European chemical manufacturer needs a facility for a new consumer goods business unit in the US. The facility will produce over five million units per month on a greenfield site.

The facility includes a 15,000 sf two-story office with controlled access into the cGMP facility via gowning areas. Truck and automobile traffic are segregated via separate drives. 

The 52,500 sf manufacturing area includes packaging, filling, blending, utilities and support areas.

  • Filling and blending spaces are cGMP, Hazard Class 1, Division 1. 
  • Blending systems consist of several 5,000 gallon tanks with agitation, minor ingredient addition, and IBC tote unloading systems. 
  • Blast relief wall/roof panels are incorporated into the facility design. 
  • Flexible packaging system accommodates several product formats. 
  • The facility receives raw goods via rail and truck. 
  • The 60,000 sf warehouse separately houses raw materials and finished goods. 

The project requires a very aggressive schedule to achieve internal commitments: producing sellable product within 15 months.
