7 trends in global vaccine development 2025
Vaccine production is characterized by ongoing changes, adaptations and improvements. In this article, we will take a look at 7 trends in global vaccine development.
Vaccines
Cold Chain Handling in Vaccine Manufacturing
Single-Use Technolgies offer the best advantages to guarantee the needs in today's vaccine production. Due to the highly flexible and scalable nature of single-use components they cover the entire biopharmaceutical manufacturing process, including upstream, downstream, fill-finish and the gaps in-between.
With reliable cold chain processes based on advanced single-use technologies, a safe and protected handling of the highly valuable and sensitive vaccines can be guaranteed. They contribute to a safe journey and warrant the single-use bag’s intact arrival at its final destination, keeping its precious contents protected from biocontamination and other damages.

Primary Packaging
IRIS Single-Use Bag (2D or 3D)
Store and ship anything from cell culture samples to large drug substance volumes reliably and on time. 2D or 3D single-use bioprocess containers in any size.
Protect
RoSS® Shell
With the RoSS Shell system, the sensitive single use bag is covered in 3D foam, which is held by a highly robust plastic frame. Bottom and top are made of stainless steel – ideal for the freezeing process and absolutely robust.
downscale
RoSS.KSET
Single use bags with a volume of less than 250ml are covered with a first layer of soft 3D foam which is complemented by an innovative and intuitive locking mechanism. Its robust stainless steel frame protects the single use bag during freezing and shipping.
upscale
RoSS.LIQU
RoSS.LIQU is a container made out of a rigid and smart stainless steel tote to protect 3D single-use bags with large volumes of up to 1000L for shipping applications. Fully robust. Entirely safe. Available now.
Fill & Filtration
RoSS.FILL Bag
With RoSS.FILL, the RoSS shell systems contained in the bag rack can be filled with a speed of up to 300 liters per hour in a fully automated manner. RoSS.FILL is compatible to all single use bags and bottles and can be scaled up by attaching multiple racks.
downscale
RoSS.FILL CGT
Fully automated filling & draining system of multiple small single use bags in cell & gene therapies at highest accuracy.
upscale
RoSS.FILL Base
Fully automated filling & draining system. Up to 12 single use bags ranging from 50mL to 50L. Filling of 1000L 3D single use bags possible.
Freeze & Thaw
Freeze Thaw Platform
The freeze & thaw system RoSS.pFTU is a fully automated and scalable plate-based freezing unit. Both economically and in terms of product stability we have reached the next level. The plate-based platform RoSS.pFTU Large Scale is completely adapted to RoSS shell system for a batch sizes of up to 400L and more.
downscale
RoSS.pFTU Lab Scale
Controlled freezeing and thawing of small batches - more important than ever for cell & gene therapies and clinical studies! The plate-based freeze & thaw platform for labs RoSS.pFTU Lab Scale is the perfect solution for one or multiple single use bags of up to in total 10L. GMP-compliant computerized system optional.
upscale
RoSS.pFTU Large Scale
Up to 400L of controlled freezing in the RoSS.pFTU large scale
Ship, Track & Trace
RoSS.SHIP
RoSS.SHIP offers the your tailored solution for 100% protection from external mechanical influences for RoSS shell systems. Different possible sizes will fulfil your individualized need. With passive cooling, it maintains its ultracold temperatures for international shipments over multiple days. With its measurements it complies with international logistcis standards. Also monitoring temperature and tracking its location is no problem.
