Vial

Pack Style

The vial is a widely adopted primary packaging format in the pharmaceutical industry, designed to ensure the safe containment of sterile liquid and freeze-dried products. Its versatility and compatibility with a broad range of pharmaceutical formulations make it suitable for applications ranging from injectable solutions and suspensions to highly sensitive biologics and lyophilised products.

Vial in details

Available in different materials, formats and volumes, vials can be adapted to the specific requirements of pharmaceutical manufacturing processes. Their design supports efficient handling, reliable container closure integrity and compatibility with labelling and downstream packaging operations, contributing to product identification and presentation throughout the production lifecycle. 
Supported by IMA Life’s advanced aseptic processing technologies, vial-based production benefits from precise and controlled handling across critical processing stages, including decontamination, depyrogenation, liquid or powder filling, closing, capping, external washing and labelling. The result is a reliable and scalable approach to sterile manufacturing, combining product protection, operational efficiency and sterility assurance.

IMA Technologies
for Vial

Aseptic Processing

One of the most critical areas in the global pharmaceutical industry is the aseptic manufacturing process. IMA stands at the forefront with a comprehensive portfolio of innovative technologies, designed to meet the increasingly complex needs of the sector. Our aseptic solutions are fully compliant with GMP Annex 1 and FDA regulatory requirements, offering the highest standards in contamination control and sterility assurance.

Freeze-Drying

With over 50 years of experience, IMA designs and manufactures freeze-drying systems tailored to the needs of pharmaceutical and biotech production, from laboratory-scale development to commercial manufacturing.

Labelling

Suitable for the pharmaceutical, personal care and nutraceutical markets, the IMA Life production range include a vast array of labelling machines for vials, ampoules, syringes, bottles, blow-fill-seal containers, pens, containers with irregular shapes and cartons. Supplied in stand-alone versions or as an integral part of complete packaging lines, they can apply any kind of self-adhesive labels (wrap-around, front, rear or both sides) on standard or irregularly shaped plastic, aluminium or glass containers, as well as vignette and tamper-evident sealing on both aeroplane style and reverse tuck cartons. Thanks to the configuration flexibility of the operative groups, the labelling machines can fit overprinting devices and camera vision systems to read and check data.

Non-Aseptic Processing

IMA Life provides solutions for non-sterile products processed in non-aseptic environments.  Fillers for non-aseptic products can dose countless different types of liquids. Machines dedicated to single-dose solutions and macrodosing of powders for syrup preparation complete the range. All equipment handles plastic and glass containers. Closing machines are also available, reaching unprecedented processing speeds.
