SCHOTT Pharma Increases Syringe Nest Capacity by 60%
Pharmaceutical manufacturers around the world are facing increased regulatory pressure to ensure the highest levels of cleanliness, sterility, and particle control. The use of pre-sterilized RTU containment solutions has helped to ease this burden, and pharmaceutical packaging manufacturers have been stepping up to offer practical solutions suitable for high-speed, large-scale drug production.
RTU containers are often supplied in a nest format, which supports automated filling on both small and large aseptic filling and capping machinery. These pre-sterilized components mitigate risk for the manufacturer and offer a reduction in processing costs.
What have we been doing?
We’re proud of the practical steps we’ve already taken to make a positive difference. These include installing 1,007 solar panels across our buildings to support renewable energy generation, achieving annual water savings of 144,000 litres, recycling more than 95% of our cardboard waste, and protecting 12.33 acres of woodland.
These achievements demonstrate how our commitment to sustainability translates into meaningful action. We know there is always more to do, but we believe that making measurable improvements and continuing to challenge ourselves are essential to creating lasting change.

Being a B Corp™ means being part of a movement that believes business can be a force for good, and we’re proud to play our part.

We remain committed to building on the progress we’ve already made and continually finding new ways to reduce our environmental impact, support our people and make responsible business decisions.
Looking ahead, our priorities include further reducing our greenhouse gas emissions, expanding our renewable energy generation, continuing our water conservation initiatives and enhancing our biodiversity programmes to help protect and support the natural environment.
We’re also committed to strengthening employee engagement in sustainability, ensuring that our people continue to play an active role in shaping a more responsible future for our business.
