SCHOTT Pharma Syringes Prefillable pharmaceutical systems for drug delivery and long-term storage
contact usSafe, simple, and reliable drug storage and injection
Whether made of glass or an advanced polymer, SCHOTT Pharma’s prefillable syringes (PFS) not only offer a highly stable, long-term storage solution for drugs, but also a safe and convenient delivery system for patients and clinicians. Since less manual steps are required when using a PFS compared to conventional packaging, the risk of medical errors and infections is considerably reduced. This plays a vital role in the safety of health care professionals and patients, with the use of a single injection system significantly reducing drug waste.Advanced materials for reliable performance
SCHOTT Pharma´s syringes are made of two different but equally reliable materials:
- syriQ® is made of Type I Borosilicate Glass – the gold standard for PFS. This syringe offers strong barrier properties, reliable functionality, a known regulatory path, and a variety of options for multi-sourcing components and raw materials, as well as high compatibility with a range of fill-and-finish systems.
- SCHOTT TOPPAC® is made of an advanced COC polymer, a relatively new material that’s gaining importance as an alternative to glass. Polymer PFS are inert, light, transparent, and offer a reduced risk of breakage, with the option of larger syringe volumes and an integrated Luer Lock Adapter (LLA).
Each syringe type provides a verified system for safe functionality, with both materials having key strengths and physical properties. Ultimately, the intended use should guide the decision as to which type is more appropriate.
syriQ®
With its proven container closure integrity, excellent gliding performance, and reliable functionality, syriQ® is ideal for storing and injecting a broad range of vaccines, from standard to emerging drug models, down to -50 °C. An extensive range of options, including the proven syriQ® Rigid Cap (SRC) closure system, allows syriQ® glass PFS to be perfectly tailored to individual vaccine requirements.
syriQ BioPure®
With a focus on patient comfort, safe and easy drug administration, and high functionality, syriQ BioPure® glass PFS are the ideal solution for storing and administering highly sensitive drugs such as complex biologics. Low, uniform silicone levels and tight dimensional specifications support consistent gliding forces and injection times, making syriQ BioPure® syringes highly suitable for autoinjector and homecare use.
syriQ BioPure® silicone-free
SCHOTT Pharma’s syriQ BioPure® silicone-free glass PFS feature a syringe barrel and plunger free of silicone, making them the ideal solution for silicone-sensitive biologics. Increased by the absence of silicone oil, the proven quality level of syriQ BioPure® opens up new possibilities for the storage and administration of silicone-sensitive drugs in prefillable syringes, saving time for clinicians and improving safety for patients.
SCHOTT TOPPAC®
Available in a variety of formats, SCHOTT TOPPAC® syringes feature a highly advanced, break-resistant COC material. Along with our broad, cross-applicational expertise and technical support, these syringes provide the solution that is right for you and those who matter the most: your patients.
SCHOTT TOPPAC® infuse
SCHOTT TOPPAC® infuse syringes ensure that infusion therapy is significantly safer and simpler. With PFS, patients always get the right concentration of the right drug at the right dose, with the cleverly redesigned Luer Lock Adapter easily connecting to all available systems to save time when it’s most precious.
SCHOTT TOPPAC® cosmetic
SCHOTT TOPPAC® cosmetic PFS have been specially designed to make aesthetic applications as painless and simple as possible for both doctors and patients. Optimal grip and glide mean more accuracy, less discomfort, and results that speak for themselves.
SCHOTT TOPPAC® freeze
When the temperature is extremely low, the requirements are very high. The prefillable polymer syringe SCHOTT TOPPAC® freeze makes sure patients are cared for by supporting the transport and application of deep-cold medicine.
SCHOTT TOPPAC® sensitive
In certain situations, extra care and vigilance are essential. SCHOTT TOPPAC® sensitive keeps biologics and sensitive drugs stable, and thanks to extremely stringent production processes, patients will always receive safe and effective medical treatment.
SCHOTT TOPPAC® unique
With an increase in self-injection devices, high-volume biologics, and home care, there is a rise in demand for medical wearables and self-care devices. SCHOTT TOPPAC® unique offers the ability to individualize your polymer containers and maximize your design freedom.
Ready-to-use syringes for efficient high speed fill-and-finish
To ensure an efficient fill-and-finish process, SCHOTT Pharma´s syringes are available in a ready-to-use (RTU) standard nest and tub configuration
- SCHOTT Pharma’s RTU syringes are produced in a cleanroom environment to ensure industry-leading low particle levels.
- Our syringes are packaged in an industry-standard tub and nest configuration with pre-sterilized syringes for simple, high speed filling.
- Our RTU syringes are made with SCHOTT FIOLAX® glass tubing or a high quality Cyclic Olefin Copolymer (COC).
- As part of the SCHOTT iQ® platform, syriQ® offers easy integration into existing filling lines to simplify changeovers.
Syringe systems that stay one step ahead of the pharma industry
The changing dynamics of the global pharma industry are creating an increased demand for drug delivery systems that are patient-friendly and cost-effective. An increase in biologics demands solutions that are safe for highly sensitive medication, while the movement from hospital to home care requires new systems with a wide compatibility range.
Combining an injection device and a storage container, SCHOTT Pharma’s prefillable glass and COC polymer syringes provide a variety of benefits, including patient compliance, minimal contamination, and the promotion of safe injections. In addition, we offer 360° support from a single source, including technical consulting plus quality and compliance statements, as well as a range of analytical services.
