For a long time, humanity has used aluminium for making cooking vessels and there are no cases of poisoning from aluminium. The metal is highly resistant to corrosion and can withstand changes in humidity and temperature. The anti-permeable quality of aluminium makes it efficient for packaging. It enables the packaging to keep out ultraviolet light, water vapour, oils, fats, oxygen and microorganisms.
Aluminium is used to make cookware for its non-toxic qualities. This metal keeps out most bacteria, doesn’t change the chemical composition of the product it holds, plus it never infuses its own taste into the product. Aluminium’s quality to keep the product unaltered and keeping out all light and heat makes it the perfect material to package pharmaceutical products. This is why it is used in most blister packaging and alu-alu blister machines to increase the shelf life of pills, capsules and effervescent tablets.
