Modular build
The new fill-finish facility was designed and built using the latest cleanroom technology, setting a benchmark for future cleanroom developments. PM Group maximised the use of off-site modular construction and skid pre-assembly in order to reduce construction workforce requirements on site, reduce traffic movements and minimise disruption to local residents. The quality control facility was a complete modular construction, manufactured off-site, transported to and installed on site.
