Since our inception in 1976, Thermal Press International (TPI) has been at the forefront of precision thermal and plastic assembly technologies, pioneering the development of thermal press machines. Today, we remain an industry leader in producing equipment for manufacturing high-quality bioreactor bags across various sectors.
Why the Shift to Bioreactor Bags?
Research conducted by BioPlan Associates reveals a significant trend: over 70% of biopharmaceutical manufacturing companies are now opting for single-use bioreactor bags. The rationale behind this shift is clear – companies are realizing substantial cost savings and operational advantages by embracing disposable plastic systems over traditional steel counterparts.
The merits of adopting bioreactor bags are manifold:
Sterility: Single-use bags drastically reduce the risk of contamination. With their sterile nature and tight seals, the likelihood of microbial contamination is greatly minimized.
Cost Reduction: Compared to traditional systems, companies employing disposable bioreactor bags benefit from significantly lower startup investment costs.
Environmental Impact: The environmental benefits are profound. Bioreactor bags can be swiftly incinerated, slashing environmental waste. Additionally, by eliminating the need for sterilizing large metal vats, companies achieve substantial savings in water consumption.
Consider the monumental cost savings achievable with single-use bags, especially in the context of producing monoclonal antibodies crucial for treating COVID-19 patients. Typically manufactured in 2,000-liter batches, companies leveraging single-use bags are witnessing up to 30% cost savings compared to stainless-steel facilities. The surge in bioreactor bag usage during the COVID-19 pandemic underscores their pivotal role in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
