Nest Scientific Ready-to-Use Cartridges for ISO 11608 Injection Devices

Cartridges are sold in a singular, sterile tub of 100. Cartridges are not individually wrapped. This packaging design is intended for pharmaceutical manufacturers and compatible with most automated fill finish lines. Cartridges can also be manually filled in an ISO 5 laminar flow hood using our semi-automatic fill finish machine.

Nest Scientific cartridges are engineered for peptide and protein based injectable therapies, offering a sterile, high quality, and ready to use (RTU) solution optimized for ISO 11608 insulin pen style injection devices.

Crafted from clear Type I Borosilicate Glass with controlled hydrolytic resistance, these cartridges maintain tight dimensional tolerances to ensure precise dosing, minimal leachables, and reduced risk of breakage. The result: consistent functionality and reliable drug delivery across a wide range of biologic formulations.

Nest Scientific cartridges remain nested throughout fill finish processing, eliminating glass to glass contact.Each rack undergoes a rigorous 6 hour steam autoclave cycle for complete sterilization. Especially as compared to ethylene oxide gas which cannot sterilize the interior of the dual septa interface.

Nest Scientific tubs are dimensionally identical to SCHOTT cartriQ® Ready-to-Use Cartridge Tubs, enabling seamless integration into existing fill-finish lines with no change parts required.

This part number is for 1 tub of 100 cartridges. Stoppers are included in separate, sterile bags of 100 stoppers.

Extensive validation binder available upon request.
