Nephron & Sharps collaborate to develop best manufacturing practices

Pharmaceutical firm, Nephron Pharmaceuticals Corporation and renowned medical device and pharmaceutical packaging company, Sharps Technology, Inc. have recently entered a partnership.

With this collaboration, both firms look forward to developing and sharing best practices in innovative manufacturing, customer support, product development, and quality as Nephron looks forward to unveiling the InjectEZ component of expansion.

Not to mention, Nephron CEO Lou Kennedy addressed that partnerships are crucial for launching an ambitious endeavor, such as InjectEZ.

Speaking on the latest move, Kennedy mentioned that the firm is thrilled to collaborate with Sharps Technology, as the InjectEZ project opens, for several innovative initiatives, including R&D (research and development).

These features safeguard the public and front-line healthcare workers against potentially fatal needle stick injuries.

With the new collaboration, Nephron will provide several prospects to Sharps for proliferating its portfolio and impacting the specially designed pre-fillable syringe and drug delivery systems market.
