Profile
Atlas Copco supplies compressed air, gas and filtration technologies for applications throughout pharmaceutical production. Its oil-free compressors provide high-purity air for processes where contamination must be tightly controlled, including tablet production, fermentation, aseptic filling, conveying and packaging. Class 0-certified options ensure that no oil enters the compressed air stream, while dryers help maintain stable dew points and reduce moisture-related risks.
On-site nitrogen generation systems allow pharmaceutical manufacturers to produce gas at the required purity, pressure and flow, reducing reliance on externally delivered supplies. Nitrogen can be used for blanketing, purging, product transfer and other applications where an inert atmosphere helps protect materials and maintain process conditions.
Atlas Copco’s process filtration range covers air, gas, liquids and steam. It includes depth, membrane and sterilising-grade filters, together with filter housings for critical pharmaceutical applications. These systems support particle removal, bioburden reduction and sterile filtration across active pharmaceutical ingredient production, water treatment, fermentation and ophthalmic manufacturing. Atlas Copco’s filtration specialists can also support filter selection, system sizing, integration and validation requirements. Its filtration products are manufactured in controlled environments and backed by validation support to help address qualification, regulatory and audit expectations.
The wider pharmaceutical offering includes vacuum and process-cooling technologies, as well as monitoring, maintenance and energy-efficiency services. These capabilities enable manufacturers to manage critical utilities as connected systems rather than isolated items of equipment.
With UK-based sales, engineering and service support, Atlas Copco can supply individual products or develop integrated systems around the technical, quality and operational requirements of a pharmaceutical production site.
