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
China's biopharmaceutical sector is entering a new phase of global
relevance. Long recognized as a strategic pillar of the national
economy, sustained policy support and investment over the past decade
have helped build deep scientific capabilities and a rapidly maturing
innovation ecosystem.
As more biopharmaceutical companies "Go Global", many are establishing
a growing international footprint, while others are accelerating their
overseas ambitions. Emerging as core players on the global stage,
Chinese companies accounted for nearly 50%1 of all new drug molecules entering human trials in the first half of 2025 alone.
At the same time, the growing complexity of biologics and vaccines is
driving increased demand for advanced, high-quality drug delivery and
packaging systems that can support product performance and safety from
early development through commercialization. Competing globally also
requires navigating stringent regulatory environments while ensuring
reliable, scalable supply. Together, these factors make trusted partners
with proven technical expertise and international regulatory experience
critical for sustainable growth.
To support Chinese biopharmaceutical companies in their ambitions,
West has now made the West Synchrony™ PFS system available in the
country.
West Synchrony™ PFS System
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."
Join West at CPHI & PMEC China 2026
The West Synchrony™ PFS system will be showcased at CPHI & PMEC
China 2026, where an expert from West will present on the role of
integrated delivery systems in supporting China's next phase of
biopharmaceutical innovation and its global ambitions for expansion.
Trade media and industry stakeholders interested in learning more about
the technology and its application in biologics are invited to visit the
West booth during the exhibition. The details of the presentation are
