With an individual approach to each customer s needs, extensive experience and know-how, we deliver excellence and technological innovation for our customers long-term competitive advantage. System Integration Our distinctive specialisation lies in the integration of the Buck containment technology into complete solutions for pharmaceutical solid dosage forms facilities. With an emphasis on quality and GMP standards, we are committed to working together with our customers to deliver first class tailored solutions for projects of all sizes and complexity. Containment and powder technology Through the use of Buck Valve technologies, we provide a dust-free highly contained powder transfer. Our systematic approach to design eliminates contamination and leakage of material throughout the process line whilst still maintaining flexibility for either CIP or COP, and meets the strictest GMP requirements in the industry. We offer a complete range of quality Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs), used for processing, storage, blending and transportation of pharmaceutical products, including excipients, active powders, granules, capsules and tablets, from dispensing through to feeding packaging systems. Dispensing Our systems optimise this operation, which is vital to a solid dosage pharmaceutical process. We provide a modular range of manual and automated weighing equipment, creating bespoke systems designed to optimise the weighing and dispensing of raw materials. With software solutions to provide complete recipe management, process and weight control, material traceability and process repeatability, together with weighing, handling and containment equipment, each dispensary system is individually tailored to the meet clients process requirements and fit in with the building design. Discharging and Filling IBC s For difficult flowing materials, products subject to segregation and damage, and the need to transfer potent products in a contained manner, we provide unique technologies for accurate filling and discharging. These ensure high levels of containment, rapid product change over, Cleaning In Place (CIP) and complete discharge with no segregation. Blending Our extensive process knowledge and continuous research delivers the most efficient blending process. We offer a wide range of technical solutions and process options to ensure efficient mixing and blending of powders and granules. Washing A full range of washing solutions are available for contained cleaning of active charge vessels, containers and IBCs. In addition, mobile CIP units offer an alternative for use at key stages within the process. We also offer wash solution preparation systems and process control solutions to allow full validation of the washing system.
