West is excited to announce an addition to its NovaPure® product line — NovaPure 3mL Cartridge components, which include plunger and seal components specifically designed to ensure consistency of delivery for higher-volume injectable drug delivery systems. The components were designed to address specific issues and challenges the pharmaceutical industry faces in bringing innovative injectable drug products to market.
There is a trend in drug development, especially for biologics, to evaluate higher injection volumes and viscosities. This presents a unique challenge to companies as they assess primary packaging component technologies.
The cartridge has been used as the primary container for the insulin and dental markets for many years. Because the cartridge is a proven container, many companies are evaluating new drug products such as biologics in cartridges to address requirements for larger volume injections.
Historically, cartridge-based delivery systems would leverage the pen injector, but recently, novel devices have been developed with cartridges as primary containers for wearable injectors and auto-injectors. The challenge is that component technologies need to evolve to meet the needs of these new cartridge-based injector systems.
Introducing NovaPure 3mL Cartridge Components
West is excited to launch an addition to its NovaPure product line — NovaPure 3mL Cartridge components. These new components are specifically designed for 3mL cartridges prevalent in pen injectors and other drug delivery devices. They incorporate West’s premium quality enhancements:
With these enhancements, NovaPure 3mL Cartridge components directly address concerns and needs expressed by our customers, making them an ideal choice for sensitive biologic drugs coming to market.Learn more about NovaPure 3mL Cartridge components here.

Globally, the market for biologic drugs is growing significantly, due to their proven ability to treat major chronic diseases, in particular those found among an increasingly aging population. Cartridge systems are very important in delivering these biologic drugs; they can be used in autoinjectors, pen injectors, and wearable devices. Since biologics drugs are very sensitive, they require highest-quality cartridge components.
<strong>NovaPure® Components Overview</strong><br /><em>By leveraging nearly 100 years of pharmaceutical packaging knowledge and implementing Quality by Design principles, West has developed the continuously improving NovaPure® elastomer portfolio which can be ideal for all drug product phases.</em>
As drug development continues to evolve, further advances in delivery technologies will help to refine the overall drug delivery system, from improvements to safety and performance of delivery devices, to primary containers with consistent and higher-quality components.<br />
An enormous growth trend is being observed in the market for biologic drugs; they are being employed ever more frequently as treatments for chronic issues such as cancer and autoimmune diseases. This growth is reflected by the number of companies involved (established and emerging), and in the capital investment for manufacturing facilities for both biologics and biosimilars. Companies must apply a holistic approach to bringing a biologic drug to market.
Component processing is a source of risk and variability, especially for loose particulate and silicone oil that can compromise quality, putting patients at risk. To simplify drug development and streamline manufacturing, pharmaceutical companies can select cartridge plungers and lined seals in a ready-to-use format.
