Compromising the quality of sterile injectables can have severe consequences

Compromising the quality of sterile injectables can have severe consequences, necessitating a robust contamination control strategy. Environmental Monitoring Systems (EMS) play a pivotal role in maintaining the integrity of pharmaceutical products.

Pass-through hatches

LAF Technologies also supplied and validated pass-through hatches, which are essential for maintaining the integrity of the controlled environment. 

These hatches facilitate the seamless transfer of materials between different areas of the facility, minimising the risk of contamination or exposure. 

By reducing the need for personnel movement in and out of sensitive areas, pass-through hatches contribute significantly to the control of ingress and egress of contamination within the pharmacy facility.

Overall, the facility demonstrated a commitment to protecting the well-being of its personnel and patients by ensuring the integrity of sterile injectable medications.
