The accreditation follows a £500,000 investment programme in the summer of 2010, which saw Chester Medical Solutions increase operations at its Deeside facility by 50%.
PS9000 is a globally-acclaimed certification programme published by the Pharmaceutical Quality Group (PQG) which provides a framework of best practice within the pharmaceutical packaging supply industry. Companies meeting the accreditation criteria must demonstrate a thorough understanding of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) together with the establishment and implementation of the appropriate quality and monitoring systems, including full reporting and traceability.
“As a dedicated Pharma and Healthcare packaging provider we have always operated to the standards expected by the industry,” said Chester Medical Solutions managing director David Patterson.
“The achievement of the PS9000 certification confirms this and should provide existing and prospective customers with the reassurance that they are dealing with one of the industry specialists.”
Chester Medical provides contract packing services and packaging components to many leading companies in the pharmaceutical, healthcare, medical device and nutritional sectors, offering an integrated service to meet customers’ entire packaging requirements. Its portfolio covers primary and secondary packing, including blister packing, pot filling, medical device assembly, peel pouch manufacture and packing, diagnostic kit assembly, hand packing and re-work.
