Veterinary Injection Bottles

Application & Areas of Use

The packaging of veterinary medicines plays an important role in protecting the contents.

The most important function of primary packaging is to ensure shelf life and maintain the stability and efficacy of the contained drugs. Material properties and the manufacturing process are crucial in this respect. To protect against spoilage and maintain drug efficacy, vaccine containers for livestock and farm animals require particularly effective barrier properties.

Features & Properties

Multi-Layer Injection Bottles: More Than an Alternative to Glass

For veterinary applications, primary packaging needs to do more than contain. High-performance plastic primary packaging can support reliable transport, storage and daily handling – while helping protect sensitive medicines throughout their shelf life.

Röchling Medical manufactures multi-layer injection bottles using co-extrusion blow molding. In this process, two or more plastics are combined in one bottle structure to achieve specific functional properties that individual materials alone cannot provide.

Break Resistance

Plastic injection bottles can help reduce the risk of breakage during transport, storage and daily handling. This can help avoid typical consequences of glass breakage, such as product loss, contamination risks, injury risks and missed treatments.

Handling and Ergonomics

Compared to glass, plastic bottles are lightweight and easy to handle. This can be especially relevant for larger fill volumes in veterinary applications, where practical handling matters in daily use.

Protection and Barrier Properties

With appropriate gas and permeation barrier properties, multi-layer bottles can help protect sensitive medicines against moisture, oxygen and UV radiation – supporting product stability and shelf life.

Sustainability Considerations

LCA studies indicate a lower global warming impact for polymer vial systems compared to glass vial systems. The actual environmental benefit depends on the full lifecycle context, including production, logistics, application and end-of-life.

Our Co-Extrusion Expertise

Material selection, layer design and controlled processing are key to meeting specific barrier and handling requirements. Depending on the formulation, tailored layer design can also support polymer protection in contact with the filled product.

Manufacturing and Quality

Our veterinary injection bottles are manufactured under controlled conditions in GMP class C and D cleanrooms. Automated inline camera controls support consistent quality throughout production.

Suitable for Veterinary Applications

Our multi-layer injection bottles are designed for use in animal health applications and can be tailored to specific customer requirements, fill volumes and product needs.
