World leading formulation and design for your patient safety
Our world leading rigid needle shields benefit from Aptar Pharma’s recognized formulation and designs to meet the most stringent market requirement.
Our poly-isoprene formulation is the worldwide best-seller. The styrene butadiene rubber offers ideal chemical performance for most sensitive drugs. Our thermoplastic elastomer rigid needle shields is the only alternative to the market standard for biotech.
Protection for your most sensitive drugs
Pure Bromobutyl formulation combined with a market proven ETFE film-coating and a state-of-the-art process guarantees our lowest level of extractables & leachables. The design of our PremiumCoat® plunger stoppers are demonstrated to be compatible with both vent tube and vacuum stoppering machines, and ensure controlled functional properties for easy injection and auto-injector integration.
Guarantee dose safety and closure integrity
Our range of syringe plungers and stoppers leverage our state-of-the-art Bromobutyl for low extractables and leachables and Chlorobutyl for non-buffered/acidic drugs to ensure compatibility with the drug throughout its life cycle.
Our plunger stoppers leverage market-proven designs to ensure compatibility and optimal functionality with various pre-filled syringe format.
Package your biotech and dental drugs
Our cartridge plunger designs, and formulations enable easy gliding for accurate dosing with pens. Our market proven Bromobutyl formulation ensures optimal performance in biotech applications. We also have developed a specialized formulation for meeting the requirements of dental anesthetics applications.
Pre-filled closure solution for naked Luer and Luer Lock adapters
Our unique blended formulation combines high chemical resistance for protecting sensitive drugs and permeability for easy sterilization. Aptar Pharma’s tip caps come in various formats to promote usability, compatibility with Luer Lock adapter or PRTC-like systems to accommodate market specific requirements.
Pre-filled Syringe Components for Biotech Drugs, Vaccines and Delivery of Small Molecules
Enable your Biologics and Auto-Injector Drug Delivery
Our pure Bromobutyl formulation and PremiumCoat® ETFE-film coated plunger stoppers protect sensitive drugs from extractables & leachables. PremiumCoat® plungers are compatible with vent-tube and vacuum filling machines, display exceptional functional performance to promote auto-injectors integration and secure Container Closure Integrity even in cold-storage conditions.
Our thermoplastic elastomers and styrene butadiene rigid needle shield formulation complement the protection of your most sensitive drugs.
Unlock the Potential of your Vaccine Projects
Our versatile Bromobutyl formulation, a reference on the vaccine market, can be combined to PremiumCoat® ETFE film-coating to protect the most sensitive vaccines and ensure compatibility with high-speed vent tube filling lines.
The Chlorobutyl formulation, trusted on the market for more than 20 years, limits the generation of particles on high-speed filling lines.
Our range of rigid needle shields offer ideal machinability and provide protection for healthcare practitioners while our tip caps meet regional preference for luer formats.
Meet the Delivery Expectations for your Small Molecules and Generics
Our versatile Halobutyl syringe plunger can accommodate aggressive solvents, unbuffered solutions or acidic drug formulations.
Our designs and siliconization strategy enable efficiency on your high-speed filling.
With a large production capacity, we secure long-term supply to derisk your projects and ensure patients receive their critical dose safely.
