Glatt Ingenieurtechnik was commissioned with the planning of the process engineering systems including media supply, control and automation of the process units as well as for the safety engineering.

Of course, the guests were also to be shown what the employees work on every day: the production of Glatt drum coaters. During factory tours in the morning and afternoon, it was possible to visit the factory halls where over the years more than 1100 coaters have been built and delivered to customers all over the world.

In the welcoming speeches, it became clear that the 350-strong workforce of GIT has every reason to be proud: “Today, GIT is a modern company,” said Dr. Reinhard Böber. “Plants from Weimar can be found all over the world – in Europe from Norway to Italy, as well as in South Africa, the USA or in Asia.”

Drug formulation is a fine art and a matter for specialists. Even though many pharmaceutical companies like to take the path of least resistance when launching a drug on the market and, for the sake of simplicity, press the active ingredient into a tablet with a few excipients. But at the latest when the topic of life cycle management comes up, good advice is expensive, and that’s when Glatt Pharmaceuticals comes into play.
