Aggregation is an important step to make the pharmaceutical supply chain safer and more secure by adding traceability and insight to your logistic process, therefore, ensuring the safety of patients worldwide and maintaining trust in the pharmaceutical industry. However, the implementation of aggregation can be challenging as it adds steps to the packaging process. It is therefore important to integrate a solution that is flexible and tailored-made to your production processes to maximize the potential gains.

In an effort to move away from conventional batch production and modernizing the global chemical processing industry, continuous manufacturing (CM) is the common vision and desire with the potential to increase efficiency, quality and flexibility in manufacturing.

Dec‘s philosophy is to develop customer-specific modules and equipment. Starting with agreed project scope, intensive brainstorm sessions, strong design processes and (customer) reviews, the aim is to deliver an innovative filling solution. During the concept development, risk analysis is an important tool in the decision-making process.

Traditional vials, ampoules, and cartridges are still the most popular delivery systems and the prefilled syringes are still experiencing the greatest growth in the market of any parenteral dosage form. Therefore, to advance the development program appropriately, pharmaceutical R&D scientists should effectively leverage the advantages offered by each form of packaging and dosage.

The aseptic/sterile Fill-Finish equipment solutions need to be cGMP compliant, dependable and accurately designed to comply with the most recent revisions of the “Annex 1 Manufacture of Sterile Medicinal Products guidelines”. Newly designed equipment needs to accommodate for small batches, various speeds and containers, including RTU / RTF (Ready To Use or Ready To Fill) bottles, vials, cartridges, syringes and pre-sterile nested trays. Moreover, the filling equipment solution should also improve the ergonomic use for operators and maximize cleanroom efficiency.

In pharmaceutical manufacturing containment performance is critical to minimize operator exposure and process cross contamination.

Secondary pharmaceutical manufacturing typically includes the final formulation, so the need to meet current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) regulations and quality standards are paramount.

Recent years have shown steady growth in manufacturing sterile, high potent products in the pharmaceutical industry. Antibiotics for intravenous or intramuscular injection in powder form such as Ceftriaxone Sodium for example, need to be produced under sterile conditions.

Batch manufacturing is still commonplace in the pharmaceutical and chemical industry. Such operations require to use intermediate packaging for product storage between each process step leading to numerous disadvantages such as low production flexibility, process downtime, high risks of operator exposure, product contamination and sterility loss.
