Production building: typical section A–A

Production, warehouse and technical levels stacked in one 15 m structure, typical for both manufacturing buildings.

LevelContents
Mezzanine 2AHUs and electrical panel room serving the upper level
First floorWarehouse for raw materials, packing materials and finished goods
Mezzanine 1AHUs, chilled water, process piping, fire fighting and cable trays, directly above the cleanrooms
Ground floorGMP production: dispensing, granulation, milling, compression, coating and packing
  • Maintenance outside cleanrooms

    Technical mezzanines keep service access out of the GMP zone.
