Product type
Vials and ampoules are small containers used primarily in the pharmaceutical industry for storing and preserving medications, vaccines, and other sensitive substances. Vials are typically made from glass or plastic and come with a rubber stopper, while ampoules are sealed glass containers that require breaking the neck to access the contents. Both types of packaging are designed to protect their contents from contamination and degradation.
| Material | Glass or plastic |
| Volume Range | 1 mL to 100 mL |
| Closure Type | Rubber stopper or crimped seal |
| Sterility | Sterile or non-sterile options available |
| Color Options | Clear, amber, or colored glass |
When selecting vials and ampoules, consider the material compatibility with the substance being stored, as well as the required volume and closure type. It's important to specify whether sterility is needed and to check for any relevant certifications, such as USP compliance. Additionally, consider the quantities you need, as bulk purchasing may affect pricing and availability.
