Spray Drying

Spray Drying Expertise by a Trusted Partner

Codis’ spray drying capabilities enable a reliable supply throughout the product life cycle, from early-phase development through clinical and launch stages, ultimately to commercial supply and product line extensions.  Our dryers include industry-leading and well-recognized systems like the Procept SD-1, GEA Niro pharmaceutical spray dryer (PSD), and tall form dryers (TFD).

Supporting our core spray drying capabilities at the US and UK sites are onsite research and development (R&D) teams focused on technical program delivery, including analytical method development and transfer, process modeling and simulation with data analytics, and nearly 1,000 m² of dedicated development laboratory space.

Haverhill’s Legacy of Spray Drying Excellence

The Haverhill, UK site is fully licensed for Investigational Medicinal Products (IMP) and also holds a commercial Manufacturer’s/Importer’s Authorization (MIA) issued by the MHRA. Additionally, the site is certified to ISO 14001 and ISO 50001 standards.

Given its diverse commercial product mix and the broad range of markets served globally, the Haverhill site has a long history of interaction with various regulatory agencies. Since 2015, it has successfully passed eleven audits conducted by local and foreign regulatory bodies, with zero critical observations. Currently, with our local regulatory authority, the MHRA, we are classified in their lowest risk tier due to our consistently high inspection performance and the absence of critical observations recorded over the past decade.

In addition to a strong emphasis on quality, the Haverhill site has a proven track record of environmental performance, with significant achievements in carbon reduction, recycling, and reducing process mass intensity.

The Right Scale for Every Phase & Every Program

From product for feasibility studies to multi-ton commercial runs, Codis offers a seamless continuum of capacity.

Data Science & Modeling

Codis applies data science and mechanistic modeling to efficiently map process design spaces and identify robust operating conditions. PAT is vital for monitoring real-time processing performance and, when coupled with our machine learning models, can reveal important long-term trends.

 Our Modeling Toolbox Includes

Mechanistic models 
Statistical & machine learning models
Process Analytical Technology (PAT) informed inline sensing & multivariate control

Technology Transfer

We transfer in processes from innovator organizations or other CDMOs, then scale them using a risk-based, QbD approach. We incorporate all previously generated product and process knowledge, addressing gaps as necessary.  Using this as a base, we scale from Process Design through Process Performance Qualification (PPQ) and Continued Process Verification (CPV). Ultimately, our customers achieve reliable, inspection-ready supply faster without risking product supply.

Our Technology Transfer Protocols Include

Risk assessment
Technology gap analysis
Process and analytical method transfer
Stability assessment
Quality control and release testing
Validation
Regulatory submission support
