Big Pharma Smells Parallel Trade Victory

The company’s state-of-the-art sterile drug product manufacturing site in Saint-Beauzire, France, opened in February 2023.

The growing development of new biotherapeutic modalities will rely heavily on automation and progressive technologies.

This white paper presents an overview of mixing technologies implemented across many of today’s highly competitive pharmaceutical and medical industries, as well as new equipment designs that are increasingly being recognized as potential solutions to prevailing mixing challenges. Mixing applications falling within the broad spectrum of mass produced pharmaceutical goods and medical devices are too many and complex to discuss in detail hence this paper will touch on a few general classifications as well as a few examples within that mixing category. Phase and viscosity are used as bases for classification.

This episode is a compilation of comments taken from a series of interviews where experts reveal the trends that have impacted the bio/pharma industry in 2024 and those they expect to be impactful in 2025.

Consider upgrading your emulsification process to an ultra-high shear mixer to obtain finer droplet sizes and handle higher viscosity emulsions.

Tumble blenders deliver highly accurate and repeatable mixing of powders, granules and even low-viscosity slurries. In addition, this style blender enables complete discharge and easy cleaning. This bulletin presents some design considerations for maximizing mixing efficiency in a tumble blender and selecting the most suitable features for a particular application.
