The Alphapharm Packaging Plant is built over three levels using external precast walls and internal insulated panelling.
The first floor of the plant is built over the top of an existing building which required a post-tensioned floor slab.
As a manufacturer of bioequivalent brand prescription medicines, Alphapharm’s packaging plant needed to be built to PC2 Laboratory standards. The project also involved high end mechanical requirements including the provision of a pressurised environment to anti-microbial standards with a VESDA (Very Early Smoke Detector System) fire alarm system.
Due to construction being in a high security, fully operational work environment, we implemented additional management measures and procedures to ensure the safety and security of both McNab and Alphapharm employees.
