The facility is fundamentally divided in to 2 main sections:

  1. Herbal Section
  2. Homoeopathic Section

Each section has separate subsections for each dosage form designed as per the required work flow and is well-mannered according to cGMP recommendations. The design features of the facility can be listed as under:

  • The production planning and equipment design allows for flexible production runs to support manufacture of a diverse product line
  • Manufacturing tanks, equipment, vessels, filling lines, packing belts are made up of pharma grade materials and protocols.
  • The air handling system, temperature controls, relative humidity and other contamination control measures have been thoroughly adopted.
  • Separate change rooms, material buffers and hygiene control systems have been systematically implemented.
  • 20000 liter capacity double column De-ionized water plant installed to maintain adequate supply of purified water all over the facility. De-ionized water is further Carbon filtered & processed with UV lamps. The water is checked for pH, TDS, Conductivity, Microbial Contamination
  • Each step of production is controlled by well documented SOPs and Batch manufacturing protocols/records.
  • A system of preventive maintenance of machinery and equipment has been designed to ensure uninterrupted production flow within the parameters of cGMP
  • The technical staff is trained to operate adhering to strict hygiene requirements
  • Automated access controls, motion sensors, CCTV cameras, and electronic measuring devices have been installed to ensure controlled operations
