"STEER World, a global leader in advanced materials processing technology, has announced a collaboration with Gericke, a Switzerland-based expert in powder processing equipment and system integration. This partnership aims to deliver a continuous granulation system tailored to the needs of pharmaceutical manufacturers, transforming the production of oral solid dosage (OSD) forms.
Customers in the pharmaceutical industry are increasingly seeking a seamless, end-to-end continuous granulation process from bin to bin that offers consistent granule properties, reduced manual intervention, lower analytics costs, decreased energy consumption, and a smaller operational footprint compared to conventional batch processing.
For these advantages to be fully realised, a robust, integrated continuous granulation system is required. This is where STEER World and Gericke come together. Their collaboration will deliver a state-of-the-art continuous granulation solution, customised to meet specific customer needs, said the communication note.
Gericke brings extensive expertise in system integration, including feeding systems, granulation, and downstream blending. STEER World, with its patented Integraal continuous granulation technology, ensures superior granule quality in a seamless, continuous process. The synergy of these two organisations will set new standards in pharmaceutical granulation, making the process more efficient and reliable.
The collaboration will be offered across all throughput ranges that customers require and for all products that can be granulated using Integraal technology. It will cater to the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical sectors, focusing on oral solid dosage forms.
“The future of continuous granulation is set to shine brighter with this strategic alliance. By combining Gericke’s system integration expertise with STEER’s patented technology, we are creating a breakthrough solution that enhances efficiency, sustainability, and product quality,” said Rajesh Srinivasan, CDO, STEER World.
Berhnard Meir, head, continuous manufacturing (pharma), Gericke, added, “This partnership will be a game-changer, offering customers a cutting-edge approach to manufacturing that aligns with the industry's evolving needs, especially at scale production.”
