Excellence United to Debut in North America

Six specialty equipment companies have formed a network offering technology, service, and project management for all stages of pharmaceutical manufacturing. Launched at Interpack 2011 in Dusseldorf, Excellence United is an alliance of companies comprising more than 4800 people, including an extensive international service network with 600 employees.

The members of Excellence United are Bausch-Ströbel, Fette Compacting, Glatt, Harro Höfliger, Uhlmann, and Visiotec. These companies will share a pavilion (Booth 1524) at Interphex 2012 in New York City to kick-off their collaboration in the North American market.

All member companies are independent, medium-sized family companies and each one plays an acknowledged technical role as innovators in their respective segment of the market, the group shares in a press release. “Our aim is to take advantage of our joint offerings to significantly improve the productivity and efficiency of our customers’ production, development and packaging processes,” states Siegfried Drost, CEO at Uhlmann and spokesperson of Excellence United, in the release. “Over the past few years, we’ve practically been passing each other the baton in numerous equipment projects involving operators pursuing a best-in-class approach. By bundling our competencies, we can now offer customers this performance from a single source. They in turn benefit from improved interface management, comprehensive documentation and on-site support.”
