Simplifying fill + finish

SCHOTT iQ® reduces the traditional filling process. Washing and siliconization machines and heat tunnels are no longer needed as the ready-to-use containers already come pre-sterilized. Standardized tub formats also allow for quick and easy changeover between different container formats, which can all be filled on a single filling line.

Product variants

Available variants within the SCHOTT iQ® platform are adaptiQ®, syriQ® and cartriQ®, which are all packed in standardized tubs. These products can also be adapted and customized according to your specific needs.
