Report Overview


Report Overview
The use of ready-to-use (RTU) or pre-sterilized / pre-treated, container-closure systems have emerged as a promising alternative to conventional primary packaging, adding significant value to streamline pharmaceutical fill / finish operations. These packaging components eliminate multiple steps in the overall fill / finish process (mainly washing, sterilizing and preparing containers), thereby, helping improve operational efficiencies in compliance to existing regulatory standards. Owing to several other benefits, RTU container-closure systems have gradually gained popularity in the pharmaceutical industry. Moreover, many drug product manufacturers and fill / finish service providers have also adopted such systems to better serve their clients.
