As a key component of the Donaldson Life Sciences division, we actively engage in the design, engineering and manufacturing of benchtop, pilot, and industrial-scale fermenters, bioreactors, filtration solutions, and other process equipment.
With our widespread network of production, sales, and service branches around the globe, we efficiently cater to a diverse international customer base.
Donaldson Company, Inc., a leading worldwide provider of innovative filtration products and solutions, today announced it acquired Solaris.
“By being part of Donaldson, we will have the global scale and financial flexibility to continue delivering on our growth plans, and we are thrilled about this opportunity”
Matteo Brognoli.
Though initially more industrially focused, today Solaris divides its activities in two branches Upstream & Downstream solutions
Solaris Lab, dedicated to laboratory scale equipment from 120ml up to 20 L, and Solaris Industrial, committed to totally customizable cGMP pilot-industrial equipment up to 30.000 L, and to the design and manufacturing of full turnkey solutions.
Our Bioprocessing Equipment covers both Upstream & Downstream solutions. The upstream stage has always been our core business. (Media preparation tanks, sterilizers, laboratory, or pilot/industrial bioreactors...)
For the downstream stage, we offer different solutions for filtration, such as tangential flow filtration skids (TFF) and, with Donaldson's support, Full Flow Filtration skids.
