From Lab to Pilot: Accelerating R&D with the MultiBlend® MB100 Powder Blender

In the early stages of product development, consistency is the foundation of success. Transitioning a formulation from a small laboratory test to a pilot-scale batch requires equipment that is both precise and adaptable. The Terriva MultiBlend® MB100 is engineered to bridge this gap, offering a mobile and highly efficient solution for mixing powders and granules.

Designed as a free-standing tumble blender, the MB100 provides the reliability needed to optimize formulations and accelerate the speed-to-market for new products.

Unmatched Versatility for R&D

The MB100 is not limited to a single application. Its design supports a wide range of compatible container sizes, making it an essential tool across diverse industries, including:

  • Pharmaceutical & API Production: Ideal for both primary and secondary solid dosage batches.

  • Nutraceuticals & Food: Ensures uniform distribution of active ingredients and additives.

  • Cosmetics & Chemicals: Perfect for high-value, small-batch blending where precision is paramount.

Engineered for Clean & Contained Environments

Maintaining a sterile and hygienic environment is a core requirement in modern manufacturing. The MB100 is purpose-built for GMP-compliant areas. Its portable, compact footprint allows it to be moved easily between different laboratories or contained production zones, providing:

  • Safe & Portable Blending: Mobile design for flexible floor layouts.

  • Hygienic Operation: Smooth surfaces and high-quality construction for easy cleaning.
