Vision BioPharma polymer syringes made by Gerresheimer are made with a high performance polymer called COP (Cyclic Olefin Polymer). It is suitable for use as primary packaging for sophisticated medications, especially for sensitive biologicals, biosimilars and biobetters, but also e.g. hyaluronic acid applications.
COP polymer syringes are distinguished by a high degree of break resistance and a glass-like transparency. COP releases no alkali ions, which means that the risk of a pH value shift is eliminated. Since the entire plastic syringe, including the insert-molded needle, is produced in a single step, the polymer syringes hence become free of tungsten and adhesives.
