In 1979, the former Hoechst AG firm recognized the advantages of the Aero Pump system. It commissioned the development of a nasal pump with consistent dosage accuracy throughout the entire product cycle. The preparation is still successful on the marketplace today.

In the 1980s, Aero Pump enjoyed immense success both in the engineering and the pharmaceutical sectors with specially designed developments and benefited from its expertise in developing CFC-free pumps. The AP4 pump was highly successful, especially in the shoe care market.

Aero Pump and its partners developed the COMOD® system for preservative-free eyedrops in 1993. It is based on an airless pump that withdraws liquids from a container with an inner bag without letting surrounding air flow back in, thereby eliminating the risk of contamination during usage. The three companies involved in developing the system went on to found Ursatec Verpackung GmbH as a joint distribution entity.
In 1997, the 3K® nasal pump was developed to complement the COMOD® system. The new 3K® system was incredibly successful on the preservative-free nasal spray market, one of the reasons being the complex Aero Pump module system, which was designed to respond to customer needs quickly

Aero Pump’s continuous growth meant that an integrated production and quality concept was very much required by the late 1990s. In 2001, Aero Pump moved into its new headquarters, which are tailored to the production requirements of the pharmaceutical industry, in the German town of Hochheim am Main – the exact location where Egon Schwab first founded his company.

The innovative airless AeroLin and Polyfaero® all-in-one systems open up new possibilities for hygienic packaging and user-friendly production of sensitive products.
The patented, preservative-free multiple-dose eyedrop system revolutionized the market for ophthalmologic primary packaging in 2006.

Alexandra Paasch and Stefan Christ have been supporting company founder Egon Schwab as executive board members since 2007.
The number of precision pumps sold has passed the 100 million mark. The start-up of a work-flow-optimized expansion in 2009 doubled the production area and allowed for extensive goods flow automation. Establishment in the pharmaceutical sector was officially marked by DIN ESO 15378 certification. The submission of the first DMF signaled Aero Pump’s entrance onto the American market, and distribution is booming with the sale of 126 million pumps.

So much activity requires more space: a new administrative building has been being planned since 2010.
