The Hidden Hazard in Pharma Sifting And How to Stop It

Sifting is a crucial step in pharmaceutical manufacturing, refining powders to the required particle size before formulation. But along with consistent product quality comes a hidden risk, fine particles becoming airborne. Even small dust leaks can lead to hazardous working conditions, product loss, and regulatory compliance issues.

Why Dust Is a Serious Threat
During sifting, ultra-fine powders escape easily into the cleanroom atmosphere, spreading rapidly and settling on surfaces, machines, and operators.

1. Fine pharma powders become airborne within seconds
2. High risk of batch cross-contamination
3. Increased housekeeping requirements and downtime
4. Potential respiratory exposure for operators
5. Cleanroom hygiene and regulatory compliance affected

Smart Source-Capture Dust Control
Our advanced Pharmaceutical Dust Collectors are positioned directly at the sifter outlet to capture dust at the exact point of generation before it escapes into the workspace.

1. Prevents product-to-product contamination
2. Protects operator health from dust inhalation
3. Recovers valuable powder and reduces material waste
4. Minimizes cleaning frequency for faster batch changeovers
5. Maintains stable cleanroom air conditions for cGMP compliance

Built for Modern Pharma Manufacturing
Effective dust control isn’t just an environmental requirement, it’s a critical element of quality assurance and continuous production efficiency. Integrating our dust collectors into your sifting process helps maintain operational reliability while safeguarding product quality and operator wellbeing.
