Perfectly aligned system solutions
Pharmaceutical products
Meeting strict requirements with confidence
Hard capsules with solid or liquid preparations, inhalers with powder or liquids, innovative oral pharmaceutical forms. Pharmaceutical products vary greatly. What they all have in common is the strict requirements for quality and safety – both for the application and production. Your processes for handling potent APIs must be GMP-compliant and reproducible.
Therefore, in this sensitive area, ALL YOU NEED also represents the interaction between mechanical engineering and pharmacy. Our combined expertise ensures efficient, risk-minimized process development, especially for innovative devices and new formulations. Tried-and-tested core technologies and machine platforms ensure the safety of your product, while individualized solutions turn them into your best process.
More than high-tech mechanical engineering
Expertise across the spectrum

Capsules
Hard capsules are among the most versatile pharmaceutical forms. We bring our process expertise to bear for precise filling. We offer machines from development to production, along with dosing methods for various solid and liquid media.

Inhalers
Inhalable drugs improve quality of life, for example, in asthma and COPD. Whether dry powder inhalers, nasal applicators, or soft mist inhalers: We develop the optimal process for dosing and assembly. Right for your compound and device.

IV bags
IV bags may look simple, but their aseptic filling and packaging processes are complex. With our aligned technologies, we prevent contamination and reliably protect your product – from no-touch transfer through to sealing.

Microneedles
Microneedles, in the form of patches or plasters, deliver APIs directly under the skin, making it easy to administrate vaccines, for example. We support the development of this future technology and contribute our know-how to your innovation project.

Oral and buccal films
Orodispersible and mucoadhesive buccal film strips – ODF and MBF – dissolve in the mouth and deliver APIs into the body via the oral mucosa. For pharmaceutical-grade production, we apply our expertise throughout the process, from coating to primary packaging.

Transdermal therapeutic systems
Transdermal therapeutic systems – TTS or TDS – are effective alternatives to conventional oral pharmaceutical forms. Matrix patches release APIs into the skin in a controlled way. You also have full control over the pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing and packaging of your products.

Packaging
Cartoning and packaging machines: That’s where we started – it’s in our DNA. We have over 50 years of experience in designing safe and efficient processes for packaging your products in all types of folding cartons and shipping boxes.
Additional categories

Medical products
Reliable technologies, meticulous manufacturing, and robust, reproducible processes: This ensures uncompromising product quality and safe application on or in the body.

Consumer products
Processing everyday products in consistent quality at high throughput speeds, is one thing. Making production more sustainable and quality even better, is Harro Höfliger.
