The interview explores the key challenges in the PFS marketplace and Cedric�s prediction for the growth of the industry.

Snapshot of Cedric�s Interview:

What are the key challenges if any facing the PFS USA marketplace?
�A lot of the key challenges encompass new innovations and how can you react to the new drugs that are coming out. There is a rise in the demand for lower doses and higher volume injections. There will also be a lot of diversification in the market of pre-filled syringes, going into cartridges and other mediums as well, for example: patch injectors, bolus injectors and large-volume injectors will definitely be an important topic.�

Where do you think the biggest growth area will be in 2019?

�Definitely large-volume injectors. We are working on a number of low concentration, high volume drugs, as well as a number of developments that will go to patch and bolus injectors. There is a lot coming out in the near future that will change the market quite significantly. The overall volume of drugs is going down, so will probably have much more of a range of different syringes in the portfolio with lower volumes. This is a challenge for the industry and for suppliers.�
