Pandemic Preparedness: Ensuring a Robust Parenteral Packaging Supply Chain
This on-demand webinar examines how pharmaceutical manufacturers and their primary packaging suppliers must approach component selection, sourcing qualification, cross-site validation, and mass production scale-out to maintain supply chain continuity during pandemic conditions — drawing on lessons from COVID-19 vaccine rollout to build a replicable preparedness framework.

Resource Overview
About this Webinar
The COVID-19 pandemic exposed critical vulnerabilities in global vaccine supply chains — from component procurement delays and single-source packaging dependencies to the logistical complexity of qualifying multiple fill-finish sites under emergency timelines. This on-demand webinar provides pharmaceutical supply chain, packaging, and regulatory professionals with a practical preparedness framework built around four interconnected areas: component selection (compound recommendation, extractables and leachables documentation, container closure integrity, cold storage and lyophilization compatibility across typical vaccine formulations including influenza, HPV, pneumococcal conjugate, shingles, and COVID-19); sourcing and upscaling (pre-approval of multiple manufacturing plants, cross-validation of design-formulation combinations across sites, and accelerated qualification strategies); Datwyler's proven global production footprint across three continents with globally harmonized specifications enabling flexible, risk-mitigated supply; and mass production scale-out considerations for global CDMO networks, including RABS and Rapid Transfer Port (RTP) bag compatibility, gamma irradiation capacity constraints, and internal versus external steam sterilization options. The session also outlines the strategic evolution of vaccine packaging from short-term coated vial closures to mid-term alternative evaluation and long-term lyophilized and prefilled syringe formats for individualized immunization campaigns.
