Powering every breath you give: Our world-class Loughborough site
April 17, 2026
Pulmonary drug delivery is undergoing a period of rapid change. Developers must bring increasingly complex therapies to market while preparing inhalers for the transition to low-Global Warming Potential (GWP) propellant technologies.
Success depends on having expertise across formulation, device integration and scalable manufacturing capabilities.
Kindeva’s Loughborough, UK facility stands ready for this evolution. Our global centre of excellence for metered-dose inhalers (MDIs) combines expertise in advanced formulation labs, analytical capabilities and commercial filling infrastructure in one integrated environment.
This integrated environment supports programs from early feasibility to commercial supply. Formulation expertise, device engineering and scalable filling capabilities work together to help developers advance pulmonary therapies while preparing inhalers for the transition to low-GWP.
The result is a platform designed to simplify development, reduce risk and support the future of sustainable inhalation therapies.
In this eBook, you’ll learn:
- How Kindeva’s Loughborough site delivers comprehensive MDI development and manufacturing services.
- What makes the facility uniquely equipped to support low-GWP reformulation programs.
- Why integrated device, formulation and filling capabilities matter more than ever.
- How this facility is shaping the future of sustainable, scalable pulmonary therapies.
Download the eBook to explore how Kindeva’s Loughborough center of excellence supports scalable pulmonary development and commercial manufacturing, and how it is helping shape the future of sustainable inhalation therapies.

Sterile fill finish Q&A: What should sponsors ask before manufacturing begins?
Successful sterile fill finish depends on decisions made long before a product reaches the filling line. Process understanding, technology transfer strategy, contamination control and commercial readiness all influence how confidently a program can progress into Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) manufacturing. In this Q&A, Kindeva experts share practical perspectives on the questions pharmaceutical and biotech teams […]

Why successful technology transfers can start by slowing down
Technology transfer programs often face pressure to move quickly, but rushing through the early stages can lead to costly execution delays when teams start before internal alignment is complete. By slowing down, teams can streamline the process, ensure alignment from the start, and challenge assumptions before the transfer begins. In other words, slow is smooth; […]

Bridging the gap between upstream precision and downstream excellence in aseptic fill finish
The pressure to bring complex therapies, including biologics and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists, to market quickly has placed a significant strain on commercial production networks. As drug developers respond to growing demand for these therapies, the transition from bench top discovery to commercial aseptic fill finish volumes can happen quickly. But, when upstream processing scales […]

Turning media fill data into stronger aseptic control in an Annex 1 era
Media fills provide an important demonstration of aseptic process performance, as the information gathered during a simulation gives manufacturers a stronger understanding of how the process behaves over time. As companies must now translate their media fill processes to meet Annex 1 expectations, the way this information is reviewed can provide valuable insight into aseptic […]

Rethinking media fill strategy in the Annex 1 era
Media fills play a central role in aseptic process validation, providing a practical demonstration that a manufacturing process can be carried out without introducing microbial contamination. However, under the revised EU GMP Annex 1 guidance, the focus has shifted, and an acceptable final incubation result is no longer sufficient on its own. Now, media fills […]

What’s behind the decisions shaping successful fill finish programs?
Advanced equipment and available cleanroom capacity are important considerations when choosing a sterile fill finish CDMO partner, but they only form part of the decision. As a drug program nears cGMP manufacturing, careful consideration of technical, quality, and operational readiness is essential, as it shapes how confidently a program can progress. These considerations take place […]

Building sterile injectable manufacturing capacity for growing GLP-1 demand
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are being prescribed more frequently, increasing pressure on sterile injectable manufacturing networks. To effectively serve expanding patient populations, developers must increase output while maintaining product quality and regulatory compliance without disrupting the supply of other therapies. Meeting the growing GLP-1 demand requires manufacturing models that can manage high-volume programs alongside […]

Can one quality system manage complexity across multiple drug delivery platforms?
As drug development portfolios expand across multiple delivery platforms, increasing complexity places quality systems under greater strain. For sponsors considering a CDMO, it is essential to know that the Quality Management System (QMS) can provide consistency while allowing teams to respond appropriately to the requirements of each product. A harmonized QMS can provide that framework […]
