SCHOTT StandardLine and TopLine Vials Setting the industry standard
BUY ONLINE NOWPharmaceutical glass vial for injectable drugs
As the most popular storage container for parenteral drugs, glass vials provide pharmaceutical companies with a safe long-term storage solution for injectable drugs. Since glass is the only material in constant contact with the drug, vials offer a limited number of potential interaction partners, as well as easy handling. SCHOTT Pharma vials convince with their dimensional precision, chemical resistance, and high inspectability. This results in a highly efficient fill-and-finish operation, optimized drug-container interaction, and effective container closure integrity (CCI).
Long-term stability for liquid and lyophilized drugs
Made using Type I Borosilicate Glass with high chemical resistance according to ISO 8362-2, SCHOTT glass vials provide long-term drug stability and can be used for a wide range of applications. These applications include:
- Storing liquid drugs from chemicals to vaccines to complex proteins
- Storing lyophilized drugs such as biologics
Our vials are produced with tight dimensional and cosmetic control according to cGMP, and are fully compliant with all current quality standards, such as Ph. Eur, USP, and CP.

SCHOTT TopLine vials are available as ready-to-use
Small batches of personalized medications and high-value pharmaceuticals often present challenges for fill-and-finish operations. Not only do they require higher quality containers, but they also require more flexibility, with frequent switching between different medications to avoid costly waste.
Available in a pre-washed and pre-sterilized ready-to-use (RTU) configuration, SCHOTT Pharma’s TopLine vials can be processed on a variety of new and existing fill-and-finish lines, keeping vials nested throughout the process (including freeze-drying).
