Single Use Assemblies Enable Customized Solutions
The basic premise behind a portfolio of products designed for single-use technology systems (SUTs) is that this suite of elbows, tees, Y connectors, adaptors and more offers endless possibilities to customize configurations that specifically suit the unique needs of a biotechnology production process. We provide a range of sizes and component types, each fitted with our Tri-Clamp® and Hose Barb connections, for seamless integration of parts with secure connectivity to create nearly limitless configurations. However, sometimes a company needs more.
Paving the Way for SUTs
The rapid progression of the biotechnology and pharmaceutical industries and the emergence of diverse therapeutic modalities paved the way for SUTs. While widely adopted in the industry due to their flexibility, sterility and reliability for single-use purposes, each bioprocessing operation is unique. Whether it is the production scale, the biological or synthetic compound being manufactured, or the complexity of the bioprocess workflow, a catalog approach or one-size-fits-all mentality can tangle operational efficiencies.
We offer a wide range of sizes and materials compatible with USP Class VI regulations, and these materials can be mixed and matched with any size or product type. However, customized solutions are available when specifications fall outside the range of sizes and materials offered.
We know that speed is essential, and SUTs can help accelerate product development and shorten the timeframe for market introductions. This is especially critical within the pharmaceutical industry when timely drug development and deployment can significantly impact public health and offer the issuing company a competitive advantage.
Custom Components are the Future of Manufacturing
Custom components answer at least three bioprocessing or pharmaceutical market trends.
Customized bioprocessing components and systems are needed to manufacture individual doses efficiently.
Innovations in drug production often introduce novel methodologies and technologies. These might require unique components or system design, emphasizing the need for customization.
As complex biologics continue to emerge, such as monoclonal antibodies, cell and gene therapies or antibody-drug conjugates, the demand will only increase for specialized equipment and components to handle, process and produce these products.
At Contour BioSolutions, we pledge to remain as nimble and flexible as the industry demands to deliver solutions to the bioprocessing sector, whether standard or custom. Custom solutions address the immediate requirements of bioprocessing today and offer the adaptability to cater to evolving needs in the future. As with our standard line of components, customized solutions will supply the same level of sterility, safety and efficiency to enhance process synergy.
