High-quality ampoules for secure storage of drugs

For more than 130 years, ampoules have been playing an important role in the widespread supply of basic medicine such as painkillers, inflammation inhibitors, and anesthetics. Around the world there is a large demand for drugs, which can be met using ampoules.

SCHOTT Pharma’s large portfolio of ampoules is both affordable and reliable, continuously improving to fulfill industry demands.

Manufactured with Type I Borosilicate Glass in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), ampoules offer high chemical resistance.

Permanent process optimization, 100 % inline dimensional control, stringent inspections of cosmetic defects, frequent employee training, and decades of pharmaceutical glass expertise ensure that SCHOTT Pharma’s ampoules maintain their high quality standards.

Available in a range of formats (1-30 ml) and forms (B, C and D) for improved filling, SCHOTT Pharma´s ampoules provide consistently high quality standards. Together with our Ampoule Academy and almost 100 years of expertise in producing ampoules, we offer knowledge and experience to deal with these challenges and improve your TCO (total cost of ownership).

To reduce breakage on the line, SCHOTT Pharma offers two solutions. The first is identifying and understanding the “pressure peaks” of the fill-and-finish line, using SmartSkin Quantifeel™ to optimize fill-and-finish line parameters.
