Global Specialty Glass Maker Starts High-Precision Tubing Production for Injectable Biologics in India
A global specialty glass manufacturer has commenced local production of high-precision glass tubing for syringes and cartridges at its facility in India, marking the first such manufacturing in the country. This expansion aims to meet increasing demand for injectable biologics used in diabetes and weight management, supporting pharmaceutical self-reliance under a national initiative. The production technology was transferred from the company's German operations, ensuring high-quality standards with tight tolerances critical for drug delivery systems. The move also enhances supply chain stability for primary pharmaceutical packaging in India and Asia, leveraging the country's growing pharmaceutical industry and regulatory environment. This development reflects a strategic investment to bolster local manufacturing capabilities and contribute to economic growth while maintaining zero-defect quality through advanced monitoring systems.
