In 2020, BD announced investment of US$1.2 Bn in prefilled syringes manufacturing capacities for next four years. This new manufacturing is expected to be operational by 2023. The investment will also fund capacity expansion, new product innovations, manufacturing technology enhancements and business continuity improvements across its existing network, all designed to maximize supply and reduce risks for pharmaceutical companies that rely on ready-to-fill syringes for their injectable drugs including complex biologics, vaccines, and small molecule.

In 2021, Baxter announced US$100 Mn expansion of its sterile manufacturing facility. Baxter operates this facility in collaboration with BioPharma Solutions.
