SHL Group - Drug delivery Devices

SHL Group (Scandinavian Health Ltd) is a world-leading solution provider in design, development and manufacturing of advanced drug delivery systems. We work with leading biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies to develop cutting-edge drug delivery devices such as compact disposable auto injectors, reusable pen injectors and complex inhaler systems. These devices are based on standard pre-filled syringes and cartridges, as well as novel primary containers.

Corporate Profile

Accumold began more than 30 years ago with an idea that there had to be a more efficient way to produce small and micro-sized plastic molded parts. The services that were available at the time proved to be insufficient to handle this new demand for high-precision, micro molded components. This challenge in 1985 sprouted Accumold in to action and the first truly dedicated micro molding machine was developed.

In the mid-1980s the micro-electronics boom we know today was still in its infancy. Accumold was ahead of the curve but could see the wave of demand that devices were getting smaller and smaller by the generation. This head start gave the company a huge advantage in perfecting the art and science of micro injection molding. Along the way the company grew and expanded. From their rented garage to the state-of-the-art facility they call home today Accumold has become a world-class molder.

As was in the beginning, Accumold’s single focus is still dedicated to micro molding. The company’s innovations over the years have continued to push the limits of micro plastics. Their expertise in producing complex, tight tolerance and micro-sized moldings is second to none and is sought out by design engineers and development teams worldwide.

Micro Molding

As a forward-looking company with extensive knowledge and experience, SHL has invested significantly into the research and development of next-generation drug delivery devices. These include a range of disposable and reusable injectors with fixed or variable dosing, high dose accuracy and the ability to accommodate high volumes and high viscosities. Our team of industrial designers also works closely with clients and end-user groups to ensure that their needs are translated and incorporated into the design of the device.

Building upon more than 10 years of experience with high viscous drugs, SHL has developed the Rotaject®, a technology for the delivery of formulations with viscosities up to several hundred centipoise.
