IMPRO INNOVATION

In 1984, IMPRO began manufacturing pharmaceutical equipment in Bloomfield, NJ. The Becton Dickinson Glove Stripper©, IMPRO’s inaugural piece, was created to remove the surgical glove, also known as the Thru Touch Glove©. BD Medical Pharmaceutical Group and IMPRO collaborated on developing a stoppering system which came to be known as the SPU-HYPAK SCF Syringe Stoppering System©. IMPRO exclusively manufactured the SPU for BD Medical Pharmaceutical Group for many years. The SPU was then relaunched with various improvements that allowed the unit to be processed by an autoclave. IMPRO’S Autoclavable Stopper Placement Unit ASPU can stopper up to 160 syringes within a Nitrogen induced chamber in approximately 45 seconds utilizing syringe size of 1.0 mL; (In Single Flush Mode, Setpoints 20,6,25)).

The ASPU system is uniquely designed in that Air, Nitrogen and Vacuum are the only components necessary for a successful operation. The ASPU itself does not require electricity to operate. The ASPU  can be found in facilities throughout the world.
