Sterile closure processing system for pharmaceutical production
Ensure your pharmaceutical closures remain sterile and intact from processing to filling, minimizing manual handling and maintaining an unbroken aseptic chain.

The Stopper and Closure Processing System (CPS) from Getinge offers a comprehensive solution for aseptic environments in pharmaceutical and biotech industries. By maintaining an unbroken chain of sterility, the CPS efficiently washes, sterilizes, dries, and delivers closures, minimizing manual handling to ensure product integrity. Utilizing mobile Multi-Purpose Vessels (MPVs), the system supports continuous, automated operation across all closure processing stages, including optional siliconization. Key applications include vaccine vials, insulin cartridges, and monoclonal antibody containers, crucial for sterile pharmaceutical production. Compliance with GMP standards ensures reliability and quality in aseptic processing, with components constructed from 316L stainless steel for optimal corrosion resistance. The system’s design facilitates seamless integration into existing filling lines, enhancing overall production efficiency through reduced energy usage and improved throughput.
