CPCI™ Cleaning Validation Coupons
The update to Annex 15 (Section 1.12) now requires recovery studies from all product contact materials in the equipment, and with all the sampling methods used. CPCI™'s internal research work and our projects for clients require many coupons made from many different Materials of Construction (MoC). These coupons are needed for Cleanability studies, Swab and Rinse Recovery studies and to create sets of Visual Inspection Coupons for qualification of inspectors and operators following ASTM E3263.
Since high quality, re-useable coupons from many MoCs are not readily available, CPCI™ has had to manufacture all the coupons we need by ourselves. Now, as a service to industry, and to help defray the cost of manufacturing these coupons, CPCI™ is offering them for sale. If you appreciate the work we have been doing and the (FREE) publications we offer at our Researchgate website, please consider helping us by purchasing any coupons you need from CPCI™.
CPCI™ Lab has a full machine shop in-house (drill press, band saws, grinders and polishers) including a Laser Cutter for cutting and engraving coupons. CPCI™ Lab also has three 3D Printers for printing the storage boxes for protecting our coupons from contamination and damage. CPCI™ makes all coupons in accordance with the ASTM G121 "Standard Practice for Preparation of Contaminated Test Coupons for the Evaluation of Cleaning Agents".
