Sterile powder filling

Sterile powder filling is one of the most demanding processes in pharmaceutical manufacturing. It requires maximum precision, purity, and regulatory compliance to ensure the quality and efficacy of sensitive medicinal products.

Sterile powder filling for pharmaceutical APIs and finished products

At our Frankfurt site, we offer powder formulation services, feasibility studies, and the transfer from laboratory to production scale, as well as sterile filling of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and powder-based finished products.

All filling operations take place  either in an isolator or under laminar airflow (LAF) in Class C cleanrooms in full compliance  with EU GMP  Annex 1.

Our service portfolio

Product development

Development and characterization of powder blends and powder-based APIs, as well as the manufacture  of laboratory and technical batches, for example  for stability studies and preclinical in vivo studies.

Powder filling

Scale-up, manufacturing, and sterile filling of GMP batches of powder-based APIs and finished products with high flexibility in  primary packaging materials (e.g., vials, bottles, containers).

Terminal sterilization, secondary packaging, labeling, and storage

Following manufacturing and filling, products undergo terminal sterilization (e.g., by dry heat or gamma irradiation), are subsequently labeled, and stored under the appropriate  storage conditions (e.g., cold storage, light protection) in qualified and continuously monitored storage areas.


In addition, HWI performs labeling and secondary packaging for clinical studies (including randomization), as well as labeling, packaging, and serialization of commercial products entirely in-house.

Flexible batch sizes

We offer the manufacture  of technical batches, stability batches, and batches for clinical trials and commercial use with batch sizes of up to approx. 10,000 units.

Analytical services and QP certification

In-process controls including flowability, mass, fill volume, container integrity, particle size, and visual inspections ensure consistent batch quality.

We additionally provide release testing and ICH-compliant stability studies, QP certification, and regulatory support throughout the entire drug development process.
