SPOUTED POUCH
improves ease and convenience
Zydus Lifesciences Ltd., a global
innovation-driven lifesciences
company, and SIG, entered into an
agreement to pioneer packaging of
liquid cough and cold medication
in single-serve spouted pouches
featuring the tethered spout
solution SIG StrawCap 30 Linked
and the SIG Motion Servo 3.2
filling technology. This launch
marks a significant advancement
in pharmaceutical packaging,
delivering precisely dosed
medicine, improved hygiene, and
reduced product waste.

Abdelghany Eladib, President &
General Manager, India, Middle
East and Africa at SIG: “We are
proud to be taking this step
together with Zydus, bringing
to market an innovation with
substantial potential in the
pharmaceutical sector. Single-
serve spouted pouches for
pre-portioned pharmaceuticals,
such as cough syrup, position us
as frontrunners in the industry
and represent a significant
advancement in both patient
comfort and safety.”
The new packaging solution for
Zydus’ “Deriphyllin CoughGo”
enables 5ml and 10ml mini-
portions of ready-to-consume
medicine in spouted pouches, also
known as siplets. Traditionally,
cough medications are offered in
multi-serve bottles, where precise
dosing is often difficult or leads
to product waste when unused
medicine expires before the
packaging is emptied. Zydus’ move
to single-serve spouted pouches
directly addresses these issues
by offering convenient, portable,
and unbreakable alternative,
where a precise dosage is
delivered in the pouch.

for patients. No spoons, syringes,
or other tools are required,
making this solution ideal for use
on the go.
