Restricted access barriers systems for aseptic processing
Enhance product safety by separating operators from the critical aseptic core. Ideal for maintaining sterile conditions, this system provides effective product protection through a combination of a physical barrier and dynamic airflow, ensuring compliance with strict regulatory standards.

Separates Operators from Critical Aseptic Environments
Telstar’s Restricted Access Barrier Systems (RABs) are designed to optimize aseptic processing by creating a high level of separation between operators and critical environments in pharmaceutical production. These systems are essential for manufacturing sterile injectable drugs, vaccines, and various biologics, offering a unique combination of physical barriers and dynamic airflow. RABs can be tailored to integrate with third-party equipment, ensuring compliance with GMP and current regulatory standards. They feature unidirectional laminar flow (active RABs) to maintain an ISO 5 positive pressure environment, crucial for protecting sensitive processes. With aseptic transfer capabilities for powders and liquids, and advanced environmental monitoring systems, these units are ideal for cleanrooms requiring enhanced sterility without the need for fully leak-tight isolators. Telstar supports customization and offers technical assistance, ensuring the RABs meet specific operational needs while facilitating ease of cleaning and maintenance through integrated systems.
