About MHS Pharma

MHS Pharma is a manufacturers’ representative firm serving the pharmaceutical industry since 1996. We sell capital process equipment to pharmaceutical manufacturers, CDMOs, and engineering firms across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic United States.

What we do

We are the regional sales contact for eight equipment manufacturers in a twelve-state territory: New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina. If you are specifying or purchasing process equipment for a pharmaceutical facility in these states, we are the local contact for quotes, budget pricing, equipment trials, and project support.

We also work outside our home territory from time to time. If your project is elsewhere, reach out anyway: we will either work with you directly or make sure you are connected to the right people for any of our product lines.

Equipment we represent

• Roller compactors and dry granulation systems: Gerteis
• Powder transfer systems and vacuum conveying: DEC Group
• Rigid-wall containment isolators and downflow booths: DEC Group
• Split butterfly valves and aseptic transfer systems: ChargePoint Technology
• Glass-lined reactors, nutsche filters, filter dryers, vacuum dryers, and evaporators: 3V Tech
• Pharmaceutical sieves and separators: Russell Finex
• Mills for pharmaceutical milling and sizing: Frewitt
• CIP and SIP skids and COP parts washers: McFlusion
• Blenders, drum tippers, and lifting systems: CDM

Who we work with

• Pharmaceutical manufacturers, from the world’s ten largest pharmaceutical companies to hundreds of mid-size and small companies across the territory.
• CDMOs and contract manufacturers at every scale.
• The engineering and design firms that specify equipment for facility projects.

We sell technically. Capital equipment purchases in pharmaceutical manufacturing run long cycles through engineering, process development, quality, and procurement, and we work those projects from early specification through installation alongside our principals’ teams.

Typical projects

The same equipment lines come together differently depending on the process. Projects we typically support include:

• ADC and high-potency API manufacturing: payload and linker processing built on contained charging and transfer, glass-lined and alloy reactors, filter dryers, vacuum dryers, and contained milling.
• High containment: isolators, downflow booths, split butterfly valves, and contained granulation from OEB 3 to OEB 5. More: pharmaceutical powder containment, containment isolators in pharmaceutical manufacturing, and how to contain a roller compactor.
• Oral solid dose: dry granulation, milling, sieving, blending, and material handling for tablet and capsule production. More: inline sieving after bowl inversion.
• Continuous manufacturing lines: continuous dry granulation, integrated milling and sieving, and automated powder transfer feeding continuous OSD processes.
• Sterile fill-finish: aseptic transfer valves, aseptic isolators, and SIP systems for sterile manufacturing suites. More: the ChargePoint Actis aseptic transfer system.
• Drug substance and API processing: reactors, nutsche filters, filter dryers, and evaporators, with CIP and COP systems around them. More: cleaning glass reactors and filter dryers.
