11 Skid based mixing systems

Location: Montrose, Scotland

Scope: Mechanical design, build and installation of 11 skid based mixing systems for sterile aluminium salt production.

Briggs of Burton have supported a major pharmaceutical company in designing, building, and commissioning a complete mixing suite capable of producing sterile aluminium salts. Aluminium salts are recognised to enhance the human body’s response to immunisation. 11 New skids and CIP system were manufactured at Burton on Trent for the new pharmaceutical production facility located in Scotland.
