Tubular glass vials are derived from a pristine engineered glass tube raw material with a specific glass chemistry and typically combined with a rubber stopper and aluminum seal to complete the package. Choosing the right glass tubing for a vial application is vital in the pharmaceutical industry, where safety, purity, and stability are critical. Key considerations include chemical durability, surface quality, dimensional consistency, and regulatory compliance.
