Pharmaceutical Production - Clean Room Ventilation
Producing pharmaceuticals requires a sterile environment and a very high level of cleanliness. Ventilation must provide the correct contamination & temperature control.
Safe and clean air for healthy lives
For both research and development, as well as mass production: whenever tablets are produced, liquids filled, substrates milled, estrogens or androgen substances produced, or health-endangering materials processed, air filtering is of critical importance.
Solid and liquid products must be protected from contaminants from ambient air. Employees must not be endangered and must be protected with extreme care: i.e., from inhaling toxic aerosols. And not least, the transmission of contaminated air into external areas must be prevented to avoid mutual contamination. Particles dissolved in the air, moreover, must be monitored and separated where they are produced.
Clean air solutions for a fast growing industry.
Biotechnology is a very fast growing industry that requires sterile air and equipment to maintain the required level of cleanliness needed when the main object of this industry is to modify living organisms to aid human purposes.
- Most processes are carried out in a controlled environment by utilizing clean rooms
- Very effective filtration of supply and exhaust air is necessary. A solution must be provide highly reliable ventilation and air management
Contamination Control
- Supply air needs to be filtered in three stages with a HEPA filter at the third stage
- Low turbulence airflow above the area with pharmaceuticals are exposed (almost laminar)
- Overpressure to the neighbouring rooms needs to be maintained at ca. 15Pa
- All surfaces inside of the room should be smooth and easy to clean – rounded corners, reduced numbers of joints
Temperature Control
Temperature control inside of clean and controlled environments is a very important topic. Attention must be paid to condensate-free cooling when inside a pharmaceutical production area, since any moisture that is brought in can become a culture medium.
- FläktGroup has vast experience creating clean air solutions for pharma production site
- Our full HVAC solution comes from a single source thus meaning installation is simple
- Full solution from FläktGroup guarantees increased synergies between all system components
- Requires highly efficient chillers and AHU’s specifically designed for such applications
Clean Room Technology by FläktGroup
Numerous international manufacturers work with FläktGroup‘s Clean Room Technology as a result of our expertise in developing reliable and effective contamination control methods for Clean Rooms.
Clean Room services from FläktGroup permit users to coordinate all critical parameters precisely with the requirements of respective production processes and to systematically control decontamination of room air. These solutions control air pressure, temperature, and moisture – especially the contamination with fine dust, skin particles and bacteria – and keep these contaminants away from products and processes.
Effective and precise clean room HVAC design is essential for semiconductor production and pharmaceutical industries, as well as companies in the chemical industry, space technology, and optics and laser technology perform research and production; where we see that conditions in these industries are increasingly relying upon Clean Room conditions.
Technical, chemical, and biological quality products with highly sensitive manufacturing processes are further processed in hermetically sealed areas that demand room air that is virtually dust-free. The manufacturing process itself, however, requires ambient air absolutely free of particulates.
Our Process
We offer a full portfolio of support every step of the way from 3D design to installation, to reports in order to develop your bespoke project.
With decades of experience in clean rooms, we bring the necessary expertise into your project and help you to create an optimal concept for the clean room, which is energy efficient and reliable.
Once the clean room layout is finalized, we create a 3D model with all little details – to the last screw.
For you to check – and for our production.
All our factories work with the 5S approach and have a best-in-class on-time delivery rate.
In our modern facilities we produce fast standardized products, but are flexible to support you with customized solutions.
The installation is a crucial part in the process. Especially for a clean room. Hence, we have very well trained teams in our core countries. Everywhere else, a supervisor from the factory will be present during the whole installation phase.
We support the finalization of your project by bringing in our long-term partners. You will get a full report, which is complying to all global and local regulations and standards. And – of course – you can be ensured, that your clean room will operate as required.
