From syringes and device housings to blood and fluid delivery and dose packaging, custom injection molded products are abound in the pharmaceutical industry.
For decades, plastics have been available for making products for use in the pharmaceutical industry. Their longevity and popularity reflect the value of using plastics for such uses, replacing older materials such as metal.
Weighing less than metal but just as strong in many cases, plastics can provide the same strength with the benefit of a lighter, equally durable product.
Plastics can be molded with the same or greater precision as metal to accommodate the precise tolerances required by some pharmaceutical applications.
Source material, color, and finish can all be easily and specifically designed to provide an exact and desired result. Specific plastics can be adjusted for flexibility, heat-resistance, and other necessary qualities.
Plastic manufacturing is generally less labor-intensive, raw materials are generally cheaper to purchase, and the lighter weight of plastic parts will result in less expensive shipping and logistics costs.
Plastics offer numerous approaches to finishing, from embossed text and measuring markings to color variations and assembly, all requiring less labor than equivalent processes with metal. Packaging and fulfillment can also be provided to provide concept-to-delivery results.
Countless pharmaceutical products are made with plastics today, taking advantage of the flexibility, durability, light weight, and convenience plastics provide. Pharmaceutical products manufactured with plastic include:
Produced in accordance with FDA and USP regulations, plastics for the pharmaceutical industry must meet high standards for quality and safety.
