The design of any cleanroom should be carried out by experienced professionals who have a deep understanding of pharmaceutical regulations and best practices.
In addition to being an industrial hardware supplier, NGS also is a supplier of pharma-wall and modular cleanrooms. Our manufacturing design experts offer the highest standards of quality, safety, and compliance. Our in-house capabilities allow the full range of project management from the initial design concept to cleanroom fabrication and in-person final installation.
Factors Crucial to Success
Compliance with Regulations
Pharmaceutical cleanrooms must adhere to strict regulations and guidelines, such as those set by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and other regulatory bodies. Good design ensures that the cleanroom meets all necessary requirements, including air quality standards, contamination control, and hygiene practices.
Contamination Control
Cleanrooms are designed to minimize the risk of contamination, which is critical for pharmaceutical manufacturing. Good cleanroom design focuses on factors like precision engineering for flush-fit of doors and windows, HEPA air filtration, proper airflow, and the segregation of different processes to prevent cross-contamination. This helps maintain product integrity and ensures the safety of pharmaceutical products.
Operator / Safety
Design should always consider the safety and well-being of personnel working within the facility, including considerations like ergonomic workstations, proper ventilation, adequate lighting, and the use of appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE). Designing with worker safety in mind improves productivity, reduces the risk of accidents, and promotes a positive work environment.
Efficiency and Productivity
Effective design enhances operational efficiency and productivity – by optimizing workflow, equipment layout, and storage arrangements, cleanroom design can streamline processes, minimize downtime, and maximize output. Efficient design also facilitates easy access to utilities, maintenance, and cleaning procedures, ensuring smooth operations.
Future Flexibility of the Cleanroom Design
Good design allows for future expansion and adaptability to changing needs – pharmaceutical manufacturing requirements evolve over time, so designs should be flexible enough to accommodate new technology, process changes, and increased production capacity. (Planning for scalability during the design phase reduces the need for major modifications or expensive renovations down the line.)
