Watson-Marlow to showcase peristaltic pumps and fluid path technologies at PHARMINTECH

May 12, 2025

Falmouth, UK, 13th May 2025 / Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) will showcase its peristaltic pumps and fluid path technologies for the pharmaceutical industry during PHARMINTECH at the Fiera Milano, Italy (27-30 May, 2025).

Visitors to the Watson-Marlow stand (C89) can learn from WMFTS life science experts on how the company can support your process throughout upstream, downstream and final fill/finish applications with its scalable peristaltic cased pump range and single-use assemblies.

Visitors to stand C89 can discover how WMArchitect™ single-use solutions reduces risk, ensures quality and improves 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.

On display at stand C89 will be:

  • WMArchitect™ single-use solutions is an end-to-end biopharmaceutical fluid management solution from a single supplier. WMArchitect single-use solutions is 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 peristaltic cased pumps are globally recognised and validated for qualified bioprocessing duties. For the user, an enhanced operator and control system interface contributes to step-change improvements in validated process security. Not only do Watson-Marlow pumps deliver accuracy of up to +/-0.5% to guarantee process stability and product quality, but closed fluid path pumping assures complete isolation from any source of contamination during transfer, filling and filtration applications. Watson-Marlow pumps are ideal for processes from research to production, with flow rates from 0.004 ml/min to 3.5 L/min and pressures up to 7 bar.
  • 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.
  • Drawing on considerable experience in sinusoidal pumping technology, Certa Plus has been developed by MasoSine to meet a broad range of applications for the pharmaceutical industry. Certa Plus has high suction capability to handle viscous fluids, such as creams or gels, from the mixing tank/reactor to the filling line with ease. Products with viscosities from 1 cP to 8 million cP can be transferred with ease. The low shear, gentle handling of the sinusoidal pump is important to ensure gels and soft solids are transferred undamaged. Low shear action reduces the temperature increase of the pumped liquid to a minimum which is important when circulating products.
  • Flexible PTFE-lined hoses from Aflex Hose offer best-in-class kink resistance for biopharmaceutical applications. High-purity Bioflex Ultra and Pharmaline provide easy-to-clean, kink and chemical resistant fluid transfer solutions, which minimises downtime costs and increases reliability.
  • 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 ratings, with the latest in non-contact continuous measurement systems that ensures quality of every batch. Validated Watson-Marlow Tubing delivers accurate, repeatable and long-term pumping performance.
