Sterile testing in aseptic production
Performing the sterile test process in isolators as part of the manufacturing process is established state of the art. In addition to ergonomic and design-specific detailed solutions in the isolator, the process and the individual process steps play a decisive role in carrying out a safe and meaningful sterile test.
Temperature mapping and bearing qualification
"Temperature mapping" and "warehouse qualification" are terms often heard in pharmaceutical/food logistics. But what is actually behind them and what are the underlying regulations and guidelines? ELPRO's experts would like to give you a brief insight into these topics in order to better understand the steps of a warehouse qualification project. Furthermore, you are invited [...]
Hygiene initial inspection and VDI 6022
Contents and obligations of VDI 6022 as well as hygiene requirements for ventilation systems and devices in cleanrooms Ventilation systems are the basic prerequisite for the operation of a cleanroom. These must be professionally planned, built, maintained and inspected. They ensure that: - Only supply air with the desired air quality enters the room- The differential pressure to the neighboring rooms is maintained [...]
Renting a cleanroom instead of building - new ways and possibilities
Cleanrooms are becoming increasingly popular. However, not everyone who could use one can or wants to afford one. As a result, investors are gradually focusing on alternative usage concepts. But renting a cleanroom? Reservations are still high, even if they are unfounded. Cleanrooms are on the rise. That can be said without exaggeration. In addition to the classic [...]
Project Management Office (PMO) - Relevance for major projects
Major projects in the pharmaceutical industry are generally characterized by high complexity and enormous time pressure. In addition to the usual execution models such as EPCM, forms of partnership-based execution from the Anglo-Saxon world are also finding their way into Europe. However, all models pose similar challenges to the client and therefore to project management. Stringent interface management and maximum transparency, [...]
Resilience & sustainability
Critical environments such as laboratories and cleanrooms have extraordinarily high demands on the function and availability of their infrastructure, and moving air is an essential protective barrier: an interruption of just a few seconds can lead to the contamination of an entire production batch and pose a significant safety risk for employees. The environmental parameters must precisely and continuously meet the product requirements in order to ensure consistent [...]
Cleanroom loudspeaker
The loudspeaker specialist DNH offers the world's only cleanroom loudspeaker certified to ISO 14644, 1-14 for cleanroom class 1. And which is also first class in terms of sound.
Laboratories as a real estate asset class
A new trend has recently emerged in the field of laboratory projects in Germany: Increasingly, "rental laboratories" or incubators are being set up by project developers for users who are usually not fixed. While this is already common practice in some European countries, laboratories in Germany have so far mainly been planned and created by the users themselves. The particular challenges for users [...]
It's IoT time - networking in a life science ecosystem
Digitalization, IoT, cloud and software-as-a-service are not a flash in the pan: how can "non-smart devices" also be networked and how can this offer added value for laboratories, cleanrooms, pharmaceutical production and critical storage in particular? By linking data from different systems and devices, new perspectives and conclusions can be drawn about measurement data and results. Paired with a cloud [...]
