EVERIC® lyo Pharmaceutical vial designed for fogging prevention during lyophilization

Name: EVERIC® lyo
Brand: SCHOTT Pharma

Overview

Prevent fogging and improve residual emptying

Due to low stability in liquid form, over 50% of biologics are lyophilized. But fogging during freeze-drying can lead to costly rejects. In addition, vials are often overfilled to offset losses from poor residual emptying after reconstitution.

To address these challenges, EVERIC® lyo features a hydrophobic surface. This is achieved through plasma impulse chemical vapor deposition (PICVD), which forms a covalently bonded inner coating that avoids the need for siliconization, which can increase the risk of free silicone. This innovative design prevents fogging during lyophilization and improves residual emptying after reconstitution.

Made of Type I Borosilicate Glass and available in TopLine quality, these pharmaceutical glass vials offer improved lyophilization for injectable drugs thanks to their chemically uniform hydrophobic inner coating.

Ultimately, EVERIC® lyo not only minimizes fogging and improves residual emptying but also enhances patient safety and lyophilization efficiency.

Benefits

A unique combination of hydrophobic behavior and no free silicone

EVERIC® lyo is unique because of its hydrophobic inner surface, formed without the use of silicone. This is particularly beneficial since the risk of free silicone is reduced. Made of high quality Type I FIOLAX® Borosilicate Glass, EVERIC® lyo vials prevent fogging during lyophilization and offer less risk of lyo cake disruption, resulting in fewer cosmetic rejects and reduced production costs.

No fogging

Fog-free lyophilization, thanks to a hydrophobic inner surface

Less cosmetic defects

Elegant lyo cake reduces the amount of cosmetic-related rejects

No overfilling required

Improved emptying results in less residual volume to make overfilling obsolete

No risk of free silicone

Covalently bonded Si-O-C-H coating applied using PICVD technology

Applications

Improved lyophilization process for injectable drugs

EVERIC® lyo vials are designed to prevent fogging and improve residual emptying, ensuring patient safety and dosing accuracy. With vaccines often mass-produced and requiring stable storage for transport, EVERIC® lyo pharmaceutical glass vials support a seamless fill-and-finish process. Their hydrophobic inner coating reduces fogging during freeze-drying, addressing challenges that are typical for sensitive formulations such as antibody drug conjugates (ADCs), as well as a variety of other drugs.

Available in pre-washed, pre-sterilized ready-to-use (RTU) configurations, they are compatible with a wide range of fill-and-finish lines and can remain nested throughout the whole process, including freeze-drying.
