We work with pharmaceutical and natural health product manufacturers, biotech and biomanufacturing companies, contract development and manufacturing organizations, universities, colleges and research institutes with containment laboratories, hospital and compounding pharmacies with sterile preparation rooms, diagnostic and public health laboratories, and medical device manufacturers. Food and beverage plants are covered on our Food and Beverage Processing page.
We plan and design new GMP suites, expansions and renovations with personnel and material flows, room classifications, finishes and segregation that support Health Canada GMP expectations. Building and Facility Design, Upgrades and Improvements
We design and review cleanroom HVAC, pressure cascades, air change rates, filtration and monitoring, and troubleshoot rooms that drift out of specification. Core Infrastructure Engineering and Design
We assess and design containment laboratories against the Canadian Biosafety Standard, covering directional airflow, room integrity, biosafety cabinet placement, decontamination and performance and verification testing, and we build the biosafety programs that operate them. Health, Safety and Environment
We prepare user requirement specifications, commissioning plans and qualification protocols for facility systems and utilities, and support cleanroom validation through to handover. Project and Construction Management and Inspection
We provide independent multidisciplinary review of mechanical, electrical and fire protection designs for GMP and laboratory projects, catching problems before they are built. Core Infrastructure Engineering and Design
We assess hazards from flammable solvents, potent compounds, cryogens and compressed gases, and design controls that protect people, product and property. Industrial Process Safety and Optimization
We assess aging labs and production buildings and plan the renewal of critical HVAC, exhaust and utility systems before they fail. Asset Management and Reliability Engineering
We are not tied to any cleanroom manufacturer, modular supplier or design-build contractor, so room classes, materials and systems are chosen for your process, not from a catalogue.
Our team includes a practising institutional Biosafety Officer, so containment requirements are understood from the operator's side, not just the designer's.
We can design or review, but never both on the same project, which keeps our quality reviews objective.
We work directly from Health Canada GMP guidance and the Canadian Biosafety Standard, so designs are built around what inspectors will look for.
Condition assessment, design, review, commissioning support and construction oversight sit under one roof.
Licensure in Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Nova Scotia, Quebec and Yukon lets us support research networks and manufacturers with sites in several provinces.
A cleanroom consultant helps owners plan, design, upgrade and troubleshoot controlled environments. That includes defining the cleanliness class a process needs, designing the layout and HVAC to achieve it, reviewing designs, and supporting commissioning, qualification and ongoing performance.
A GMP facility is a building or suite designed, built and operated to meet good manufacturing practice requirements for the products made in it. In Canada, drug manufacturers follow Health Canada's GMP requirements, which cover premises, equipment, sanitation, personnel and quality systems.
Yes. We assess existing laboratories against the physical containment and performance and verification testing requirements of the Canadian Biosafety Standard, design upgrades to close gaps, and help develop the biosafety programs and documentation that support licensing and inspections.
Yes. We prepare user requirement specifications, commissioning plans and qualification protocols for facility systems and utilities, and support execution through to handover. Final product and process validation remains the responsibility of your quality team.
