Tailor-made solutions based on tubular glass

Gerresheimer makes its customer priorities its own, and we like individual challenges. The knowhow, professionalism and creativity of our product developers are available to you to optimise existing system approaches or develop completely new ones. Here we offer ourselves as a partner who can contribute options for customised glass primary packaging solutions as well as integrated drug-delivery concepts during drug development. This means you profit from our specific knowledge about the special properties of glass as a primary packaging material and about suitable surface-treatment processes. We accompany your project with life-cycle management and extensive technical documentation, and hold drug master files so that we can also support you with your product registrations.

Our facilities work at the highest technical level and to comprehensive quality standards. In parallel with innovative adjustments to our product range we also develop and refine the procedures and processes themselves. Our objectives are high glass quality combined with minimum risk of contamination. This can only be achieved by constant monitoring of the entire production process and by safe packaging procedures. For production of sterile syringes, for example, we today have a unique technology centre in which state-of-the-art WFI water processing plants and clean-room systems set the basic standards. In our technology centre for vials ongoing optimisation of our highly regarded visual inspection systems insure that constantly rising quality standards can be guaranteed. The high value input material is also manufactured in-house since of course as a vertically integrated manufacturer we also produce glass tubes ourselves. Our plants rigorously follow the rules of good manufacturing practice (cGMP) and are certified in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9001, 13485 and/or 15378. Our products comply with the European and US pharmacopoeia requirements
