General description

Standard bulk materials often show a tendency for caking, clumping and dust formation which results in laborious weighing and manual de-caking processes with a negative impact on manufacturing efficiency. Due to its granulated form, Ammonium Sulfate granulated is free-flowing and easy to handle. Its greatly reduced caking behavior facilitates processability, speeds up manufacturing processes and increases operator safety.
As part of our Emprove® Program, our raw materials are offered with extensive documentation facilitating compliance of your pharma and biopharma product, full supply chain transparency and risk mitigation. Our SAFC® portfolio of high-quality products for biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical formulation and production withstands strict quality control procedures and is produced according to applicable cGMP guidelines.

Application

Ammonium sulfate is widely used as a precipitant in biopharma manufacturing and as a excipient in liposomal formulations.
Due to its low microbial and endotoxin limits, Ammonium sulfate Emprove® Expert is especially suitable for high-risk applications.

Facilitate Handling of Bulk Powders with Dry Granulation

Handling bulk powders at a large scale in the pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, and bioprocessing setting is challenging. Compared to powders, granulated materials experience far less caking, have better flowability, and are easier to handle, even after long-term storage.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
