Navigating the transition to next-generation propellants for pMDIs | On-demand webinar
December 10, 2025
Regulators, health systems and patients expect meaningful progress on sustainability. For pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs), this means planning the transition to low global warming potential (low-GWP) next-generation propellants (NGPs) now, not at the end of the decade.
In this webinar with Pharmaceutical Technology, Craig Somerville, Senior Vice President of Kindeva’s pMDI business unit, shares a practical view of what it takes to move existing products to NGPs while maintaining performance, supply continuity and patient need for MDIs.
Drawing on Kindeva’s pMDI pedigree built on inventing and industrializing the MDI, and its current investments in commercial-scale NGP capability, Craig outlines how a strategic drug delivery CDMO partner can help you move from feasibility to full-scale commercial supply with confidence.
Highlights include:
- The drivers accelerating the shift to NGPs
- What NGP-ready manufacturing and reformulation require
- Key considerations for HFA-152a and maintaining equivalent MDI performance
- How regulators are approaching the transition
- Where Kindeva adds value from feasibility through to commercial supply
