Life sciences

Access to clean air and pure gas is critical to life. Our medical gas systems and compressed air solutions meet the strictest standards of air quality. We are passionate about supporting our customers in keeping all our loved ones safe and well.

Air supports life and though it may be all around us, when it comes to patient care, that air needs to be pure and reliable. From non-invasive or intensive care to emergency situations, hospitals need to be equipped for all areas of everyday medical use with compressed air systems. We supply hospitals with high-quality breathing air as well as medical compressed air and oxygen for every application. Our breathing air systems are used in mechanical ventilation, drug delivery, and the testing and drying of medical devices. We also make equipment that provides clean air for surgical tools and drying instruments. Hospitals, dental practices, veterinary labs and clinical work environments all require integrated, stable sources of compressed air, which we set up. But it doesn’t stop there.

Desiccant air dryer: CD⁺ with Cerades™

In the pharmaceutical industry, our Cerades™ desiccant dryer helps keep the production environment dry and our DHS VSD+ dry screw vacuum pumps are optimized for packaging applications. That’s not all. When demand for lifesaving medical device production surges, our extensive range of productivity and quality boosting options for medical manufacturing facilities provides critical support. Finally, as power supply is critical to hospitals, our QIS generators are designed to kick in within seconds of an outage.

 

Our wide range of solutions for the life sciences makes us a trusted partner to healthcare facilities and pharmaceutical manufacturers around the world.
