Located in the pharmaceutical hub of Ireland in a modern “bulk tablet” finish facility, this Pharmaceutical Operation in Cork manufactures high quality solid and capsule formulations for worldwide distribution using innovative new technologies that advance and assure patient care.

 

From its beginnings in 1988, this FDA and IMB approved and licensed, state of the art, multi purpose facility has adapted and grown. With AirPro’s help the site, containing a wide variety of process equipment, has been generating its own inert nitrogen gas since 2008.  Their choice of equipment was a PSA Nitrogen Generation plant supplied and serviced by Airpro Gas Solutions.

 

Pharmaceutical production processes and quality-assurance laboratories commonly use high-purity nitrogen for various purposes, such as packaging, fire suppression, gas chromatography, sample drying, and protecting compounds from the deleterious effects of oxygen or water vapour.

 

With recent technological advancements, AirPro’s on-site Nitrogen Generation equipment can provide purity levels equal to that of liquid nitrogen, helping pharmaceutical manufacturers lower costs without sacrificing quality or efficiency. An AirPro Nitrogen Generator is very convenient for many facilities, read more about the benefits here.

 

As part of their ongoing growth and facility expansion, Fournier have awarded Airpro Gas Solutions the contract to supply and install their next generation PSA Nitrogen Generator plant.  This was assembled off site and a full ‘Factory Acceptance Test’ was conducted and witnessed before disassembly and shipment to Cork for final installation.

 

Fournier’s second AirPro Nitrogen Generation system is now place, producing their total demand for nitrogen gas on their premises, under their complete control. Allowing them to grow production capacity to meet increasing demand  from both developed countries and other, rapidly growing markets throughout the world.
