Pharmaceutical facilities require stringent hygiene levels in order to operate safely. Therefore, it is essential that robust hygienic wall claddings and/or hygienic wall coatings are installed correctly by specialists.
To ensure that installations meet the required standards, it is vital that a full assessment of the facility is carried out. This will highlight important information regarding the configuration of rooms and potential issues concerning joins, etc. The survey, therefore, will influence the type of hygienic cladding and/or coating products employed together with the relevant installation processes.
In line with our approach to all projects, we undertook a thorough site inspection to fully understand the requirements for the works. It was during these initial phases that it became clear that the project would involve a multi-product and multi-process approach.
Hygienic wall cladding
For the walls, it was decided that the method should be a combination of full height and half height hygienic cladding. These would then be finished to seamlessly join with the existing coving. In addition, our installers applied cladding to doors to the level of the vision panels.
The hygienic wall cladding chosen was Trovex Diamond White. Trovex has an extraordinary variety of benefits which would meet the demands of this project. Demands included a robust, long-term hygienic and impact resistance surface. Importantly for this environment, it tolerates the affects of spills and stains and can withstand exposure to a wide range of chemical agents.
Hygienic wall coating
For the areas of the facility where specialist hygienic coatings were more appropriate, Sikagard 405W – White was selected and applied by airless spray.
Naturally, the team carried out any minor repairs that were necessary. Our installers made good all surfaces which ensured we achieved the optimum hygienic qualities.
