Ecolab Launches Cleanroom Portfolio in North America

Life Sciences solutions ideal for pharmaceutical manufacturing

ST. PAUL, Minn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Ecolab Inc. has launched its Life Sciences cleanroom program in North
America. Developed specifically for pharmaceutical manufacturing,
Ecolab’s cleanroom program provides comprehensive cleaning and
disinfection for both sterile and non-sterile applications, and includes
the company’s Klercide™ chemistry line and SteriShield Delivery System.
Ecolab’s offering is designed to ensure the highest level of patient and
worker safety, while improving compliance and operational efficiency.

“Ecolab Life Sciences is a market leader in Europe for cleanroom
cleaning and disinfection solutions, and partners with many of the
world’s top pharmaceutical manufacturing companies,” said Beth
Simermeyer, Ecolab executive vice president for Life Sciences. “We are
excited to expand our proven cleanroom solutions to help North American
pharmaceutical manufacturers improve cleanroom operations.”

The Klercide product line of cleanroom alcohol, biocide and detergent
chemistries complements Ecolab’s existing clean-in-place (CIP) and
clean-out-of-place (COP) program, which is branded under the COSA™ name
and already available in both North America and Europe.

Ecolab’s patented, ready-to-use SteriShield Delivery System, a closed
and validated trigger spray system that ensures content integrity
throughout use, is available across the Klercide product range. Other
product formats for the cleanroom environment include concentrates and
mop and pouch wipes.

Beyond chemistry, Ecolab Life Sciences also addresses pharmaceutical
manufacturers’ specific needs with its Total Plant Solutions offering,
which, in addition to cleaning and disinfection programs, also includes
cleaning and disinfection validation support, technical lab support,
regulatory and scientific insights, site surveys and customer training.

Ecolab is investing in a new manufacturing facility in Greensboro, N.C.,
to support the launch of the North American cleanroom portfolio.

“Our industry expertise, solutions and integrated business model helps
ensure that we provide consistency across customers’ pharmaceutical
operations in North America and other sites around the globe to drive
improvements in safety, compliance, and operational efficiency,” added
Simermeyer.
