Bischof + Klein adds more production cells to Class 5 cleanroom

Published: 9-May-2013

To meet demand for high-quality medical packaging


Bischof + Klein, a German packaging and film specialist, is responding to increased demand for high-quality packaging by adding more production cells to its ISO Class 5 cleanroom.

The company has extended its cleanroom production facility in Lengerich to 2,700m2. The production cells, including a new module with a high-performance automatic punching machine, are connected to a new intermediate warehouse.

The punching machine produces single- and two-ply Tyvek cover sheets for the disposable syringe industry. An adjacent packaging line enables the initial protective packaging to be applied fully automatically.

The closed-loop cleanroom chain also includes lines for extruding polyethylene films and for converting sacks and bags, as well as a laboratory. The personnel air lock has also been extended.

The number of specially trained staff in this area has increased by around 35% since the beginning of 2012.

Bischof + Klein anticipates a further increase in demand and space is available for gradual expansion in the future.
