Key Terms

peristaltic pumps, single-use assemblies, PROFINET-enabled connectivity, tangential flow filtration

4 terms

peristaltic pumps medical

"standard, configurable, and engineered-to-order peristaltic pumps, single-use assemblies"

A peristaltic pump is a device that moves liquids by rhythmically squeezing flexible tubing, much like how a hand pushes toothpaste along a tube; the liquid never contacts the pump mechanism, only the replaceable tubing. Investors care because these pumps are widely used in medical devices, drug manufacturing and lab automation, creating steady demand for both equipment and disposable tubing, and exposure to regulatory approvals, recurring consumable sales and supply-chain risks.

single-use assemblies technical

"standard, configurable, and engineered-to-order peristaltic pumps, single-use assemblies, and systems."

Single-use assemblies are disposable sets of tubes, bags, filters and connectors used once in manufacturing or testing of drugs and biological products, then thrown away. Like swapping a fresh coffee filter for each brew, they cut cleaning time and cross-contamination risk, speed production scale-up, and reduce upfront equipment costs—factors that can lower operating risk and influence margins and capital needs for companies in life sciences and biomanufacturing.

PROFINET-enabled connectivity technical

"with PROFINET-enabled connectivity that supports interoperability between Masterflex peristaltic pumps"

PROFINET-enabled connectivity means industrial equipment and control systems are fitted to communicate using the PROFINET standard, an Ethernet-based protocol that lets machines exchange data quickly and reliably on factory floors and industrial sites. For investors, it matters because this capability improves automation, reduces production downtime and maintenance costs, and makes equipment more attractive to buyers who want plug-and-play interoperability and easier remote monitoring—factors that can boost sales, service revenue and long-term asset value.

tangential flow filtration medical

"including connected tangential flow filtration (TFF), storage, and pump solutions."

Tangential flow filtration is a method for separating and concentrating proteins, viruses, or other biological particles by passing a liquid parallel to a filter surface so particles are retained while fluid and small impurities pass through. Investors care because it affects how efficiently and reliably biotech firms manufacture and purify therapeutic products—impacting production speed, yield, cost, and regulatory compliance much like a better assembly line boosts output and quality control.

Company to attend INTERPHEX 2026 in New York City from April 21-23

RADNOR, Pa., April 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Avantor, Inc. (NYSE: AVTR), a leading global provider of mission-critical products and services to the life sciences and advanced technology industries, today announced the expansion of its Masterflex brand across its fluid handling portfolio, bringing together standard, configurable, and engineered-to-order peristaltic pumps, single-use assemblies, and systems.

"For decades, Masterflex has been synonymous with precision and reliability in peristaltic pumps used in fluid handling," said Benoit Gourdier, Executive Vice President, Bioscience & Medtech Products, Avantor. "Unifying our portfolio under the Masterflex name makes it easier for customers to tailor solutions, for their specific processes and molecules, within a consistent framework, supporting smoother transition from development to production."

Designed for secure fluid transfer and reliable connections, Masterflex solutions support consistent performance as processes scale. The portfolio continues to advance bioprocessing applications, with PROFINET-enabled connectivity that supports interoperability between Masterflex peristaltic pumps and process control systems. New, purpose-built storage containers further support safe, efficient fluid handling and transfer across workflows. Combined with Avantor's J.T. Baker^® high-purity process chemicals, these solutions provide a more unified bioprocessing approach.

At INTERPHEX 2026
Avantor will be attending INTERPHEX 2026, in New York City from April 21-23. The Company will demonstrate how this expansion enables biopharmaceutical customers to more easily select, configure, and deploy fluid handling solutions, reducing complexity and supporting more efficient scale-up.

At Booth #3643, Avantor will showcase fully operational integrated fluid management systems, demonstrating controlled fluid transfer, seamless connectivity, and scalability from benchtop mixing through production-scale processing, including connected tangential flow filtration (TFF), storage, and pump solutions.

INTERPHEX Technical Presentation
Zeiny Aubdoollah, Scientist, R&D Applications at Avantor, will present how fluid handling technologies support performance from development through production and describe a study demonstrating the scalability of Avantor Magnetic Mixers. The presentation will take place on April 21, 1:00–1:30 PM EST in Tech Theater B inside the exhibit hall.
