  • Polymer barrel construction
    PLAJEX ™ ready-to-fill syringes feature injection-molded cyclic olefin polymer (COP) barrels, providing strength and clarity1, with tungsten-free construction resulting in lower extractables1.
  • Range of configurations
    Needle-integrated configurations include Staked (straight) needle and Tapered needle options alongside needle-free Luer Lock configurations. PLAJEX™ needle-integrated systems are manufactured without adhesives using laser welding or insert molding.
  • Propriety i-coating™ Stopper Coating Technology
    Tailored to address unique drug product requirements, PLAJEX™ syringe systems feature Terumo’s optional propriety i-coating™ stopper technology2, providing consistent and predictable gliding force while eliminating the need for silicone oil. The silicone oil-free syringe systems are designed to preserve sensitive biotherapeutics1.
  • Ready-to-fill (RTF) design
    Pre-sterilized using steam sterilization, PLAJEX ready-to-fill syringes are configured for efficient filling and packaging.
