TSD has once again proven it is the leader in prescription packaging products
with the introduction of the Tri Maxx® Container/Closure/Label System. Tri
Maxx® is the most innovative system to be introduced to the pharmaceutical
market since congress mandated the use of child resistant caps in 1972. The
Tri Maxx® system is the shape of things to come.
Unique Triangular Shape
The unique Patented triangular shape of the Tri Maxx® vial provides more space for
dosage and refill information. The flat panel design allows the customer to read
the instructions without having to rotate the bottle. A larger font size can
be used that is also easier to read.
Easier State and Federal Compliance
Tri Maxx® is the easy solution for compliance with FDA side effects and
warnings requirements. These messages can be easily grouped on one panel in
larger print to prevent accidental misuse of the medication.
In addition, the vial is manufactured using Tri State’s unique dual resin capabilities, which means it is available in polypropylene or universally recyclable PET resin from FDA approved post consumer materials reducing dependence on precious natural resources and protecting the environment.
Extra benefits of the flat panel label are that it is easier to read. We have divided the information in a logical two-panel format, which allows better label adherence and larger fonts that are easier to read and understand.
Patent Pending Third Panel Marketing System
An online marketing program uses the third flat panel of the TriMaxx® container as a "personal billboard" for custom messages that will be seen dozens of times by every customer - every time they take their medication. The third panel labels are professionally designed for you by our own in-house graphics staff, and can range from healthcare related topics to in-store promotions. Educate your customers about your unique products, programs and services, and use the "Power of the Panel" to make the vial work for you, instead of you working for the vial. Best of all, these panels are provided FREE of charge (some restrictions apply), and can be changed quickly and constantly to allow you to customize your panels for seasonal promotions, holidays, flu shots and immunizations, etc. With the TriMaxx® design, you can use the very prescription itself to communicate with every customer, long after they have left your store - and do it for FREE. There is no other program like this anywhere, and it turns your vials from an expense, a cost - to an asset, a business building tool. Here is what actual TriMaxx customers have to say about the system:
"Our older customers love the easier to hold shape of the vial. Our
younger customers love that it is a truly recycled product. I love
that the vial only comes in three sizes and one lid. Stocking is
now a breeze. Also, having a single auxiliary label is a
tremendous time saver. I also like TriMaxx’s® versatile label page
which includes a label for bottles, tubes, etc. keeping us from
wasting labels."
Neil Yant - Evans Pharmacy, Odessa, TX
"While looking for new marketing ideas, we were introduced to
the TriMaxx® system from Tri State and felt it was just what we
were looking for. The vial is cost effective, has an exciting design,
and the third panel has endless marketing potential, as it is
tailored to our needs. The TriMaxx® is a perfect partner to our
new low-price generic program because the vial accommodates
the larger day supplies and really grabs the customer’s attention
with its distinct design and brightly colored third panel. In
addition to the vial, we were provided with attractive,
professionally-made banners that describe the new vial and our
generic program. Customer feedback has been extremely
positive, and we are excited to start designing our next marketing
panel.
The holiday panels that Brandi has designed for me have been a
huge hit, the customers love them and the staff gets a kick out of
them too. We're working on a St. Pat's design as we speak."
Katie Litmer Allen - Walton Pharmacy, Walton, KY
"Our patients really love how the vial fits in their hands
and that it is more recyclable. We love the fact that we
get more advertising out the door every day! We have
had patients sign up for some of our clinical programs
just because of the 3rd panel! You can’t beat quality
vials, free toner, free labels, and free advertising!
Thanks Tri-State!"
Joe McKamey - Marcrom’s Pharmacy, Manchester, TN
"I want to let you know the TriMaxx® Vials are great. With the size of the
vials and the clear plastic it makes checking prescriptions much
easier. Also, the different color caps are useful in that we use them to
differentiate different classes of medication contained in them. They
also could be used to distinguish between different family member’s
medications. Using the 3 panel labels, we are able to get more
information including the required 800 number on the label as well
as an additional label for advertising. Patient acceptance has been
excellent with few if any complaints.
In summary, a great and versatile vial."
Mike Carder - Cherokee Pharmacy and Medical Supply, Cleveland, TN
"Brandy, Hello, I just wanted to let your team at TriState know how happy I am
about the 3rd panel program. One panel we designed recently was our info panel
describing our new app for Android and iPhone users. I have had the greatest
amount of positive feedback from our customers on this 3rd panel. More so than
on any other. It has also helped to decrease phone traffic and increase noticably
our amount of web users accessing our system via their smart phone and refilling
their Rxs. I have sent a pic of that 3rd panel to other customers of yours that
also use Computer RX (Reeves Sain, Marcroms, and Spencer Drugs) so that they can
begin using it as well. Please feel free to use that 3rd panel as an example to
anybody that needs it. Thanks,"
Chad Mills - Mills Family Pharmacy, Murfreesboro, TN
"This panel has been a great tool. By using the QR codes, we feel we’ve
expanded the potential of the 3rd panel because it becomes a teaser for our
patients. The codes allow us to put enough information on the panel to get
our patients attention, have them scan the code, and their smart phones
will lead them to the website where the rest of the information they need is
at. They also can scan the code to get our refill app for iphones. The codes
make it easier for patients in that we don’t have to include a lot of text on
the panel, which is only so large to begin with, to get our point across. The
codes do all the work!"
