Pharmaceutical
Pharmaceutical – The pharmaceutical industry discovers, develops, produces, and markets drugs for use as medication.
The modern pharmaceutical industry traces its roots back to the mid 1800s when local apothecaries embarked on the wholesale manufacture of medication; by the late 1880s the development of synthetic chemical methods allowed scientists to systematically vary the structure of chemical substances, and growth in the emerging science of pharmacology and ultimately the pharmaceutical industry took place.
Most of the world’s largest pharmaceutical companies are multi-national conglomerates but the UK retains a significant presence in the research, development and production of medication.
Batch control, dosing, consistent flow and temperature control are all critical in these processes and B&D Plastics, with links to the market-leading plastics manufacturers, can provide products to achieve this.
