Sterile RTU Glass Cartridges for Pen Injector Systems

LINUO’s RTU glass cartridges provide a ready-to-use sterile packaging solution for pen injector drugs, biologics, vaccines, aesthetic injectables and high-value innovative formulations. Each cartridge is pre-processed through controlled washing, depyrogenation, optional siliconization, nesting, AI inspection, double sterile barrier packaging and terminal ETO sterilization, enabling direct loading into automated aseptic filling lines.

Compared with conventional bulk cartridges, RTU cartridges help pharmaceutical manufacturers bypass in-house washing, siliconization, depyrogenation and sterilization preparation. This reduces CAPEX investment in WFI systems and depyrogenation tunnels, saves cleanroom floor space, lowers maintenance pressure and improves filling-line efficiency.

LINUO provides both standard RTU cartridges for liquid formulations and innovative dual-chamber RTU cartridges for “powder + solvent” combinations, supporting customers from technical drawing confirmation and sample validation to stable mass production.

Why Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Choose Linuo RTU Cartridges

Plug-and-Play Filling Efficiency

RTU cartridges are supplied washing-free, depyrogenation-free and pre-sterilized, allowing customers to reduce internal preparation steps and move directly toward aseptic filling operations.
Extreme Cost & Space Savings

By eliminating the need for in-house WFI washing systems, depyrogenation tunnels and additional sterilization preparation, RTU cartridges help reduce CAPEX, cleanroom floor space and long-term maintenance costs.
Zero Breakage Risk

Independent cavity suspension and non-contact handling help prevent glass-to-glass collision during transport, decrating and filling-line loading, reducing breakage risk before production.
Contamination-Free Sterile Transfer

Clean-peel technology and Tyvek® double breathing bags are designed to prevent fiber or particle shedding into the Grade A sterile zone, supporting clean and controlled aseptic transfer.
Zero Downtime Direct-to-Filling

Standardized Nest & Tub formats are designed to match mainstream automated filling machinery, helping customers reduce adjustment time and support fast transition into production.
Smart ETO Sterilization Control

ETO sterilization is managed through controlled temperature, humidity, concentration, time, leak monitoring and safe-release logic, supporting a stable sterile barrier and reliable batch release.
