Heparin, an injectable anticoagulant, is used post-operatively and nowadays prophylactically.

For these uses, Transcoject annually supplies about 50 Mio. syringes type 1ml long to major pharmaceutical companies. These syringes are produced on a high performance plant and dispose of a special extended plunger that inserts into the neck of the syringe body, expelling more fluid and leaving nearly no dead space volume after drug delivery.

Thereby, the active agent is fully administered, guaranteeing high dosage security.

Particularly for high performance plants, the so-called dry offset printing process was developed. This process yields a fine scale extremely rich in contrast which allows for exact drawing up of medication.

The syringe is delivered in boxes, individually blister packaged, finally sterilized. An individual print is possible on short notice.
