Norwood provide partitioning solutions for cleanrooms, laboratories, cold rooms and temperature controlled environments.
Norwood designs, manufactures and installs a host of bespoke and cGMP compliant cleanroom systems for pharmaceuticals, life sciences and biotech sectors. Norwood partitioning solutions, walls, glazing, ceilings and doors meet ISO 14644-1 classifications.
We have a vast experience in delivering cleanrooms, laboratories and other scientific environments – from research and development, packing and storage to the most complex and highly specified manufacturing plants.
Our cleanroom system is fully flush, antibacterial with integrated coving throughout to aid cleanability. Our clients especially value the quality of our products, speed of delivery and the flexibility of the Norwood cleanroom system. The system has been designed with an adaptive reuse in mind, providing the opportunity to easily remodel your spaces in the future, without disrupting operations, ultimately providing a greater return on investment.
Norwood’s growing pharma and life sciences client portfolio includes blue chip, SMEs, CDMOs and start-up companies, such as AstraZeneca, GSK, Bio-Products Laboratory Limited, Fujifilm Diosynth Biotechnologies, Cambridge Pharma, Perrigo, SEDA and Vectura. Norwood has also been awarded a contract to provide our cleanroom system for the new Vaccine Manufacturing Innovation Centre (VMIC) in Harwell, Oxford.
We encourage our clients to work with us from the earliest design stages. By managing the process together, environmental factors, security, fire protection, and utilities can be incorporated into every partition solution. Thereby optimising space, functionality, budget, whilst accelerating installation.
We provide flexible cleanrooms and laboratories, accommodating a variety of research needs, a constant advancements in technology, a speed to market and carbon reduction goals.
Our products undergo extensive laboratory tests to achieve the best air permeability, acoustic and fire ratings, VHP resistance and the partition finish efficiency against various microorganisms. Our cleanroom system is cGMP, FDA and FM Global compliant.
Adopting Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) methodologies, all products are prefabricated in our factory in Stockport, shortening installation timescales, reducing health and safety risks on site and improving quality.
The project comprised the manufacture, supply and installation of a new 8000m2 footprint of a highly specified Packing Facility. The brief was to provide nine GMP Grade D packing cells, each of which required strict temperature, humidity and pressure control to enable primary packing of pharmaceuticals in a clean environment with no risk of contamination. Each of these Primary Packing cells connects to a common, secondary packing area. To meet the project specification and environmental requirements, Norwood proposed our 100mm Mediline Partition. Following a rigorous selection process, our solution was a preferred option over four alternative systems. Working closely with the client’s team and the main contractor, we designed and developed bespoke solutions such as Flush Coving, Fire Rated Vision Panels, Bulkheads and Half Height partitioning. Cleanability has been ensured through the hygienic finish of the partition panels and, in particular, by incorporating recessed radiused coving at ceiling to wall joints providing a smooth clean finish throughout the room.
