Within the pharmaceutical industry, Veenbrink RVS supplies process equipment for the preparation of aqueous, powdery and highly viscous media. The sterile preparation process must comply with strict criteria that require extensive knowledge of critical design guidelines such as GMP and GAMP. In addition to high finishing standards, validation documents and material traceability also play a major role.
Because the activities of pharmaceutical companies are related to human and animal health, medical equipment is subject to strict demands. Pharmaceutical companies are medical specialists, not mechanical engineers. Veenbrink RVS’s strength is its ability to contribute ideas during the design and production of medical equipment. It takes the interests of the entire pharmaceutical value chain into account in this respect, ranging from operators to technical services and from engineering to the validation team.
While many production processes involve chemical reactions between substances, the bio-pharmaceutical industry involves the production of a product derived from the division of living cells. In this process cells are brought into a living environment with specific conditions in terms of pH, temperature and the presence or absence of oxygen. The living cells are kept alive and supplied with the right nutrients, which enable the cells to convert them into the desired product. The nutrients are administered to the tank and are generally stirred carefully. The emphasis here is on ‘carefully’, because the cells are often highly sensitive. This process as a whole is referred to as bio-fermentation. The Veenbrink RVS bioreactors are generally equipped with spargers that ensure nutrients are uniformly dosed to the reactor so that they are distributed across the tank after which they are stirred. Naturally, because of the hygiene requirements, the Veenbrink RVS bioreactors are finished to the highest possible standards.
