Glass flaconnage for pharmaceutical products - Recommendations for use of ISO 11418 parts 1,2,3 & 4

Scope of application

This document concerns the options which are to be selected by manufacturers and users from the following standards:
  • ISO 11418 - Containers and accessories for pharmaceutical preparations - Part 1: Drop-Dispensing glass bottles
  • ISO 11418 - Containers and accessories for pharmaceutical preparations - Part 2: Screw-neck glass bottles for syrups
  • ISO 11418 - Containers and accessories for pharmaceutical preparations - Part 3: Screw-neck glass bottles (Veral) for solid and liquid dosage forms
  • ISO 11418 - Containers and accessories for pharmaceutical preparations - Part 4: Tablet glass bottles
Recently published versions have increased the variants and options available, some of which should be identified at the outset of the design process. This would ensure consistency across production runs, suitability of the chosen closures and aid the retention of bore fitments if applicable.

This data sheet aims to guide users through the design options to be included in the quality specification documentation (“cahier des charges”) and on the drawing.
