Airflow Secrets in Manufacturing

Yesterday, I spoke with someone who had worked at a flavor manufacturer for many years. This manufacturer was located near my previous employer's site, and we often smelled fragrances wafting from their facility. This conversation reminded me of the importance of airflow in various manufacturing practices.

For instance, in manufacturing areas where products must meet contamination standards, the focus is on outward airflow to prevent contaminants from entering. Conversely, in areas dealing with product dispersion claims, the concern shifts to inward airflow to keep the product away from the environment. Both scenarios require appropriate environmental controls and validation to ensure these controls are effective. However, the validation strategies for areas focused on product contamination differ significantly from those concerned with product dispersal.
