Facilities
Armstrong's manufacturing facility is located in Canton,
MA.
High speed, automated filling and
packaging lines can accommodate a wide array of
container and closure combinations and are capable of
filling solution and suspension products using
cold-filling and pressure-filling techniques. The
commercial packaging equipment has vision systems and
bar code readers to ensure component and code
verification.
The
facility’s current configuration supports the
production of both Metered Dose Inhalers (MDIs) and nasal products.
Armstrong's state-of-the-art facility houses the Analytical and R&D
Laboratories, packaging line and warehouse.
Armstrong’s QC Analytical
Laboratories are equipped to conduct the latest and most
sophisticated tests on raw material and finished
products. These laboratories can perform full
release and stability tests at room temperature,
accelerated and cycling conditions. Quality
Control is performed on-line using statistical process
control – X-bar and R charts. In addition to the
modern analytical instruments, such as GC, HPLC, UV, and
FTIR, the R&D Laboratory is equipped with a complete
array of inhalation and nasal spray equipment. The
highly automated instruments allow Armstrong’s
scientists to perform research critical to aerosol and nasal products.
