West Pharmaceutical Services Strengthens Support for China’s Biologics Ecosystem with Integrated Prefillable Syringe System Launch at CPHI China 2026

The West Synchrony™ Prefillable Syringe (PFS) System offers strategic infrastructure to support Chinese biotech innovators to expand their global footprint in biologics and vaccines.

SHANGHAI, CHINA - Media OutReach Newswire - 16 June 2026 - West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. (NYSE: WST), a long-standing partner to China's pharmaceutical industry, today announced the availability of its West Synchrony™ prefillable syringe (PFS) system to drug developers at CPHI & PMEC China 2026, taking place June 16-18, 2026. This innovative platform uniquely integrates the syringe barrel, plunger, and needle shield/tip cap into a fully harmonized, verified system from a single supplier and emphasizes the company's commitment to supporting the development of China's biopharmaceutical sector in alignment with the country's 15th Five-Year Plan. By strengthening the innovation ecosystem and accelerating development and time to market, the company supports China's biopharmaceutical companies in achieving biotechnology breakthroughs and reaching global milestones.

Enabling China's Next Phase of Global Biopharmaceutical Growth

To support Chinese biopharmaceutical companies in their ambitions, West has now made the West Synchrony™ PFS system available in the country.

This gives Chinese innovators the infrastructure needed to compete on quality, safety, and regulatory compliance across international markets, with greater confidence and efficiency.

"Chinese biopharmaceutical companies today have established themselves as serious global innovators, with significant opportunities to sustain momentum through high‑quality innovation," said Maha Guruswamy, Vice President & Managing Director, Commercial, Asia Pacific. "The challenge is that a traditional, individual-component system introduces significant technical and regulatory complexities. West Synchrony addresses these by providing a fully verified and integrated containment and delivery system from a single source, allowing our partners to accelerate development and focus on delivering therapies to patients."

Deepening A Long-Term Partnership with China's Pharmaceutical Ecosystem

The introduction of the West Synchrony™ PFS system reflects the company's decades-long commitment to supporting pharmaceutical innovation. This investment extends beyond product offerings to include technical expertise, regulatory support, and a single source of accountability that serve both domestic Chinese companies and multinational partners operating in China.

"As China's biopharmaceutical companies continue to strengthen their capabilities and expand their presence globally, West is committed to partnering with them at every stage of their growth journey," said Philip Wang, Senior Director, Commercial, China. "We aim to enable them to achieve their global ambitions, and the West Synchrony™ PFS system is one example from our portfolio of high‑quality, innovative solutions that provide customers with the same trusted infrastructure relied upon by leading multinational pharmaceutical companies worldwide."
