Our Technologies

The cutting-edge technology used at Chemo's plants affords us enormous flexibility and versatility, as well as allowing us to produce our medicines in compliance with the strictest quality standards.

API TECHNOLOGIES

Our chemical plants have capacity to undertake chemical and fermentation processes. Thanks to the versatility of our facilities and the broad scope of operations - temperature, pressure and the equipment materials used, among other factors - our plants are able to produce a range of different reactions.

We also have in-house capacity for lyophilisation and various physical treatments, including micronization, compaction and milling, for example, which are crucial for us to meet our customers' needs. Our plants operate at various different scales: laboratory, kilo lab, pilot plant and industrial scale production.

FDF TECHNOLOGIES

Our facilities offer robust industrial capacity with sophisticated, sector-leading technology for the production of tablets and capsules for immediate and modified release dosage forms. The plants feature specific areas for soft capsules, foam products, semi-solids and osmotic delivery systems, as well as an entire building dedicated to respiratory products.

At Chemo, we have one of the world's largest fluid bed processors, with a capacity of 1,300kg per batch. We are equipped to manufacture hormonal products, including granules, oral tablets, vaginal pessaries, soft capsules, creams and vaginal rings. We also specialise in manufacturing proton-pump inhibitors and steroids.

Thanks to our reinvestment and continuous improvement programmes, we now have two injectables plants in Spain, one of which manufactures injectable hormonal products, as well as a plant in India which produces oral solid dosage formulations.
