Device maker H&T Presspart has announced the opening of a new laboratory scale facility at its Blackburn, UK Inhalation Product Technology Centre (IPTC) for filling metered dose inhalers with lower global warming potential (GWP) propellants, including both HFA 152a and HFO 1234ze. According to the company, which offers product development services and analytical testing services for MDIs in addition to device components, batch sizes of up to 2,000 cans for use in in vitro testing can be produced in the new facility.
IPTC Director Ameet Sule said, “This new facility will be crucial in supporting our customers to lower the environmental footprint and future proof inhalation products as they look to move towards more sustainable low GWP propellants for both current and new pMDI formulations. It complements the range of other inhalation testing services we already offer.”
