  • Publication number: 20240065940
    Abstract: An assembly includes an injection device including a container for a product. The container includes a distal tip encompassing a channel providing a passageway for transferring the product, and an adaptor mounted onto the distal tip. The assembly further includes a heat-shrinkable film covering at least part of the container and at least part of the adaptor. The heat-shrinkable film maintains the adaptor blocked in rotation and in translation relative to the container when the heat-shrinkable film is in heat-shrunk condition.
