At the IsoTech Lab - a corner devoted to the Isolator Research & Development Laboratory - IMA Life experts in aseptic processing will present the new IMA VPHP BioIndicator. Developed to complement Microbiological Support Services, this new generation of biological indicators has been specifically designed for VPHP bio-decontamination cycles used in isolators. IMA VPHP BioIndicator supports Cycle Development, Performance Qualification (PQ), re-qualification, and ongoing contamination control strategies, ensuring robust and defendable 6-log sporicidal performance. These biological indicators are based on Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores (ATCC 12980) and packaged in VPHP-permeable packaging.
The GIANT1 Series by IMA Safe introduces a more integrated and sustainable approach to blister production. At Interpack, the new standard connection debuts with an innovative blister‑overturning module that enhances production flexibility and improves downstream efficiency. By mechanically interlocking blisters, the system reduces stacking height, enabling smaller cartons or increased blister capacity within the same format. This configuration optimises volume usage, reduces packaging material and improves logistics, with potential avoidance of CO₂eq emissions across storage and transport. Requiring no dedicated blister redesign, the module can be activated or bypassed directly from the HMI, ensuring full operational flexibility while supporting more resource‑efficient blister handling.
The GIANT5-A96 produced by IMA Safe sets the benchmark for high‑speed pharmaceutical packaging, reaching 1,300 blisters/minute and 500 cartons/minute. Equipped with the new high‑speed Sombrero feeding system, it ensures precise handling of a wide range of products. At Interpack 2026, the machine will run on mono-PET film and will also serve as the launch platform for IMA’s new robotic line‑clearance technology. This patented solution replaces traditional multi‑camera setups with a single‑camera robotic unit capable of inspecting an entire line, simplifying hardware, maintenance and cleaning while improving accessibility.
The SAAS Series is a family of vertical FFS machines for suppositories, designed by IMA Sarong to deliver high productivity, low noise levels and reliable hygienic performance. The platform integrates modular forming solutions, precise sealing, accurate volumetric dosing and an efficient spiral‑path cooling system for controlled solidification.
