Ointment Preparation Plant

The Ointment Manufacturing Plant by Gansons is meticulously engineered to serve the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries, supporting the production of a wide range of products, including ointments, creams, lotions, and toothpaste. The facility is designed with a strong emphasis on minimizing manual handling and maintaining consistent vacuum levels during mixing and blending, ensuring superior product quality and process efficiency.

 

Operational Efficiency

The plant operates as a closed-circuit manufacturing facility, where the wax and water phases are heated and transferred to the manufacturing vessel via vacuum through a conical filter. During emulsion formation, the product is recirculated through the Ointment Transfer Pump, which also discharges the product into the Storage Vessel. The entire process can be managed by a single operator, ensuring effective manpower utilization and reducing operational costs.

Compliance and Quality Assurance

The Gansons Ointment Manufacturing Plant adheres to Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), featuring paint-free construction and high-quality materials. All contact parts are made of stainless steel (SS 304), with SS 316 available upon request. The plant includes features such as:

Materials Used: Wax and water.

Temperature Control: Both wax and water are heated to the required temperature before transfer.

Transfer to Manufacturing Vessel

Method: The heated wax and water are transferred to the Manufacturing Vessel or Planetary Mixer.

Vacuum Transfer: This transfer is achieved through a vacuum system using a conical filter, ensuring contamination-free movement of materials.

Storage Vessel Operations

Fixed Position: The Storage Vessel remains fixed in place after filling.

Connection to Filling Area: It is connected to the Ointment Transfer Pump for further processing.

Transfer to Filling Machine: The pump transfers the ointment from the Storage Vessel to the hopper of the Ointment Filling Machine.

Emulsion Formation

Recirculation: During the emulsion formation process, the product is recirculated through the Ointment Transfer Pump.

Discharge: The pump also discharges the emulsified product into the Storage Vessel.
