Pharmaceutical Manufacturing and Packing Sourcer
|
The expectations of the pharmaceutical industry with regard to primary packaging solutions for injectables have increased dramatically in recent years. Higher quality products that provide protection for valuable medications are currently in demand. Safety and ease of use for the patient, but also efficiency of the drug filling and packaging processes, are key criteria that must be met. Modern production technology, process optimisation and cost-efficiency on the one hand, health care reforms, the harmonisation of regulations and application trends on the other hand, are some of the developments that have created new challenges for manufacturing of parenteral packaging made of tubing glass.
Ampoules for High-Performance Machinability
The market for ampoules is calling for higher quality products, and several leading pharmaceutical firms that export to highly developed markets, such as Japan, have increased their requirements. The pharmaceutical market demands the highest possible safety for consumers who use ampoules, which means that process capability and process stability of the pharmaceutical company has to be optimised with top-quality ampoules.
From an end user perspective, it is important that ampoules are easy to open with maximum comfort, and more attention is now being given to the needs of new and inexperienced users. Whereas doctors and pharmacists were previously the pharmaceutical industry's primary contacts, self-medication has been playing a greater role for consumers in recent years; this has been reinforced by health care reforms in several different countries. As a result, product safety is taking on greater importance than ever before. |

Cambridge Healthtech Institute Third Annual SCOPE Summit

The program brings together six conferences under the SCOPE umbrella, which creates an opportunity for idea sharing and cross pollination amongst clinical operations professionals from different groups. Despite a shared exhibit floor where the community can share ideas, each conference remains autonomous and goes deeply into its own set of issues with its expert faculty. Each conference will feature best practice case studies and interactive discussions relevant to clinical operations experts as well as those new to the field.
