Talk to us

Please put these facts in your first message. They help us send a faster and more useful reply. Sending them does not commit you to anything. If you know only some of the answers, send what you have.

• The process. What you will make, in what dosage form, and at about what scale. For example: tablets, capsules, liquids, sterile injectables, API or biologics. Your answer changes almost every later step of the project.
• The containment requirement. If the material is potent, tell us its OEB band. OEB (occupational exposure band) is a grade that shows how little of a material a worker can safely be exposed to. This one figure decides if you need a booth, an isolator or a contained suite. Their costs differ by an order of magnitude, which means about ten times.
• The market. Tell us which regulator will inspect the facility. Also tell us the electrical supply at the site: 50 Hz or 60 Hz. The format of the documents and the specification of the equipment both depend on this.
• The state of the site. Greenfield (an empty plot), brownfield (a site used before), an extension, or a retrofit into a running plant. A retrofit means new work inside a plant that is still in production. It is a different engineering problem from an empty plot, and usually a harder one.
• Your timeline. Include any regulatory or commercial date the project has to meet.

For a single piece of equipment rather than a facility, tell us four things: the machine, the material, the throughput and the destination market. Throughput is how much material the machine must process in a set time.

• A complete facility, from design to qualification: turnkey pharmaceutical projects.
• Cleanroom and air, including cleanroom systems, HVAC, isolators, air showers, pass boxes and laminar airflow: solutions for air.
• Water and pure steam, including purified water, WFI (water for injection), pure steam and CIP/SIP (cleaning and sterilising equipment where it stands): solutions for water.
• Process equipment for granulation, coating, compression, blending and filling: process equipment.
• Containment for potent compounds, where the main need is to protect operators from exposure to the material: pharmaceutical isolators.
• Qualification and validation: equipment qualification.
• Careers: pharmaceutical engineering jobs.
• Investors, compliance and company secretarial: see the contacts below.

You may want to see our finished work before you write. The projects portfolio lists facilities Fabtech has built. The turnkey project case studies describe several of them in detail.
