Presently, more than 150 pre-sterilized / RTU primary packaging systems, including cartridges, syringes and vials, as well as their respective closure systems are available worldwide. Majority (50%) of the pre-sterilized / RTU primary packaging systems are closures, followed by containers (34%) and container-closure systems (16%). It is worth highlighting that, of the total, 54 closures are suitable for use with vials, 19 are suitable for use with syringes and the remaining 5 are compatible with cartridges.
Amongst the primary packaging containers, vials and syringes emerged as the most common types of pre-sterilized / RTU containers manufactured by stakeholders engaged in this domain. This can be attributed to the fact that these containers are the most suitable for packaging of small volume of therapeutics, such as biologics, cell therapies, small molecules, vaccines and other potent products.

Further, glass emerged as the most preferred fabrication material used for pre-sterilized / RTU containers. Of these, majority (83%) of the containers are made of type I borosilicate glass, followed by those fabricated using type II treated soda-lime glass (10%) and type III soda-lime glass (7%). This is followed by pre-sterilized / RTU containers fabricated using plastic (29%), primarily cyclic olefin polymer. Examples include (in alphabetical order) ClearVial (MedicoPack), Daikyo Crystal Zenith Insert Needle Syringe Systems (Daikyo Seiko), Daikyo Crystal Zenith Ready to Use Vials (Daikyo Seiko) and SCHOTT TopPac sensitive (SCHOTT).
Sterilization of primary packaging systems is considered to be an essential step in the overall healthcare manufacturing process as it deactivates various forms of contaminating agents (particularly referring to bacteria, fungi, protozoa and viruses). Majority (43%) of the pre-sterilized / RTU containers are sterilized using ethylene oxide, followed by those employing steam sterilization (34%).
Presently, close to 50 companies claim to be actively involved in the manufacturing of pre-sterilized / RTU primary packaging systems. The market landscape is highly fragmented, featuring a mix of small (less than 50 employees, 17%), mid-sized (51-500 employees, 37%), large (501-1,000 employees, 2%) and very large (more than 1,000 employees, 44%) companies. The pre-sterilized / RTU packaging manufacturers market is fragmented, featuring the presence of established players as well as new entrants, which are well distributed across different geographical regions. Examples of established players include (in decreasing order of experience) Gerresheimer (1864), Sartorius (1870), SCHOTT (1884), DWK Life Sciences (1887), SGD Pharma (1896) and Becton, Dickinson and Company (1897).
