Pharmaceutical Handling

Conveying requirements for the pharmaceutical industry

The pharmaceutical industry faces a unique set of challenges when it comes to material handling, with a need for the most stringent hygiene standards, absolute product containment, and CIP and SIP (Clean in Place/Sterilise in Place). Batch production and relatively low flow rates are the norm for this industry, and stainless steel equipment is specified to avoid contamination issues.

Guttridge’s stainless steel equipment delivers contamination-free operation across a very broad range of pharmaceutical applications. Machines are constructed in either 316 or 304 stainless steel and are TIG welded to a high standard of finish. Optional specifications include crack and crevice-free construction, electro-polished or mirror finish polished surfaces, and rounded corners.
