Using camera imaging technology, it offers a modern, flexible and cost-saving alternative to traditional test methods used by pharmaceutical manufacturers.

Since its launch, VisionScan has been installed in 35 pharmaceutical manufacturing sites in over 20 countries worldwide. It has received widespread recognition as a ground-breaking device and has achieved global supplier agreements with two of the world's top four pharmaceutical companies. Significant further growth is expected with the focus on continued innovation.

Paul Kelly, Head of Sales and Marketing at Sepha, commented, “Innovation is at the core of Sepha’s business, so we are extremely proud to have won this award. The success of the VisionScan is the result of continuous teamwork and so the award is a credit to the entire Sepha team.”
