Glatt Pharma+Biotech Engineering services for the production of YOUR chemical active pharmaceutical ingredients
Chemical APIs are the backbone of many pharmaceutical formulations, and their production demands precision, innovation, and efficiency. Glatt Process & Plant Engineering meets these demands head-on, delivering end-to-end engineering solutions that propel your chemical API production forward.
Our approach is grounded in innovation, from developing novel synthetic routes that enhance molecule complexity and yield, to designing and constructing facilities that set new standards in operational efficiency and safety. Our expertise extends beyond engineering to embrace the environmental responsibilities of chemical manufacturing. Through the implementation of green chemistry principles, we ensure that your production process is not only efficient but also sustainable, minimizing waste and reducing environmental impact.
Our holistic approach ensures that your facilities and processes meet all global standards, positioning your products for success in a competitive market. With our comprehensive services you gain more than an engineering partner. You gain a collaborator dedicated to redefining the possibilities of chemical API production.
Glatt takes a flexible and modular design approach to engineering. Predefined modules and proven layouts can be used to achieve “right-first-time” plant design. Modular multiproduct facilities for API synthesis not only make it possible to produce several different products for a lower investment, they can also be planned and delivered in a shorter timeframe because the engineering effort is much lower and field-proven solutions are used.
In the functional layout concept, the block areas are mapped out with the actual equipment in place; existing layout modules are used for facilities producing active ingredients by chemical synthesis
Using typical layouts, a quick estimate of the space requirements can be derived; in addition, possible spatial arrangements of the modules can be simulated
Plant for active ingredient production: working together with the customer, Glatt systematically plans and implements the right plant configuration for each application
In a functional diagram, the necessary process steps of the planned API synthesis — as well as hygiene requirements regarding material and personnel flow — can be clearly structured in accordance with GMP
