging in Newnan, GA
Newnan is one of Georgia's most charming historic cities and one of the fastest-growing communities in the Atlanta metro — a Coweta County city with a beautifully preserved antebellum downtown, a strong manufacturing base including Kia's Georgia plant in nearby West Point, and a growing population of Atlanta commuters and entrepreneurs who have been drawn to Newnan's exceptional quality of life. Georgia's film industry frequently uses Newnan's historic streets as a backdrop, adding a creative economy dimension. My Custom Boxes serves Newnan's historic and growing commercial community.

Why Choose Our Blister Packaging
Custom Blister Packaging | Thermoformed Retail Blister Packs with Printed Cards
Blister packaging combines a thermoformed transparent plastic cavity — the blister — with a printed paperboard backing card to create the dominant retail packaging format for consumer electronics, hardware, pharmaceuticals, toys, and health products worldwide. The format provides maximum product visibility through the clear plastic, tamper evidence through the sealed blister-to-card bond, and a large printable surface on the backing card for brand communication and retail compliance information.
Blister Pack Configurations
- Face Seal Blisters: Blister heat-sealed to the front face of the printed card only — the most common retail blister format for standard consumer products
- Full Seal Blisters: Blister sealed around the entire card perimeter — provides maximum tamper evidence and structural integrity for heavier products
- Trapped Blisters: Product trapped between two paperboard cards with the blister cavity formed in one card and the other card forming the back — no exposed plastic edges
- Clamshell Blisters: Fully enclosed hinged plastic shell — product enclosed in transparent plastic on all sides for maximum visibility and security
- Slide Blisters: Printed card slides into a channel in the plastic blister — allows card removal without destroying the blister
Thermoforming Tooling
Each unique blister cavity requires custom thermoforming tooling — an aluminum or steel mold that shapes heated plastic film into the three-dimensional cavity matching the product's dimensions. Tooling lead time is 10–14 days before production begins. Standard tooling amortizes cost over the production run; for very high volumes, steel tooling provides longer tool life than aluminum.
Why Blister Packaging Dominates Retail
Blister packaging commands retail shelf space across more product categories than any other packaging format because it solves the retail buyer's dilemma simultaneously: product visibility (the consumer sees the actual product through the clear plastic, eliminating purchase uncertainty), tamper evidence (the sealed blister-to-card bond must be visibly broken to access the product, communicating product integrity), theft deterrence (the large backing card is difficult to conceal and the sealed blister prevents individual product removal), and retail compliance (the large card surface accommodates all required retail information — barcodes, product specifications, warnings, and brand communication — within planogram dimensions).
PVC vs. PET Blister Film: Environmental Considerations
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) has been the standard blister film for decades — its excellent thermoforming characteristics, low cost, and crystal clarity make it technically ideal for retail blister applications. However, PVC contains chlorine compounds that complicate recycling and produce dioxins when incinerated. PET (polyethylene terephthalate) blister film provides comparable clarity and thermoforming performance with significantly better environmental credentials — PET is recyclable in standard PET recycling streams (resin code 1) and is produced without chlorine compounds. For brands with sustainability commitments or retailers with PVC-free packaging policies, rPET blister film provides the same performance with recycled content and recyclability credentials.

Blister Packaging in Newnan — FAQs
What is the difference between a face seal and a full seal blister?
Face seal blisters are sealed only along the blister's perimeter footprint on the front face of the backing card — the card's back panel is unattached to the blister. This is the most common and cost-effective configuration. Full seal blisters are sealed around the entire perimeter of the backing card — the blister wraps around the card edge and seals to the card back, providing more tamper evidence and structural integrity for heavier products. Full seal is recommended for products over 200g.
What is a trapped blister?
A trapped blister uses two printed paperboard cards with the thermoformed plastic cavity sandwiched between them — the product is 'trapped' between the cards with the plastic visible through a window in the front card. No plastic is exposed at the card edges, giving the package a cleaner appearance and allowing the back card to provide a full additional print panel. Trapped blisters are popular for gift items, toys, and products where complete back-panel information is required.
How long does thermoforming tooling take?
Custom thermoforming tooling production requires 10–14 business days from approved 3D product dimensions. Tooling is required for each unique blister cavity shape — if you have multiple products with different dimensions, each requires separate tooling. Tooling cost is a one-time setup cost amortized over the production run. We retain tooling for repeat orders at no additional charge.
Can blister packaging be child-resistant?
Yes. Child-resistant blister packaging uses push-through foil blisters where each individual blister cavity is covered with a foil backing that the consumer pushes the product through — requiring simultaneous alignment and pressure that young children cannot reliably execute. CR blister packs are standard in pharmaceutical retail packaging for OTC medications. We produce CR blister card assemblies certified to CPSC 16 CFR 1700.20.
