Why premixed bags?
A novel container for ready-to-use injectables
Unlike conventional plastic containers, NI film offers low-sorption, low-elution properties which preserve the drug solution from filling to administration. This ZACROS original design provides glass-like stability for active pharmaceuticals.
Safety
Premixed drugs are essentially a closed system, which mitigates risk of exposing medical workers and patients to harmful chemicals.
Error Prevention
Preparation for injectables requires a significant amount of work and accuracy, so there is a risk of human error. Premixed bags virtually eliminate this risk as a grab-and-go solution.
Speed
Reconstitution time for injectables can take an average of 5 minutes whereas preparing a premixed bag takes a fraction of that time.
Every second counts: premixed bags save lives!
By eliminating the mixing process of conventional vials and ampoules, we enable prompt drug administration.

Accessory products
One-touch Caps
A solution for aseptically filled products
Our standard IV bag closures require an ultrasonic welder. These one-touch caps, however, require no extra capital investment.
Benefits
- Close and finish with the push of a finger
- Easy Container Closure Integrity (CCI)
- Zero particle generation, which prevents contamination of clean rooms
- Patent and design licenses acquired
- By design, caps cannot reseal, which acts as tampering prevention
Secondary packaging
Overwraps are an economic way to add barrier properties to primary packaging as desired.
Pouches come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, and can be made with various materials of construction (VM-PET, aluminium, etc.).
