Under the agreement, both the companies will develop fluid systems and market single-use tubing, which will be produced by Raumedic and will supply to SSB.
SSB will combine its expertise of designing, manufacturing and validation of single-use systems with Raumedic’s expertise of developing and manufacturing of tubing, to offer better options of fluid handling systems to biopharmaceutical manufacturers.
Further, SSB is set to launch TuFlux with the support of Raumedic, which will help SSB in developing customized solutions and to provide stronger validation and technical support as well as process improvements.
SSB Fluid Management Technologies vice president Jean-Marc Cappi said for their customers of the biopharmaceutical industry, this partnership will yield a powerful combination of single-use bags, filters, connectors, sensors and tubing systems and services.
"Our expertise in characterizing extractables in filters and bags will benefit our tubing technology and hence we will be offering more comprehensive validation packages for our single-use solutions," Cappi said.
