Batch-type agitated reactors serve a wide range of industrial applications. In pharmaceutical manufacturing: blending APIs, crystallization, and temperature-controlled mixing. In chemical processing: polymerization, hydrogenation, and oxidation. In biotechnology: cell culture, fermentation, and enzyme production. In food and beverage: emulsification and thermal processing. In cosmetics: base mixing and batch formulation. Reactors feature jacketed and pressure-rated designs, sanitary and CIP/SIP options, custom agitators and mixing blades, and ASME-coded, National Board, CRN, CE-marked, PED compliant vessels.

Glass-lined is the most common material of construction in IPP's batch-type agitated reactor inventory. Glass-lined reactors are available from Pfaudler and DeDietrich, among other manufacturers. Glass-lined construction provides corrosion resistance for pharmaceutical, chemical, and specialty manufacturing processes. Browse the inventory to see current glass-lined reactor availability.

IPP stocks stainless steel batch reactors across multiple grades including SS 316, SS 316L, SS 304, SS 321, and austenitic stainless steel. Stainless steel reactors serve pharmaceutical, food/beverage, biotech, and chemical processing applications where glass lining is not required. Browse the inventory to see current stainless steel reactor availability.

Yes. IPP stocks Hastelloy batch-type agitated reactors in Hastelloy C-22, C-276, C-4, and other Hastelloy grades. Hastelloy reactors serve highly corrosive chemical processes involving acids, chlorides, and other aggressive media where stainless steel and glass-lined construction are insufficient. Contact IPP for current Hastelloy reactor availability.

IPP stocks titanium batch-type agitated reactors. Titanium offers exceptional corrosion resistance for specialized applications. Due to the limited inventory, contact IPP directly for current availability and specifications on titanium reactors.

Glass-lined reactors have a borosilicate glass coating fused to the interior metal surface, providing excellent corrosion resistance for acidic and alkaline processes common in pharmaceutical and fine chemical manufacturing. Stainless steel reactors use bare metal construction (316, 316L, 304, 321 grades) and are suited for processes where the metal alloy provides sufficient corrosion resistance, such as food/beverage, biotech, and many chemical applications. Glass-lined reactors require re-glassing when the lining is damaged, while stainless steel reactors do not have this maintenance requirement. IPP stocks both glass-lined and stainless steel batch reactors across its inventory.

Buying used batch-type agitated reactors from IPP can save up to 50% of capital and 90% of lead time versus buying new. The exact savings depend on manufacturer, capacity, material of construction, and condition. IPP provides detailed quotes with full specification matching on request. Contact IPP for pricing on specific units from our current batch reactor inventory.

In-stock batch reactors are ready to ship. Reactors requiring re-glassing or other work ship on a timeline that depends on scope. IPP's GPS subsidiary provides new custom fabricated equipment with 12–16 week average delivery. Contact IPP for specific lead times on units of interest. IPP ships from offices in 15 countries worldwide.
