We have single-use equipment for several purposes
The use of single-use technologies is an important trend in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology market thanks to the growing development of biologically derived drugs. Single-use systems have many advantages compared to stainless-steel systems. They save time as they are intended to be disposed of immediately after use. Thus, they do not require detailed cleaning and disinfection, as is the case with stainless-steel facilities. By disposing of the single-use components after each batch, single-use technologies also help to reduce the risk of cross-contamination. Single-use systems are thus advantageous in productions with small batches, where there are many changes in which products are produced. With single-use systems, you also achieve great flexibility and an open design, where we can assemble what you specify. We have a large team of experienced single-use engineers available who can adapt the systems to exactly your wishes and needs.

At Alflow we have a large selection of single-use equipment for multiple purposes. In our range, you can experience, among other things:
- Hoses
- Fittings
- Assemblies – barbed and moulded
- Bottles and containers
- Hose sealers and welders
- Pass-through systems
- Clamps
- Bags
- Pumps
- Valves
- and many more
Our single-use hoses are manufactured in TPE (thermoplastic elastomer). They are flexible, transparent, sterilizable and malleable biopharmaceutical tubes for liquid processing. That is, they maintain their physical properties after sterilization processes, resist kinking, remain transparent for visible product flow and do not become rubbery. They can also be sealed and welded with our hose sealers and welders for a tight and sterile seal.
Our molded assemblies – also called molded systems – are complete, customized solutions that eliminate the risk of leakage, as there is only one component in a system. So in addition to the fact that it is both faster and easier to assemble, there are also no assemblies that can become leaky. Another advantage of molded systems is that they have a completely smooth internal surface. This provides a laminar flow without obstructions. This also prevents the product from settling in any crevices. Our single-use pumps work with the help of four diaphragms, which are driven one by one by a connecting plate that moves back and forth in and out of its central position in one movement, which is generated by an eccentric shaft. The four pump chambers work in the same way as the human heart, and this causes the product flow to constantly move forward in a volumetric, uniform manner that provides low shear and low pulsation. The low pulsation provides a uniform flow, which can be an advantage in relation to filtration, regulation and flow measurement.
