GMP Certified Weighing

Our customer, a large multinational pharmaceutical company, needed to ensure GMP compliance throughout their process. They chose GMP certified weighing platforms from METTLER TOLEDO to minimize the risk of contamination.

A new product from our customer is manufactured under non sterile clean room conditions. This meant that microbial and cross contamination control became of critical concern. One potential source of contamination identified was the dispensary and the weighing platforms used throughout the facility. So for the new facility they contacted METTLER TOLEDO to help in reducing this risk. To reduce the possibility of product cross contamination and microbial contamination the customer need a solution that could be washed down using their existing approved cleaning and disinfection agents. The solution offered by METTLER TOLEDO provided the customer with a range of products that not only met the performance requirements needed by their process but also met the cleaning requirements outlined by their GMP procedures. The solution involved using platforms and scales that had already been designed and then independently tested for GMP and PIC’s compliance.

As part of METTLER TOLEDO’s continued development process it was identified that in critical control areas weighing also took place. It was therefore identified that a range of scales and platforms that met the cleaning requirements of GMP and PIC’s would offer our customers a considerable advantage.

Independently tested to show GMP compliance for cleaning and microbial control.
Cleaning validation can be a long and expensive process. The introduction of new processes or equipment can bring unknown variable into a manufacturing area. METTLER TOLEDO however have taken the step of obtaining independent verification that a range of our products meet GMP and PIC’s cleaning guidelines. The GMP compliance was obtained from the University of Berlin with both scales and platforms tested to determine the ease of cleaning and the removal of microbial contamination in line with PIC’s and GMP guidelines. The solution provided by METTER TOLEDO involved combining a number of different products to provide a clean weighing solution each with GMP certification.
