Hygienic industries

Sterilisation extraction systems and process water cooling for injection moulds were among the highly specialist services we designed for Adnip’s Abu Dhabi facility manufacturing disposable syringes and IV setsAt Mott MacDonald we have a proven track record in delivering world-class, world-scale facilities for the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries to international regulatory standards.

Through the powerful combination of our leading process expertise and detailed design hubs in the Gulf and Asia sub-continent, we’re providing engineering, project management, procurement and validation services for a wide range of projects – from formulation facilities for generic drugs manufacturers to major biotech production centres.

We specialise in feasibility studies, concept design, process design, project management and expert advice in fields such as clean room technology and facilities management. In the field of process design we cover the complete range of activities from synthesis, extraction, fermentation and downstream processing to formulation, bulk solids handling, tabletting, filling, aseptic processing and packaging plants.

Front end studies covering new product introduction, process development, site selection, logistics and facilities layout are another area of special expertise. And here we offer the advantage of a leading ability in scaling up pilot plants devised by research and development centres into detailed designs for full production, providing all engineering services and taking care of licensing and permitting requirements.

When it comes to validation, we are able to offer a total service from validation master planning and facility plan preparation through all the qualification stages – design, installation, operational and performance – to process validation. Our qualification service includes both protocol writing and either field execution or management and supervision of customer personnel. For existing facilities we can conduct cGMP audits, advise on necessary upgrade work and undertake full validation – including all testing and documentation – to gain the necessary compliance recognition from the regulatory authorities.

We’ve designed and delivered research and development laboratories for products such as vaccines, blood and sera, biological products, medical devices, solid dosage forms, highly potent products and cytotoxic material. We also have experience in a range of modular laboratories for TSE research, sterility testing, microbiological, cytotoxic and bio-therapeutic purification facilities.
