Methodology

The Pharmaceutical Industry is heavily regulated. Historically HVAC was over designed with subsequent high running costs and carbon intensive facilities, exceeding levels required for compliance.

As a result facilities are operating in excess of the levels required for compliance at an ever increasing cost due to energy price rises.

Pharmaceutical sector challenge

• Compete with low cost manufacturers
• Provide affordable high quality medicines to a global market place
• Maintain profitability
• Reduce carbon emissions
• Respond to energy and carbon reduction legislation

To remain competitive pharmaceutical companies can longer afford to continue to run over compliant facilities that add no additional benefits to product quality.

This document provides the EECO2 approach to identifying and reduce energy demand without compromising on product quality the key to which requires the complete involvement of the clients key stakholders to include but not limited to;

• Engineering
• Manufacturing
• Quality assurance
• Health and Safety
