Comprehensive Commissioning, Qualification, and Validation for Controlled Storage Environments

In the life sciences industry, maintaining the quality and integrity of products and materials is paramount. cGMP guidelines are the cornerstone of ensuring that these standards are met throughout the entire storage process. Whether it’s a small batch of plasmids stored in a chamber or drums of an API (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient) in a freezer, the reliability of your storage units is crucial. Alcami ensures that your equipment and instruments are qualified for their purpose, operating consistently within your required parameters to deliver reliable results.


Life sciences companies follow cGMP guidelines to make sure the quality and integrity of their product or material is maintained at their intended condition throughout storage. Whether it’s a small batch of plasmids in a chamber or drums of an API (active pharmaceutical ingredient) in a freezer, you want to know the storage unit is qualified for its purpose. You also want to ensure it will operate within your required parameters to consistently and reliably deliver the desired outcome.

Alcami’s Validation department provides the documented evidence you need — to know the equipment and instrumentation are installed correctly, operating accurately, and performing reliably.
