FAQS

Selling or buying from Poseidon Pharmaceutical UK Limited


Your company may be looking to purchase a certain item of processing equipment. This could be to trial a product or to increase production capabilities. Good quality pre owned equipment is an excellent option. We regularly take in equipment from leading manufacturers such as – Manesty, Fette, Killian, Korsch, Swiftpack, Lock, Safeline , Aeromatic Fielder etc.


Alternatively, you may need to dispose of equipment. You may need larger capacity equipment or your product has changed. Disposing of equipment is a great way of freeing up valuable space and seeing a return on assets. You may have tablet presses, blenders, dedusters, metal checks, coaters or packaging equipment. Poseidon Pharmaceutical UK Limited is interested in purchasing.


Selling to us
