helps to ensure that pharmaceutical products are consistently produced with the quality
standards appropriate for their intended use

defined , validated reviewed and documented and that the personnel, premises and
material are suitable for the production of pharmaceuticals and biological including
vaccines.

relation to any building includes a part of a building and any cartilage, forecourt, yard, or
place of storage used in connection with building or part of that building; and in relation
to ''vessel'', means ship, boat, air craft, and includes a carriage or receptacle of any kind,
whether open or closed. (TFDC Act 2003).
o The land and buildings where the manufacturing operations are located must
contribute towards the quality of the products. They do this by avoiding the risks of
contamination, permitting effective cleaning and maintenance, minimizing the build-
up of dirt and dust and preventing quality defects. .
o The geography of the chosen location can have a considerable impact upon the design
of facilities. Is the location subject to earthquake hazards? Does it experience
flooding regularly – during the monsoon season? What precautions need to be taken
regarding continuity of supply of services?
o The climate of the area is also important. If the company will be handling, for
example, gelatine capsules then humidity are of great concern. If the company has a
lot of goods requiring temperature or humidity controls in transport, and the goods
have to sit on the dockside for weeks waiting for a boat to arrive, there may be a
problem with the quality of the products. The company may need to rent
temperature-controlled storage. If it does, how will it check the quality of that
storage?
that arise. Does the process make a lot of noise, for example? If it does and the location
is close to neighbours, then the company may be forced into expensive soundproofing.
then the design precautions that it will have to take, and the level of maintenance that it
will have to undertake, will be very different than if it is in a rural setting. If the
neighbours change, the company will need to take appropriate measures to handle the
situation correctly.
surrounding area with product or by-products from its manufacturing processes.
for the construction of a pharmaceutical factory
o The layout and design of premises must aim to minimize the risk of errors and permit
effective cleaning and maintenance in order to avoid cross-contamination, build-up of
dust or dirt, and, in general, any adverse effect on the quality of products.
o Premises should be carefully maintained, and it should be ensured that repair and
maintenance operations do not present any hazard to the quality of products.
o Electrical supply, lighting, temperature, humidity and ventilation should be
appropriate and such that they do not adversely affect, directly or indirectly, either the
pharmaceutical products during their manufacture and storage, or the accurate
functioning of equipment.

o Premises should be designed to ensure the logical flow of materials and personnel
corresponding to the sequence of the operations and to the requisite cleanliness levels.
o Interior surfaces (walls, floors and ceilings) should be smooth and free from cracks
and open joints, should not shed particulate matter, and should permit easy and
effective cleaning and, if necessary, disinfection.
o Facilities for changing and storing clothes and for washing and toilet purposes should
be easily accessible and appropriate for the number of users. Toilets should not
communicate directly with production or storage areas.
o Interior surfaces (walls, floors and ceilings) should be smooth and free from cracks
and open joints, should not shed particulate matter, and should permit easy and
effective cleaning and, if necessary, disinfection.
o Facilities for changing and storing clothes and for washing and toilet purposes should
be easily accessible and appropriate for the number of users. Toilets should not
communicate directly with production or storage areas.
o Printed packaging materials are considered critical to the conformity of the
pharmaceutical product to its labeling and special attention should be paid to sampling
and the safe and secure storage of these materials.
o There should normally be a separate sampling area for starting materials. (If sampling
is performed in the storage area, it should be conducted in such a way as to prevent
contamination or cross contamination.)
o Highly active and radioactive materials, narcotics, other dangerous drugs, and
substances presenting special risks of abuse, fire or explosion should be stored in safe
and secure areas.
o The weighing of starting materials should be carried out in separate weighing areas
designed for that use, for example with provisions for dust control. Such areas may be
part of either storage or production areas.
o Pipe work, light fittings, ventilation points and other services should be designed and
sited to avoid the creation of recesses that are difficult to clean. As far as possible, for
maintenance purposes, they should be accessible from outside the manufacturing
areas.
o Production areas should be effectively ventilated, with air control facilities (including
filtration of air to a sufficient level to prevent contamination and cross-contamination,
o Production areas have control of temperature and, where necessary, humidity.
o Drains should be of adequate size and designed and equipped to prevent back-flow.
Open channels should be avoided where possible, but if they are necessary they
should be shallow to facilitate cleaning and disinfection.
o Quality control laboratories should be separated from production areas. Areas where
biological, microbiological or radioisotope test methods are employed should be
separated from each other.
o Quality control laboratories should be designed to suit the operations to be carried out
in them. Sufficient space should be given to avoid mix-ups and cross-contamination.
There should be adequate suitable storage space for samples, reference standards (if
necessary, with cooling), solvents, reagents and records.

o The design of the laboratories should take into account the suitability of construction
materials, prevention of fumes and ventilation. There should be separate air supply to
laboratories and production areas. Separate air-handling units and other provisions are
needed for biological, microbiological and radioisotope laboratories.
o A separate room may be needed for instruments to protect them against electrical
interference, vibration, contact with excessive moisture and other external factors, or
where it is necessary to isolate the instruments.
