For over half a century, GEA Niro has supplied drying plants for powders and particulates to the pharmaceutical industry, including small scale dryers designed for R&D as well as industrial plants for the continuous production of pharmaceutical components under cGMP conditions.

The main advantage to the powder producer is the ability to controlpowder form.  GEA Niro spray dryers are designed to produce the desired properties: particles size, bulk density, moisture content, solubility, dispersibility etc, from pumpable feeds even those which are heat sensitive.

GEA Niro's expertise has led to the development of plant design and configuration tailored to the requirements of primary as well as secondary pharmaceuticals including technologies for processing Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients using spray drying, agglomeration, encapsulation and spray congealing.
