Pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and cosmetics
The successful production of pharmaceuticals and cosmetics depends on the purity of the intermediate and end products used in manufacturing. At API Schmidt-Bretten, we understand the need for the highest levels of operational reliability and safety in all components of a production facility.
Our SIGMA plates feature special surfaces to prevent precipitates in the flow chamber, and our PTFE-encapsulated elastomer seals offer high chemical resistance to a wide range of solvents and chemicals. The frame design and processing of the materials used exceed the highest quality standards. Our Schmidt SIGMASTAR® evaporators can be used for virtually all evaporation processes. The SIGMASTAR evaporator operates smoothly and successfully, especially with more demanding products, viscous streams, slurries, and liquids prone to contamination that cannot be processed using thin-film evaporators.

Typical applications
- Concentration of alcoholic solutions and fats and oils
- Condensation of solvents from production boilers
- Consistent system separation of media in special safety heat exchangers
- Cooling and heating of water for injection purposes (WFI) and ultra pure water
- Cooling and heating for shampoos, shower gels, fabric softeners and liquid detergents
- Cooling and heating with heat transfer oils for batch and mixing containers
- Cooling of donor blood and plasma
- Cooling of suspensions
- Cooling of surfactants
- Evaporation of water and aqueous solutions and alcohols
- Evaporation systems for traditional Chinese medicine, medicinal herb extracts, tea, coffee and a variety of extracts
- Thermal processing of essential oils
- Thermal processing of infusion solutions
