Porvair’s Novel Moulding Process Delivers Highly Uniform Plastic Parts

Drawing upon over 30 years experience – Porvair Filtration Group has developed expertise to offer optimum manufacturing solutions of sintered porous plastic components using a wide range of cGMP manufacturing techniques.

Recent development of a revolutionary new moulding technology now enables the company to rapidly produce porous plastic components of the highest quality and part-to-part uniformity up to the multi-million scale.

Developed to provide the optimum solution for a wide variety of pharmaceutical, medical and cosmetic applications involving in-vitro filtration, wicking, venting and controlled release mechanisms the new moulding technology allows for rapid prototyping thereby reducing project time and time to market. Beneficially the new clean room based manufacturing process does not require expensive tooling like conventional moulding techniques and is automated to reduce potential contamination and bioburden.
