Design your transdermal patches with Solventum technologies

It's no secret that skin has many layers. The same can be said for transdermal patches, which are comprised of multiple transdermal components, including backings, membranes, tapes and liners.

Our global infrastructure and dedicated personnel collaborate with an extensive worldwide network of nutraceutical and pharmaceutical developers and manufacturers to design a variety of components to protect drug formulation, ensure consistent drug release and provide integrity to your patch. 

Nutraceuticals and holistic medicine are another important market. We offer solutions designed to help manufacturers maximize accuracy, consistency and efficiency in a wide range of products. 

Together, we can help transdermal patches deliver focused ingredients. 

Common types of patches may include: 

  • Nicotine for smoking reduction and cessation aid1
  • Scopolamine to treat motion sickness1
  • Pain relief1

Nutraceuticals may include ingredients such as:

  • Vitamins
  • Caffeine
  • Essential oils

Designing transdermal materials with care

Solventum can help you design for new emerging markets

Finding the right material for your next transdermal innovation is no small feat, but we’re here to support you every step of the way. Our experts can help you select transdermal backings, membranes, tapes or liners. 

Transdermal backings

The transdermal backing is the outer layer of the patch, providing integrity, protecting the drug formulation, illustrating printed product information and sealing the membrane. When choosing a transdermal backing, consider factors such as the barrier properties, patient comfort and cosmetic appearance.

Transdermal membranes

In multi-layer and reservoir patch systems, the transdermal membrane helps control the diffusion rate of the drug into the skin. When choosing transdermal membranes, consider material composition and thickness.

Transdermal tapes

Tapes protect the patch and provide good skin adhesion during wear. Our transdermal tape components can be found in hospitals and clinics around the world.

Transdermal liners

The transdermal release liner protects the adhesive and drug formulation while also releasing consistently over the life of the product. When choosing a transdermal liner, consider adhesive and drug formulations along with release force.
