Pharmaceutical Applications

Sartorius is one of the world's leading suppliers of weighing and filtration equipment to the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. In an industry where the costs of developing new products are high with tight deadlines, it is vital to get things right first time. That's why pharmaceutical companies across the world rely on Sartorius balances, scales, filters and crossflow systems.

From laboratory equipment to large-scale industrial applications, Sartorius has worked with the biggest names in the pharmaceutical market, developing solutions for critical areas including research, production and quality control. Our comprehensive range of weighing products for the pharmaceutical industry includes balances, scales, tank and vessel weighing equipment and much more, with weighing applications from 0.1mg to 300 tonnes.

Sartorius Biotechnology is well known for quality and precision in separation technology, with the invention of the first membrane filter in 1918. Since then, Sartorius Biotechnology has lead the way in developing new and innovative filtration products including fully scaleable cartridges and capsules, cross flow ultra filtration and microbiological testing devices.
