Lyofast Freeze-Drying
Machine overview
More than a standard solution
Freeze-drying has important applications in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries, and is now a standard procedure used to stabilise, store or increase the shelf life of drug products and other biologicals.
A pre-engineered, cost-effective, reliable and efficient industrial freeze dryer, LYOFAST keeps freeze-drying competitive as a pharmaceutical processing step.
For either bulk format or liquid in vials, ampoules or trays, the LYOFAST units are designed for the freeze-drying of high value products, such as vaccines, antibiotics, cytostatics, biologicals, hormones, active ingredients, and reactives.
