Pharma Flow Racks
GMP-compliant pharmaceutical flow racks with electropolished 316L stainless steel, cGMP design documentation, and cleanroom-compatible accessories for drug substance, drug product, and medical consumable manufacturing environments.
GMP-compliant pharmaceutical flow racks with electropolished 316L stainless steel, cGMP design documentation, and cleanroom-compatible accessories for drug substance, drug product, and medical consumable manufacturing environments.
Rack design follows GMP engineering principles: no dead legs, no horizontal particle-trapping ledges, no recessed fastener holes, and all surfaces accessible for cleaning and inspection without disassembly.
All contact and near-contact surfaces are 316L stainless steel with a minimum Ra 0.5 micron electropolished finish. Electropolishing removes surface asperities and creates a passive corrosion-resistant surface that is easier to clean and less prone to bacterial adhesion than mechanically polished finishes.
Full GMP documentation package including material certifications (mill certs), surface finish certificates (Ra measurement records), design drawings, IQ/OQ support templates, and cleaning validation support data for each rack system.
All accessories including label holders, lane guides, and kanban card holders are cleanroom-grade materials with no particle generation, no PVC, and no materials prohibited in GMP cleanroom environments.
Rack design eliminates all cleaning access dead zones. Modular Solutions provides worst-case surface area calculations, surface finish documentation, and coupon test support for cleaning validation protocols.
Rear-load, front-pick FIFO lanes maintain lot sequence through the production supermarket. Combined with lane-level RFID or barcode scanning, the rack supports container-level lot traceability from warehouse to line-side consumption.

Line-side component and packaging material staging racks in cGMP drug product manufacturing suites subject to 21 CFR Part 211 or EU GMP.
Intermediate and API container staging racks in API manufacturing environments where GMP cleaning validation and lot traceability are regulatory requirements.
Primary and secondary packaging component supply racks in pharmaceutical packaging lines with daily cleaning validation and GMP operator qualification requirements.
Component flow racks for medical consumable assembly lines operating under ISO 13485 and cGMP dual compliance requirements.
Modular Solutions supplies a full GMP documentation package with every pharma rack system. This includes 316L stainless steel mill certificates, surface finish measurement records (Ra), electropolishing process specification, design drawings with GMP annotations, cleaning validation support data (surface area calculations, worst-case zone identification), and IQ/OQ protocol templates formatted for inclusion in the facility qualification system.
EU GMP Annex 1 and 21 CFR Part 211 engineering guidance recommends a minimum Ra 0.8 micron for product-contact surfaces in non-sterile pharmaceutical manufacturing. For sterile environments, Ra 0.5 micron or better is typically required. Modular Solutions electropolishes all pharma rack surfaces to Ra 0.5 micron and provides Ra measurement certificates for the IQ/OQ record.
Yes. Pharma flow racks built from electropolished 316L stainless steel with cleanroom-grade accessories are compatible with ISO Class 7 cleanroom environments. The material and finish selection meets both GMP and ISO 14644 cleanroom requirements simultaneously, supporting the combination of pharmaceutical GMP and cleanroom ISO class requirements common in aseptic manufacturing environments.
The rack is included in the facility cleaning validation as a product-contact or near-product-contact surface. Modular Solutions provides surface area calculations, worst-case surface location identification, and coupon mounting options for worst-case swab sampling during the cleaning validation study. The electropolished surface finish certificate establishes the baseline surface condition for the validation.
Yes. Electropolished 316L stainless steel pharma racks are compatible with automated CIP cleaning systems using alkaline and acid cleaning agents. The open-frame design with no dead legs ensures complete CIP solution contact on all surfaces. Modular Solutions confirms CIP compatibility with the customer cleaning agent chemistry before specifying any rack accessories.
