Biotech and Vaccine
Biotech and vaccine manufacturing involves complex processes and sensitive biological products. Cleaning, sterilization, and biodecontamination systems must support aseptic processing while addressing biosafety constraints and biological contamination risks. SteelcoBelimed solutions integrate into biotech and vaccine facilities to protect product integrity, support biosafety and ensure reliable, validated operations from development to commercial production.
Product range for Biotech and Vaccine applications
SteelcoBelimed provides solutions covering the full scope of biotech and vaccine manufacturing, from cleaning of product-contact components and bioreactors to sterilization, biodecontamination, and controlled material transfer. The range includes GMP washers and sterilizers, vessel cleaning systems for CIP and COP, hot-air sterilizers and depyrogenation ovens, biodecontamination air locks, and lab washers and sterilizers supporting QC and development activities.
Cleaning systems
Compact GMP washers (PH 810 and DS Optima) are selected for routine parts cleaning where space efficiency and rapid deployment are required. Parts washers (PH 800.2 Series and DS Series) support cleaning of process parts and product-contact components, with modular or flexible layouts adapted to biotech facilities. For larger equipment such as bioreactors, tanks, and associated hardware, high-capacity washers (PH 880 Series and LC Series) and vessel cleaning systems enable automated cleaning in place or out of place, reducing manual handling while improving repeatability and traceability.
Sterilization, biodecontamination and waste treatment
In biotech facilities, steam sterilizers are used both for sterilization of process equipment and for biodecontamination of biologically contaminated waste.
PST.2 and AV steam sterilizers can be equipped with dedicated options for waste treatment and fitted with bioseals to support biocontainment and segregation of areas. DHP biodecontamination air locks and combined AVD units enable controlled transfer between biosafety or classified areas. Hot-air solutions such as SD and EG are used to dry, sterilize, or depyrogenate components that are not compatible with steam processes.
Solutions
Biocontainment
From BSL-2 research labs to BSL-3 and BSL-4 high-containment facilities, validated decontamination processes, secure separation of areas, and controlled material transfer are key. We provide sterilization and decontamination solutions designed to integrate into containment workflows across biotech and vaccine facilities as well as biomedical research.
Contamination Control Strategy
EU GMP Annex 1 and Biosafety
The 2022 revision of EU GMP Annex 1 formalizes the Contamination Control Strategy (CCS) as a core requirement for sterile manufacturing, including biologics and vaccines. CCS places emphasis on validated and reproducible cleaning and sterilization processes, defined operating parameters, automation, and full traceability. In biotech facilities, these GMP requirements are implemented alongside biosafety measures and waste decontamination strategies defined by site-specific risk assessments and regulatory frameworks.
