Dalton Pharma Services Invests in Robotic Aseptic Powder Fill-Finish Line from 3P innovation

from 3P innovation as being an ideal solution based on the feasibility studies of several difficult to handle powders. Other factors of consideration included the increased sterility assurance, reduced risk of product failure and enhanced compliance with Annex 1.

The current agreement builds on a multi-year association between the two companies. "Both 3P and Dalton share a similar mindset," notes Chris Kotoris, Senior Director of Operations at Dalton: "We are very much focused on finding solutions to our client's challenges whilst being nimble enough to adapt and influential enough to lead. The innovative technology of 3P innovation combined with Dalton's cGMP facility and expertise are your perfect partners."

The acquisition of 3P innovation's RFF Cell enables Dalton to address larger segments of the pharmaceutical market and serve customers with greater global patient populations.

The new system comprises fully integrated isolators with multiple linked process chambers that have been designed to provide a compact integrated solution for ready-to-use (RTU) tubs. Benefiting from six chambers, filling, stoppering, capping and crimping will all be done automatically. "What's unique about this project," said Nick Brooks, Managing Director at 3P innovation, "is that the line has been built from the ground up with Annex 1 compliance in mind. We are not just updating legacy equipment, here, this is a bespoke creation."

"After 10 years of integrating fill lines into third-party isolators and being frustrated by the challenges of working with plant designed by others, we decided to build our own." The result is a compact, fully contained unit that enables super-fast site integration with zero civil structural work required to install the unit into existing cleanroom environments. Technically able to handle both powder and liquid media filling applications, 3P innovation is delighted that the first commercial unit has been sold and is currently under construction.
