Pharmacy sustainability never looked so good
Sustainability is smart. With the Phill Box®, it looks good, too.
At Parcel Health, one of our favorite things to do is to turn our eco-friendly medication packaging, the Phill Box®, into a novelty item that adds joy to the pharmacy experience. Our recyclable and biodegradable paperboard is a blank canvas that gives pharmacies a lot of room to experiment with custom printing.
We can incorporate your brand colors and slogan. We can add flu shot reminders, QR codes, and compelling quotations. And thanks to our in-house design team, we can make the Phill Box® as beautiful as a luxury cosmetic or skincare product.
Call it advertising. Call it art. You can get far more mileage out of the Phill Box® than the traditional plastic vial.
The first-generation Phill Box®, released in 2021, featured no special design elements. It was simply white. But as we mastered our manufacturing process, we began to offer new options.
Last holiday season, we created two festive patterns, one a cozy, cheery red and the other a peaceful, snowy blue. Although we’d never printed seasonal Phill Boxes® before, we thought they were a fun way to lift patients’ spirits. Pharmacies loved them, and we sold out!
We shipped our first fully customized orders this winter to four pharmacies in Canada. Because each pharmacy ordered enough units, we could devote entire production runs to printing their individual logos and brand colors.
This spring, we released a new seasonal line that features a pretty, playful floral design.
The Michigan Medicine health system has been distributing custom Phill Boxes® with the University of Michigan’s distinctive block ‘M’ logo and bold school colors — patients can take their meds with pride!
Today, we have many creative ideas in the pipeline. For example, one pharmacy plans to put photos of its employees on its Phill Box®. By highlighting the people who care for its patients every day, this pharmacy will boost its rapport with customers.
The process is easy. Custom printing is available on orders that meet our minimum volume requirement. For a modest design fee, we will collaborate with your pharmacy to get the look just right.
First, our design team will create custom artwork that reflects your branding and displays any messaging and QR codes you’d like to include. This step usually takes 1 or 2 weeks to complete.
Once you have the design proof, we will make any adjustments you request. Typically, we finalize the artwork after 1 or 2 rounds of revisions. You can expect to receive your custom Phill Boxes® 6 to 8 weeks after approving the design.
While we prepare to print your Phill Box®, we will develop branded social media posts and flyers for your pharmacy. You can use these materials to inform patients that a sustainable option is coming soon!
