RheaVita Corporation RheaLyo Mono System
Reduction of time/cost in process development and improvement of quality in freeze-drying of biopharmaceuticals.
The "RheaLyo Mono Single Vial Unit" is a freeze-drying device specifically designed for research and development, based on continuous freeze-drying technology. It is well-suited for very rapid formulation, process development, and optimization with minimal material consumption. From vial-level to continuous freeze-drying production lines (GMP Flex), it enables quick and easy process development and production scale-up based on numbering up. 【Features】 ■ Spin freeze vials that allow precise control of cooling rates ■ Control of primary freezing and secondary drying using infrared ■ Rapid freeze-drying is possible due to the thin product layer and large surface area ■ Complete monitoring, control, and inspection of vials ■ Reduction of quality variation for each vial *At the 2024 CPHI, RheaVita's GMP-Flex continuous freeze-drying system received the "Manufacturing Excellence" award! *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Monitoring and Control of Product Temperature Using Thermal Imaging During Continuous Freeze-Drying Process of Unit Dose Formulations - Aug 2019
In recent years, the pharmaceutical industry has rapidly advanced the development of biopharmaceuticals such as therapeutic proteins and vaccines. These drugs face challenges regarding stability in aqueous solution, which is why freeze-drying has become an essential technology for long-term storage. Traditional freeze-drying is conducted in a batch process that handles multiple vials at once, resulting in long processing times and high costs. Furthermore, controlling the freezing process is difficult, leading to variations in ice crystal size among vials, which causes inconsistencies in drying rates and poses challenges for ensuring product quality uniformity. Additionally, the heat distribution within the drying chamber is uneven, raising concerns about the risk of product collapse and quality variability. To address these issues, a new manufacturing technology called "continuous freeze-drying" has emerged in recent years. This technology combines continuous supply of raw materials with continuous discharge of products, achieving shorter processing times, cost reductions, and smaller equipment. Moreover, it reduces quality differences between vials, allowing for the efficient production of uniform and stable products. This groundbreaking technology has been further commercialized by RheaVita since its introduction in 2019, and in March 2025, a GMP-compliant system was implemented at their headquarters in Belgium.

We will exhibit at the 41st Annual Meeting of the Japanese DDS Society and the accompanying exhibition.
We will be exhibiting at the "41st Annual Meeting of the Japanese DDS Society" (at Makuhari Messe International Conference Hall) to be held from June 17 to 18, 2025, with a panel display by RheaVita. RheaVita is a pioneer in continuous freeze-drying technology, providing innovative solutions for formulation development and manufacturing processes. In this exhibition, we will introduce the company's technology through a panel display. The installation of the "GMP-Flex" continuous freeze-drying system, compliant with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards, has been completed at our headquarters in Belgium, enabling its application in actual formulation development and commercial manufacturing. We warmly invite you to visit our booth during the event. We look forward to seeing you there.
