LOUNGES 2026 provides valuable input for the Ripac New Build

Heiko Ruediger and Martin Baudis (Ripac-Labor), together with Henrik Wecker (PBM), visited LOUNGES 2026 in Karlsruhe. The visit was used primarily as a working platform to exchange ideas and experiences with existing project partners and to identify suitable solutions for future cleanroom and process requirements.

The insights gained are directly relevant to the construction of the Ripac New Build production facility in Potsdam. As the project moves from planning into execution, topics such as cleanroom design, process stability, HVAC concepts and operational efficiency played a central role.

Early engagement with technology providers and planners helps ensure that the new building is equipped with future‑proof, compliant and practical solutions, supporting both regulatory requirements and long‑term operational excellence.
