As a global partner to the biopharmaceutical industry, Asahi Kasei Bioprocess helps biologics manufacturers safely and efficiently produce medicines that patients can trust, by dependably supplying innovative yet exceptionally reliable bioprocess consumables, equipment and scientific support services.

Our portfolio is anchored by Planova™ virus removal filters. First released in 1989 as the world's first hollow fiber filter developed specifically for removing viruses from biotherapeutic drug products, Planova™ filters ensure viral safety of biopharmaceutical drug products, thanks to their high quality and consistent performance. Leveraging 30 years of experience, we continue to provide our customers with products, services and expertise to achieve assurance that is beyond expectation.

We also manufacture the award-winning MOTIV™ family of inline buffer formulation systems, each of which is built upon our powerful automation platform: OCELOT™ System Control. Standard 3-pump and 5-pump systems — as well as custom configurations — generate precise, reproducible buffers on-demand from stock concentrates to meet almost any cost, space, or performance need. Buffer formulation occurs in parallel via our patented dynamic recirculation blender while feedback control and process analytical technology (PAT) maintain pH and conductivity setpoints.
