The raw materials for producing medicinal glass bottles are in short supply, and the prices of raw m

Borosilicate glass tube in medicine is a necessary raw material for manufacturing medicinal containers such as borosilicate glass ampoules, controlled injection bottles, and controlled oral liquid bottles. Borosilicate glass tube in medicine is equivalent to a melt blown cloth in a mask, with very strict requirements for its appearance, cracks, bubble lines, stones, nodules, linear thermal expansion coefficient, boron dioxide content, tube wall thickness, straightness, and dimensional deviation. Moreover, it must obtain the "National Pharmaceutical Packaging Letter" approval.

So, how can there be a shortage of borosilicate glass tubes in medicine? How could the price of raw materials increase

It is said that this year, all countries in the world are trying to promote the vaccination of COVID-19 vaccine. In China alone, 82.846 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been vaccinated. Since COVID-19 vaccine must be loaded in medium borosilicate medical glass bottles, the supply of medium borosilicate glass tubes is in short supply. In this situation, there will naturally be a shortage of medium borosilicate glass tubes for medicine. In the case of a shortage of borosilicate glass tubes, their prices will inevitably rise.

According to relevant information, it is expected that 2 billion borosilicate glass bottles will be needed globally in the next two years. Therefore, the shortage of borosilicate glass tubes in medicine will continue. However, these domestic manufacturers will try their best to meet the needs of domestic pharmaceutical glass bottle manufacturers for borosilicate glass tubes in medicine, so that our citizens can get the opportunity to inject COVID-19 vaccine. Therefore, we don't need to worry too much about the lack of raw materials for producing medicinal glass bottles.
