Meissner Acquires PDC Aseptic Filling Systems

On Jan. 12, 2018, Meissner Filtration Products, a developer, manufacturer, and supplier of microfiltration and single-use systems, announced that it has acquired PDC Aseptic Filling Systems, a supplier of aseptic filling systems and sealers.

“PDC’s technology is a natural extension of our current portfolio and fits with our trajectory as pertains to providing automated platforms that enable robust pharmaceutical processing operations,” stated Chris Meissner, CEO of Meissner, in a company press release. “We are committed to providing our clients with process solutions that reduce risk, while at the same time enhance productivity, and this makes PDC a great fit for our organization.”

PDC’s products will add to Meissner’s current process solutions, which include filtration, single-use systems, fluid handling, and unit processing offerings. The filling systems enable automated aseptic filing of pharmaceutical process liquids, while the sealing equipment reduces cycle times associated with aseptic disconnections, according to the company.
