Drumwaiter™ raises powder to the top of the drum making it directly accessible and visible. The benefits are faster, more thorough and cleaner removal, decreased waste, lower PPE cost, and improved comfort and safety for your employees. Drumwaiter™ radically enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of powder extraction inside of a Bulk Powder Enclosure, Isolator or Downflow Booth.
Drumwaiter™ improves operations in four critical areas.
Drumwaiter™ makes the job easier!
Drumwaiter™ makes the correct posture possible without constant stretching to reach or see powder.
Drumwaiter™ reduces fatigue, and on the job repetitive strain injuries.
Drumwaiter™ keeps employee arms and bodies out of the powder to reduce opportunity for exposure.
Drumwaiter™ helps keep employees on the job, efficient and comfortable, all critical criteria for employee satisfaction and retention.
Drumwaiter™ makes the job faster!
Production speed need not be determined by the level of product in the drum!
With Drumwaiter™ every particle of powder is fully visible and easily accessible. Drumwaiter™ enables thorough removal of expensive powder quickly, from and off the drum liner, dramatically improving production speed and efficiency.
Drumwaiter™ may eliminate time wasted dealing with Powered Air Purification Respirators (PAPRs).
Drumwaiter™ makes removal of the entire contents of the drum quick, clean, and efficient.
Drumwaiter™ makes the job less expensive!
Drumwaiter™ keeps employee arms and bodies out of the powder to reduce PPE costs.
Drumwaiter™ may eliminate the need for a dedicated room or lab for drum transfers, and it may eliminate the need to wear and maintain Powered Air Purification Respirators (PAPRs). With Drumwaiter™ a drum can remain safely in the Enclosure, Isolator, or Downflow Booth for the entire emptying process.
Drumwaiter™ makes the job cleaner!
Reducing waste and reducing cleaning time, were key objectives in the development of Drumwaiter™.
With Drumwaiter™ every particle of powder is fully visible and easily accessible. Drumwaiter™ enables thorough removal of expensive powder quickly, from and off a drum liner. The result is less residual powder incinerated with the liners.
With Drumwaiter™, there is never any need to remove a liner from a drum to gain access to powder. Keeping liners in the drum ensures that powder that falls off the liner, falls back into the drum where it remains viable and accessible.
Drumwaiter™ improves the operation of high air flow devices, such as Down Flow Booths. With Drumwaiter™ there is never any need to remove a liner from a drum to gain access to powder, so the powder and liner always remains in an area of lower airflow. The result is less airborne particles, meaning less risk of exposure, less cleaning, and less powder wasted in filters.
With Drumwaiter™, there is no need to use clumsy, long handled tools that are prone to spillage when working in a confined area.
Using Drumwaiter™ results in less product waste, less time spent cleaning, and less time wasted changing over between batches or campaigns.
Drumwaiter™ is easier, faster, less expensive, and cleaner!

Drumwaiter™ is a product developed in response to industry need!
The goal of our research and development was to develop a safer, more efficient and more effective way to access potent bulk powders while reducing cost and inherent inefficiencies that exist across the industry.
The result of this research and development is now available in Drumwaiter™.

Drumwaiter™, what is under the lid?
Drumwaiter™ has drawn on over 40 years of experience in Pharmaceutical Products, Science, Research and Manufacturing, to develop a cost effective, low pressure, pneumatic lift device, designed specifically for the purpose of raising potent powder to a more accessible level within the drum.
The Drumwaiter™ proprietary, patent-pending, In-Drum Elevator, is installed into a drum prior to filling. The In-Drum Elevator can fit almost any size or type of drum and has no contact with contents in a lined drum. Activated by an external Drumwaiter™ Footpedal, the two components work together to provide hands free operation to raise, lower, or hold the contents of a drum at any height repeatedly until the drum is empty. When the drum is empty, the In-Drum Elevator is incinerated or disposed of with the drum while the external Footpedal can be reused.
