ChargePoint Technology, a specialist in powder and liquid transfer, has invested in a novel manufacturing facility dedicated to its single-use products in Speke, Liverpool, to address an increased demand in the market for disposable technologies and equipment. The new site features a high-tech cleanroom alongside a temperature and humidity-controlled storage facility for single-use solutions.
The new single-use centre is adjacent to ChargePoint’s current headquarters and will become fully operational in June 2024. The site will significantly increase ChargePoint’s overall cleanroom capacity at this location.
The investment supports a trio of product launches designed to meet growing demand in the market for solutions that maintain optimum containment and sterile integrity for closed powder transfer, for both small and medium-scale production. These include:
ChargeBag XL: New 3D powder transfer bags have been developed to increase the range of sizes available to ChargePoint customers for batch transfers in excess of 150 L in volume in API, OSD and aseptic production.
ChargeBag QF (Quick-Fill): The ChargeBag QF (QuickFill) bag is designed to speed up the dispensing and transfer of bio-pharmaceutical and chemical powders in high throughput production environments such as buffer and cell culture media preparation.
ChargePoint SUP: The larger sized DN150 (6”) Single Use Passive adds to the existing DN100 offering and connects to ChargePoint(R) Split Butterfly Valve (SBVs) with a 150mm aperture and supports the transfer of powders up to and beyond 150 L in volume.
