ASM Industries was approached to provide stainless steel countertops and supports for the NTT USP 800 Pharmacy project, a facility that required high-performance components to meet the stringent hygiene and safety requirements for pharmaceutical operations. The project’s success relied on implementing durable and easy-to-maintain materials that would also comply with strict regulatory standards.

Challenge

Pharmaceutical environments like the NTT USP 800 Pharmacy require strict adherence to hygiene protocols to ensure both product safety and worker health. The materials used must resist contamination, withstand frequent cleaning, and maintain their integrity over time. Additionally, the facility needed a workspace that was both functional and stable to support daily operations.

ASM Industries was tasked with supplying countertops and support structures that would:

• Be easy to sanitize and maintain.
• Provide long-lasting durability in a high-use environment.
• Support the stability and safety of the workspace.
• Meet USP 800 regulatory standards for pharmaceutical facilities.

Solution

ASM Industries provided stainless steel countertops and custom-fabricated supports for the pharmacy. Stainless steel was selected for its:

• Hygienic properties: Stainless steel’s non-porous surface resists bacteria and other contaminants, making it ideal for pharmaceutical applications.
• Durability: The material withstands heavy use and harsh cleaning agents without degrading, ensuring long-term performance.
• Ease of maintenance: Smooth surfaces ensure easy cleaning and reduce maintenance time.
• Structural integrity: Custom supports were designed to maintain the stability of the workspace, ensuring both safety and functionality.
