The packaging of veterinary medicines plays an important role in protecting the contents. The most important function of primary packaging is to ensure shelf life and maintain the stability and efficacy of the contained drugs. Material properties and the manufacturing process are crucial in this respect. To protect against spoilage and maintain drug efficacy, vaccine containers for livestock and farm animals require particularly effective barrier properties.
For superior barrier properties, we manufacture plastic injection vials for the veterinary market in multiple layers, using the co-extrusion blow molding process.
Two or more different plastics are joined together in this process. Combined, they exhibit properties that they do not have when processed individually. Depending on the material combination, they provide an appropriate gas and permeation barrier that effectively protects the vial contents from external influences such as moisture, oxygen or UV radiation. The high-quality medications contained are thus protected and their shelf life is extended.
Vaccine vials made of plastic are also lightweight and unbreakable. This is particularly advantageous in the field of veterinary medicine, where large-volume containers are used more frequently.
The standards for veterinary medicinal products are no less critical than those for human pharmaceuticals. With our high-standard cleanroom concepts and many years of experience in the animal health market, we meet our customers’ requirements for low-germ, functional, high-quality, and thus safe, primary packaging.
