Certifications
All our CO2 extraction systems are certified
SYSTEM CERTIFICATIONS
CO2 extraction system certification is essential in order to provide quality guarantees and compliance with regulations required in your country. Check that each CO2 extraction system has been checked individually and that each component, from the extraction vessel to the separators, to each individual pipe and fitting, to each valve and instrument or pressure gauge, is also individually certified.
- For Europe and other counties accepting EU regulation, we certify PED and CE. Pressure equipment are PED certified.
- For North America and other counties accepting ASME regulation, we certify UL. Pressure equipment are ASME certified.
- The PED certifying body is Apave.
- High pressure design code is ASME VIII, div 1.
- Piping is accompanied by a certificate of material and stress tests certification.
- For Europe and other counties accepting EU regulation, high pressure vessels are individually certified CE and PED tested.
- For North America and other counties accepting ASME regulation, high pressure vessels are individually certified ASME.
- For Canada only, all equipment and instrumentation have their own CRN.
- Safety valves are PED certified for Europe and ASME for North America
- All system are fully tested and certified before shipment.
- All fittings are accompanied by a certificate of conformity and material.
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP)
Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is a production and testing practice that helps to ensure a quality product. GMP guidelines give us direction for the manufacturing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs) under an appropriate system for managing quality.
It is also intended to help ensure that APIs meet the quality and purity characteristics that they purport, or are represented, to possess. The term “manufacturing” is defined to include all operations of receipt of materials, production, packaging, repackaging, labeling, re-labeling, quality control, release, storage, and distribution of APIs and related controls.
Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP)
The Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) system was developed to ensure the safety of food for US astronauts nearly 30 years ago. It identifies any hazards that must be prevented, eliminated, or reduced. HACCP system is internationally accepted as the system of choice for food safety management. It is a preventative approach to food safety based on the following principles:
- Identify the critical control points (CCPs) at the steps at which control is essential
- Establish critical limits at CCPs
- Establish procedures to monitor the CCPs
- Establish corrective actions to be taken if a CCP is not under control
- Establish procedures to verify whether the above procedures are working effectively
- Establish documents and records to demonstrate the effective application of the above measure
GAMP5 Guidelines
The GAMP5 Guidelines relate to the regulated company and its good manufacturing practices. The responsibility for full compliance with relevant standards ultimately stops there. However, in GAMP5 greater importance has been placed on supplier leverage — that is, the supplier of a product or service should be aware of the guidelines and adhere to them. This way regulated companies can use the supplier’s documentation, testing, verification, and quality plan to prove compliance with regulatory authorities.
