We began with something seemingly small which has made a large impact. We installed a new bi-part sliding door system at the entrance of ChemRite’s water room. Although our customers do not require it, we chose a door system made of pharmaceutical grade materials. Each piece is clean-in-place (CIP) capable. The seamless fiberglass reinforced panel surface is non-porous, non-shedding, and non-absorptive. A continuous three-sided non-marking vinyl gasket, interlocking center seal and bottom sweep gasket ensures the tightest seal. The track and trolley system is 316 stainless steel, exceeding cGMP and FDA requirements.
Why did we select a door system of this caliber? For several important reasons. First, we believe the strategic group of customers ChemRite partners with deserve top-quality materials in their contract manufacturing facility. Second, water is the base of the majority of products we produce. ChemRite takes protecting the water that goes into the products we produce seriously. Finally, as the first of many upcoming facility improvement projects, ChemRite’s senior management wanted this renovation to be a showpiece for what lies ahead.
