Aston Particle Technologies

Aston Particle Technologies (APT) is developing a proprietary powder coating/formulation platform – isothermal dry particle coating (iDPC™) – that aims to revolutionise the manufacture of powder-based respiratory, biologic and oral medicines. Distinct advantages of iDPC over other powder handling technologies lie in the simple, controllable and predictable manufacture of high-performance dry powder formulations across broad concentration ranges achieved at low shear.

The company is led by a management team that contains innovative scientists and highly experienced pharma-industry executives, which, through partnership with pharma, aims to embed iDPC into the manufacturing supply chains of the future.

Aston Particle Technologies is an Aston University (Birmingham, UK) spin-out company, formed in 2016.
