When conventional cleaning reaches its limits

Vessels in pharmaceutical production range from small mobile tanks to large IBCs, reactors and fermenters. Conventional approaches are often limited to manual cleaning or standalone CIP skids. These methods can be resource intensive, difficult to standardize and challenging to validate.

Manual operations expose operators to detergents and hot fluids, while bulky vessels require complex handling. Separate systems for parts and mobile vessels increase footprint and capital cost. At the same time, GMP expectations require repeatable and documented cleaning performance.

Automated solutions for each use case

SteelcoBelimed provides automated vessel cleaning solutions integrated into GMP-controlled washer platforms. Depending on the vessel type and facility layout, three approaches can be implemented.

Operational efficiency and easier validation

Automating vessel cleaning improves repeatability, process control and documentation compared with manual methods. Cleaning performance becomes measurable and easier to validate, while operator exposure and manual handling are reduced.

The result is a flexible, integrated approach that delivers GMP-compliant vessel cleaning while improving safety, efficiency and scalability.
