& CLEAN……BUT HOW MUCH ??
The pharmaceutical industry demands virtually operation theatre standards of cleanliness and a key issue is cleaning and sanitization of ceilings ,walls and ventilation systems
Damaging contaminants can infiltrate by air ,foot or any carrier between the external environment and the critical area
The floor and walls provide a large exposed surface which, if not properly fortified could aid in bacterial colonization
Studies by 3M show that over 80% of the contamination entres the clean room through entrance and exits mostly at or near floor level

MICROBIAL CONTAMINATION OF DRUGS
SALMONELLA
Irrespective of being harmful microbes can induce change in drug characteristics such as :
Breaking of emulsions Thinning of creams Fermentation of syrups Turbidity Odour and colour change
Often ,an entire batch would
need to be discarded in case
of severe colonization

& ARE STANDARD PROCEDURES EFFECTIVE ?
Personal hygiene is paramount but even sterilized gloves ,over-suits ,caps and over-shoes are not quite enough to completely block entry of pathogens in the sterilized area
Foot –traffic ,movement of equipment, grooves in trolley-wheels, inspection & maintenance procedures form a conduit for transferring pathogens from the external environment to an otherwise strictly regulated “clean room”
Such infections could invade the storage areas, contaminating vital drug ingredients with extremely adverse consequences for the patient as well as the manufacturer

& Effects of Contamination Unguarded proliferation of contamination can
quickly lead to :
product damage
yield reduction
product recalls
legal implications ,revoking of licence and huge financial losses

About STP Epoxy Floors
• Epoxy floorings are essentially 2-3 component resin formulations modified with appropriate fillers and additives which can be applied as a film on the parent floor
• Their unique features :
Joint less Monolithic Chemically resistant Hygienic Abrasion resistant Inhibits microbial colonization

PROTECTIO N FOR WALLS AND CEILINGS
Bio-chemical ingredients used in the pharma industry could corrode the surface of walls and ceilings thereby providing a breeding ground for harmful microbes
Spillage from blenders bio-reactors ,foot traffic, sudden change in air-flow patterns within the clean room contribute to accumulation of dust /chemicals on the walls

SHALIPOXY FC WALL COATINGS….
High build epoxy coating ideally suited for pharmaceutical applications
Does not allow dust or bacteria to accumulate due to a hard cured surface with an inherrent smooth finish
Has resistance towards common weak acids and alkalis and forms a monolithic layer which acts as a barrier for the parent substrate
Is easy to apply and has a fast drying characteristic with a film coating of 200 microns over 2 coats
Due to smooth and glossy characteristics , it is easy to clean and maintain without loss of aesthetics

REQUIREMENTS FOR AN EPOXY FLOOR
•For new floors ,the concrete should be minimum 28 days old and properly finished
•The moisture content should be less than 5%
•For proper adherence ,the floor surface is thoroughly cleaned by grinding ,scarifying and acid-etching
•Tiles have joints which makes them an unsuitable substrate for laying epoxy floors
•Marble surfaces would need to be thoroughly ground before application of the coating

APPLICATION PROCEDURE…
SURFCE PREPARATION
• Removal of dust ,oil and other contaminants.
• Bone dry textured concrete surface desirable
PRIMER COATING
• Brush application of 2 component epoxy primer
• Allow 4-6 hrs drying time(touch dry)
EPOXY COATING
• Blended coatings laid immediately after mixing using steel trowel with notches
• Spike rollers used to ensure smooth finish free from entrapped air .Curing : 3-7 days

CARE FOR YOUR EPOXY FLOOR …..
In case of spillage of food and raw ingredients cleaning should be done immediately with detergent and luke- warm water
Regular maintenance of trolleys to prevent locking of wheels
Use of polyurethane /pneumatic wheels on trolleys
Handle sharp equipment carefully : denting and even deep scratches can occur due to impact of falling objects
Use mats to drag heavy objects on the floor
Plug leaks in water pipes/air ducts beneath the surface to prevent blistering
