Based on material, the global prefilled syringes market is categorized into

• Plastic Prefilled Syringes
• Glass Prefilled Syringes

Prefilled syringe materials have 2 value additions in healthcare drug delivery: the primary packaging aspects of syringe manufacturing provides assurance that there is no untoward effect on the drug shelf life, strength and purity; and convenience in administering the appropriate amount of the medication to the patient. Glass syringes have advantages such as optical clarity in which medication volumes are read to the point as the plunger is parallel with the calibration in syringe, and possess excellent thermal and chemical resistance properties. The drawbacks associated with glass syringes are breakage, potential surface reactivity, leaching and particulate contamination. Plastic syringes made from cyclic polyolefin resin are gaining tremendous popularity among healthcare professionals. The inherent features of plastic syringes with break resistance, decreased surface reactivity, reduced drug adsorption and compatible with high and low pH drug solutions.
