Pharmaceutical Powder Handling Survey – Share Your Insights

Pharmaceutical Powder Handling Survey – Share Your Insights
20 Feb 2026  |
Pharmaceutical manufacturing demands precision, consistency, and regulatory compliance—yet powder handling challenges continue to impact efficiency, product quality, and scale-up performance. From flow interruptions and segregation to moisture sensitivity and transfer issues, even small material behavior changes can create significant operational consequences.

Jenike & Johanson is conducting a short industry survey to better understand the current challenges faced by pharmaceutical manufacturers when handling powders and bulk solids. Our goal is simple: to listen. We want to learn what technical topics, operational pain points, and practical skill gaps are most relevant to engineers and manufacturing teams today.

The survey explores areas such as powder flow characterization, equipment design for reliable dispensing, regulatory considerations (FDA, EMA, cGMP), scale-up challenges from R&D to commercialization, and the role of digital modeling tools such as DEM and CFD in pharmaceutical applications. We also ask about preferred course formats, locations, and timing to ensure any future training initiatives align with industry needs.

The insights gathered will directly inform the development of targeted, application-focused training programs designed specifically for pharmaceutical engineers, process specialists, and operations leaders. By contributing, you help shape educational content that addresses real-world challenges—rather than generic theory.

The survey takes approximately three minutes to complete, and all responses are confidential.

If you work in pharmaceutical manufacturing, development, or process engineering, we invite you to share your perspective and help guide the future direction of powder handling education in the industry.
