cartriQ® — Cartridge for the healthcare sector

A highly accurate, high quality, sterile, ready-to-use (RTU) cartridge system to match with drug delivery devices. Part of the SCHOTT iQ® portfolio, cartriQ® is provided in proven industry standard tub and nest configuration. cartriQ® raises standards for drug delivery systems ensuring reliable, user-friendly performance and making injectable drug delivery safe and easy.

With precise dimensions, tight tolerances, and in combination with baked on silicone ensures drug stability and optimal performance with all cartridge based devices. cartriQ® answers the need for a cartridge container system that achieves high standards in a market with increasingly strict regulations. SCHOTT has decades of experience in pharmaceutical containers, and all SCHOTT expertise has been used in developing this innovative container system.

Properties

  • Ready-to-use cartridges delivered steam-sterilized
  • SCHOTT FIOLAX® CHR glass tubing
  • Baked on silicone for optimal performance
  • Established elastomer closure systems (combiseal and plungers)
  • Industry standard tub and nest packaging allow for quick and easy changeover
Chemical Resistance
• Premium surface quality that reduces drug-container interaction. 
• Cartridge made with Type I FIOLAX® borosilicate tubing that provides an excellent extractables and leachables profile.
• Plunger made with FM457 bromobuty for ultralow extractables, suitable for proteins/peptides and sensitive biologics.
• Reduced alkalinity glass for enhanced drug stability is available upon request.
Dimensions & Cosmetics
• 100% camera inspection of dimensional parameters. 
• Production process free of glass-to-glasscontact, reducing the risk of defects or glass breakage. 
• Baked-on silicone offers low particles and optimum gliding force.
• ISO 13926 compliant plunger stopper design for reliable fit for devices handling varied viscosities.
Possible Applications
•    Hormones
Many patients require regular injections of sensitive biologic drugs such as insulin, which need to be stored in highly stable containers before use. These valuable drugs also require containers that are compatible with a wide range of drug delivery systems. 
 
•    Biologics
The trend toward shifting biologic drug administration from hospitals to home settings is accelerating, supported by novel injection devices like wearable injectors. Biologic drugs are sensitive and some of them are highly viscous. cartriQ® is designed to meet the stringent requirements of biologic drug stability while enabling convenient self-administration of drugs with various injection devices.
 
•    Emergency drugs
A number of emergency medical situations such as anaphylaxis require drugs to be administered as quickly as possible. To ensure effectiveness, these medications need to remain stable in precisely measured doses and be stored in containers with high mechanical strength to withstand the stresses of rapid delivery.
Advantages
• Superior quality of SCHOTT FIOLAX® will ensure drug stability of even sensitive biologics.
• Baked-on silicone for low particles and optimal functionality with devices.
• Steam sterilization eliminates harmful residues and ensures sterility for critical areas. 
• RTU cartridges in tub and nest configuration reduce the process steps in fill-and-finish operations and enable unparalleled flexibility.
• Patented nest design avoids glass-to-glass contact and minimizes handling for low levels of wastage. 
• Pre-tested systems and documentation put your product on fast track to market.
• Tight dimensional tolerances and superior cosmetic quality to safeguard high-value drugs. 
• High mechanical strength offers lower breakage in filling and at point of use. 
• Pre-sterilized plunger stoppers delivered in a sterile format, reducing the need for in-house sterilization and streamlining fill-and-finish operations.
• Elastomers manufactured in Datwyler’s FirstLine® facility ensure high process control and batch-to-batch consistency.
• Cartridges and plunger stoppers widely used and accepted in international markets, supporting global product launches and regulatory submissions.
