Product History

The development of child-resistant packaging began in the United States during the 1960s following concerns about accidental poisoning among children.

A major milestone was the enactment of the:

Poison Prevention Packaging Act

in 1970, which led to widespread adoption of child-resistant packaging systems.

During the 1970s and 1980s, prescription vials with push-and-turn safety caps became the industry standard throughout North America.

As medical cannabis and nutraceutical markets expanded in the 2000s and 2010s, thumb tab vials gained even broader commercial applications.

Today they remain one of the most widely used pharmaceutical packaging formats in the United States and Canada.
