GEA Pharma Systems will focus on Containment at Technopharm 2008:


Contained Materials Handling and High Containment Interfaces
BUCK® and BUCK SYSTEMS combine an in-depth understanding of containment requirements with a scope of supply ranging from an individual containment valve to a complete contained materials handling system. These systems provide high personal and product protection during all stages of the processing of highly potent APIs, preventing the escape of dust and maintaining contamination-free interfaces ...

Contained Single Pot Processing
Because of its very nature, a Single Pot process is a contained process. No transfers are required between process steps, except for loading the raw materials and unloading the dry granules. This is not only beneficial for protecting the operators from potent products, but also for protecting the products from external influences such as heat, light or moisture. Specific solutions are available for product loading and discharging to achieve the desired level of containment for the whole process ... Read more

Innovation 
Tomorrow’s technology today

For GEA Pharma Systems, innovation is the key to our success and to continued prosperity for our customers. In fact it’s more than that. We know that by continually stretching the boundaries of what is possible in pharmaceutical processing we have the ability to support our Customers in enhancing the opportunities available to millions of people all over the world. This is what drives our business. Our innovation takes many forms and affects all parts of the process. We innovate to increase production and reduce costs, to improve containment and safeguard the workforce, to achieve better clinical effectiveness and to enhance quality control. At GEA Pharma Systems the innovation never stops – it’s just part of what we do.

For example we have pioneered Pharma spray drying to provide unprecedented control of particle form and release profile for drug development, meeting the most demanding clinical needs. FlexStream™ (patent pending): our new fluid bed coating system offers multiple processing from a single bowl providing both flexibility and cost benefits. Modul™ and Performa™ tablet presses combine unrivalled containment with fast product change-over and high productivity.

The Buck® MC Valve makes the contained handling of active pharmaceutical ingredients much easier and less expensive than has been possible in the past. Consigma™: a unique continuous granulation and drying process that drastically reduces time to market of new medicines and enables the move to a 6-Sigma process; and PharmaConnect™ which enables diverse GEA development equipment to be docked into a single ‘plug and play’ module with full cGMP compliance.
