Visitors to the Watson-Marlow stand at ExCeL London can learn from WMFTS life science experts how the company can support your process throughout upstream, downstream, and final fill/finish applications with its scalable peristaltic cased pump range, specialised filling machines, and single-use assemblies.

Visitors to stand EP20 can discover how WMArchitect™ single-use solutions reduce risk, ensure quality, and improve delivery times for pharmaceutical companies.

Alongside WMArchitect, WMFTS’s range of specialised peristaltic pumps and critical fluid path technologies for scalable drug bioprocess and small-batch drug product fill/finish applications will also be on display.

Steve Feasey, Customer and Market Insights Manager – Life Sciences Global Business Development, said: “Our life sciences experts will be able to provide advice on how to overcome common challenges in fluid transfer applications, ensure compliance, process stability, and final product quality.

“As well as discovering what our expanding portfolio of products is capable of at our stand, visitors to the London Biotechnology Show will also be able to spot our pumps integrated into customers’ systems on their own stands.”

On display at stand EP20 will be:

  • WMArchitect™ single-use solutions: An end-to-end biopharmaceutical fluid management solution from a single supplier. WMArchitect single-use solutions are designed to offer both standard, ready-to-use single-use assemblies as well as customised designs that are fully supported with tailored validation packages. WMArchitect will streamline a process, safeguard product, reduce regulatory burden, and resolve challenges for end-to-end, single-use fluid path management.

  • Watson-Marlow pumps: Deliver accuracy of up to ±0.5% to guarantee process stability and product quality. Closed fluid path pumping assures complete isolation from any source of contamination during transfer, filling, and filtration applications. The Watson-Marlow 100 series pump maximises yield in fermentation and cell culture applications. The compact laboratory pump is perfectly suited to single-use systems with superior speed control up to 2,000:1, ±1% set speed accuracy, and repeatable flow.

  • The Flexicon PF7+: A benchtop peristaltic dispensing pump developed for accurate and reliable manual filling of sensitive fluids in GMP production and cleanroom environments. The closed fluid path removes any risk of cross-contamination, making the PF7+ ideal for aseptic filling. From stand-alone units for hand filling through to semi-automatic and fully automatic systems, Flexicon offers customised solutions to fit any glass vial, plastic bottle, test tube, eye-dropper, or non-self-standing microtube. The unique design of the Flexicon peristaltic fillers, along with sets of recommended filling parameters and Accusil silicone tubing, are ideal for filling within the pharmaceutical, diagnostics, and biotechnology industries, particularly when handling shear-sensitive liquids.

  • Watson-Marlow Tubing: Manufactured in ISO 14644-1 Class 7 cleanrooms and rigorously tested, Watson-Marlow Tubing is available in over 40 sizes that carry a USP Class VI and FDA rating, with the latest in non-contact continuous measurement systems that ensure the quality of every batch. Validated Watson-Marlow Tubing delivers accurate, repeatable, and long-term pumping performance.
