In-Process Batch Containers (IBC)
Our In-Process Batch Containers (IBCs), also known as Bins, are the cornerstone of modern, closed-loop material handling. They are specifically engineered for the hermetically sealed storage, transport, and blending of powders and granules, ensuring zero cross-contamination and 100% dust-free processing.
Core Engineering & Performance
Every GR IBC is fabricated to meet the most stringent cGMP requirements, focusing on material flow and hygienic integrity.
Optimized Flow Geometry: Designed with a 60o hopper angle (angle of repose) to ensure smooth, “first-in, first-out” material discharge without bridging or rathaping.
Hermetic Sealing: Equipped with high-quality, food-grade gaskets and a precision-fit lid to prevent moisture ingress and environmental contamination.
Precision Surface Finish: Internal surfaces are polished to a mirror finish (<0.3 Ra), and external surfaces are finished to a high-quality matt/satin finish for easy cleaning and validation.
Robust Construction: Fabricated from AISI SS 316L for all contact parts, ensuring durability and resistance to corrosive pharmaceutical ingredients.
Key Features
Ergonomic Handling: Built with integrated handles and sturdy, non-marking Polyurethane (P.U.) wheels for effortless manual mobility within the facility.
Discharge Precision: Features a high-quality butterfly valve (available in various sizes) for controlled and leak-proof material discharge.
Blending Compatibility: Designed to be picked up by our Conta Blenders or Lifting Devices, allowing the bin itself to act as the mixing vessel.
Stackable Design: Optimized for space-saving storage when not in use.
Operational Benefits
Enhanced Hygiene: Eliminates manual scooping and the use of open drums, drastically reducing the risk of airborne dust and operator exposure.
Simplified Cleaning: The “Bin-to-Bin” concept means only the IBC requires cleaning between batches, keeping the main blender or lifting equipment clean and dry.
Traceability: Each bin can be fitted with specialized tagging for easy batch tracking throughout the manufacturing lifecycle.
