US-based drug delivery systems company Aptar Pharma has released its first metal-free, multidose nasal spray. APF Futurity delivers multidose nasal saline and similar over-the-counter (OTC) formulations.
According to the company, it is the first “highly-recyclable” nasal spray pump ‒ it has received Class AA certification from cyclos-HTP for recycling streams in Europe. It is made from polyolefin materials which eliminates the need for metal parts, no separation efforts are needed in order to recycle it.
