Drug Substance Freezing Technologies: How to Improve Your Freeze/Thaw Process and ROI

Date

Aug 29 2024

Learning Type

Free Live Webinar

Overview

Pharma and biopharma companies continually seek to improve their drug substance freeze/thaw process to protect quality, increase yield, reduce manufacturing footprint, and improve return on investment. The challenge in achieving these goals has been a lack of updated freezer technology.

Traditionally, companies have been forced to choose between an ultra-low-temperature (ULT) freezer and a plate freezer when freezing bulk materials.

While ULTs have low initial cost, they are not designed to support this process, leading to compressor failures, wasted resources, and additional capital spend for back-up equipment. Plate freezers, on the other hand, are better designed to meet the need but come with a higher price tag, greater complexity, and configuration challenges with managing drug substance placement within the chamber.

These challenges beg the question – Does a better, more efficient, and cost-effective freezing technology exist? The answer is, “Yes!”

Join us on August 29 to discover purpose-built solutions to support production environments where volume, scale, reliability, and repeatability are critical.

What you can expect of the webinar:

  1. Review of industry freezing challenges

2. Gain understanding of current ULT and plate freezer technology capabilities and limitations

  1. Discover a better way to freeze bulk drug substance that is reliable, robust, efficient, and maintains drug substance quality.
