According to one embodiment, a coated glass package may include a glass body having a Type 1 chemical durability according to USP 660, a class A2 base resistance or better according to ISO 695, and a type HGB2 hydrolytic resistance or better according to ISO 719. The glass body may include an interior surface and an exterior surface. A lubricous coating having a thickness of ≦100 microns may be positioned on the exterior surface. The portion of the exterior surface with the coating may have a coefficient of friction that is at least 20% less than an uncoated glass package and the coefficient of friction does not increase by more than 30% after undergoing depyrogenation. A horizontal compression strength of the coated glass package is at least 10% greater than an uncoated glass package and the horizontal compression strength is not reduced by more than 20% after depyrogenation. |
