Considerations For Implementing Single-Use Filling Systems

Single-use technology has been used in upstream production processes for years. But only in the last seven to eight years has it become available for final fill/finish operations. 

The following benefits from running single-use filling systems, including the following:

• Easy to use

• Easy to create multiple products in small batches

• No need for cleaning validation

• A familiarity with packaging materials

• Reduced time to market and time to patient

• Reduced use of water and need for cleaning, reduced risk of contamination and greater operator protection
