Comply with the stringent health and safety requirements in pharmaceutical production while meeting mandatory quality requirements.
Pharmaceutical manufacturers are increasingly looking for ways to reduce the costs associated with product manufacturing while improving safety and quality. Cleanroom air filtration and process dust collection solutions play a key role in ensuring the production of high-quality pharmaceutical products while helping you increase your throughput.
Oral solid dosage (OSD) processes face two main challenges. For one, the generic drug market is putting pressure on manufacturing operations to become more agile and efficient. Filtration systems at these facilities have the potential to help lower operating costs by cutting energy consumption and equipment downtime and by providing filters with an extended lifetime.
Secondly, drugs containing high-potency compounds and active pharmaceutical ingredients (HPAPIs), like in oncology treatments, are on the rise. Their production demands enhanced operational quality and occupational safety to eliminate cross-contamination risks and to protect people and the environment. Operational flexibility also presents a challenge, requiring high quality while allowing for rapid production changeovers.
Camfil provides state-of-the-art HEPA filters and specialized dust collectors for OSD processes and facilities. OSD facilities consist of different areas that each require their own air filter or dust collector to meet various needs:

Camfil’s Pharmaseal® and Pharmatain filter housings, wall mount units and stand-alone systems are specially designed for life sciences. The products are robust, fully-welded, leak-proof solutions that are easy to install, handle and maintain.
Control your sensitive production environment with dedicated pharmaceutical air filtration and dust collection solutions. You will gain these benefits:
Guarantee product safety and ensure the longest and safest shelf life by controlling production and air contact issues. Using filters that comply with cleaning agents, temperatures and standards protect both products and people.
Protect people, processes, products and equipment while keeping maintenance and energy costs low by keeping air handling units unclogged.
Controlled environments must protect critical processes and personnel. A high level of air cleanliness is essential to protect products and to contain hazardous compounds. High-quality filtration systems help ensure regulatory compliance and maintain efficient operations.
It's imperative to protect people and the environment from highly dangerous biological, chemical or radioactive risks during research or production operation, especially within defense, the military and university labs.
Energy Cost Index (ECI) Star Rating System set the standards for air filter performance. The more stars means better air filter performance and higher energy savings. Get recognized for saving energy, shrinking waste, reducing carbon footprint and improving indoor air quality.

Processes in manufacturing facilities often generate dust and fumes which for example can pose health risks for your operators or compromise the quality and safety of your products. Determining the right capture and filtration solution helps to protect against the main risks of uncontrolled emissions and thus to create safe work environments.
Food and beverage Life science and healthcare Air quality Manufacturing and machinery
Awareness and regulations in the life sciences and pharmaceutical processes are essential as critical molecules in the mistaken place can cause failure of the production process which can be extremely harsh to the outcome. In the pharmaceutical and life sciences industries, cleanrooms and laboratories are often used for various purposes. These cleanrooms are subject to a high level of cleanliness of numerous particles and molecules
Clean air plays an imperative role in the life science, healthcare and pharmaceutical process chain. Many studies have inferred that in moderate levels of air pollution the damage to human health is irreversible. In the life science industry where biological life or living organisms are at play, it is vital to maintain utmost hygiene along with superior indoor air quality. Camfil’s high-efficiency air filtration solutions are used by many global life science industry specialists in cleanrooms, production areas, and laboratories, including many global biosafety labs around the world.
Case Study: Camtain Contains Explosive Pharma Dust. A multinational pharmaceutical company needed a dust extraction system for their new tableting suite in Spain. The suite comprised of six rooms, each with its own tablet machine that created explosive dusts.
Case Study: Cannabis Cultivation. This key player in the industry operates one of the largest facilities in Canada, with over 150,000 square feet of space licensed for medical marijuana production. The process of growing cannabis produces a strong smell.
Case Study: Odour Solution For Pharmaceutical Company. There was a distinct odour in the manufacturer's lab and cold storage area, and employee complaints of nuisance odour eventually circulated to management where the concern was escalated.
