Pharmaceutical

As an innovator in applied engineering, John Crane is well equipped to address the unique and challenging requirements of the pharmaceutical industry. We engineer our products to meet the industry’s safety and reliability standards — as well as local environmental regulations — so that our chemical processing customers can increase their uptime and lower their license fees. From clean-in-place components to batch documentation and certification of material integrity, John Crane provides pharmaceutical processing companies with the engineered components and services they need.

Field-tested Solutions

John Crane is a recognized world leader in the design, manufacture and supply of solutions for pharmaceutical processors. Our Technology Testing Centers represent the industry’s most advanced development facilities. To maintain ISO 9001:2008 certification, we test our components using element analysis tools — CSTEDY and CTRANS — that simulate seal face behavior in real-world conditions.

Through rigorous testing and continual improvement, we’ve designed a number of industry-specific components that help optimize performance, efficiency and reliability. Some address specific fluid-handling problems, while others mitigate friction, wear and contamination with non-contacting, spiral groove lift-off technology. Many of our products even provide 100 percent containment of fugitive emissions, and we have more than 200 global rapid-response facilities available anytime for service, support and repair.
