San Antonio, TX -- The international technology group SCHOTT announced the rebranding of its glass syringes, now known as syriQTM (previously forma 3s). The new name comes on the heels of growth in the field of prefillable syringes, and represents SCHOTT’s renewed commitment to delivering high quality pharmaceutical packaging. SCHOTT will display its syriQTM product line at the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) Annual Meeting and Exposition in San Antonio, Texas on November 11 to 14, 2013 at booth #4209. Picture No. 216990: SCHOTT emphasizes the growth prospects of its global syringe business. The company presented its new brand appearance at the American Association of Pharmaceutical Scientists (AAPS) Annual Meeting and Exposition in San Antonio, Texas.

We’ll continue this collaboration under the syriQ brand with a new vision for further innovations, especially in the area of prefillable glass syringes.”
SCHOTT has been manufacturing glass and polymer syringes in Europe and the U.S. for more than 12 years and recently doubled its production capacities for TopPac polymer syringes. The production facility in St. Gallen, Switzerland is a center of excellence, harboring a top-notch on site R&D team and maintaining a large annual production capacity to ensure security of supply.
