In the cosmetics industry, controlling particulate contamination is a key challenge. Whether for raw material sampling or for protecting production and packaging lines, every detail matters to ensure the quality of finished products. Erlab supports its customers with air protection and filtration solutions designed to meet specific on-site constraints.
An urgent need in a constrained space
Recently, a cosmetics manufacturer contacted Erlab to address a very specific issue: rapidly creating a controlled particulate environment for raw material sampling, while operating within a limited workspace.
The challenge was twofold. On the one hand, securing current operations and supporting an increase in production capacity. On the other hand, anticipating a planned relocation the following year, without investing in a fixed or short-term solution.
A scalable solution designed for today… and tomorrow
After analysing the environment and site constraints, Erlab’s teams designed a custom-made P.Box laminar airflow ceiling, initially in a compact 2 × 2 metre configuration. This solution integrates seamlessly into the existing premises while providing an optimal level of protection against particulate contamination.
One of the key aspects of the project was its scalability. From the outset, the filtered laminar airflow ceiling was designed to be extended at a later stage to a final 4 × 2 metre configuration when installed in the customer’s new facilities. The result is a long-term investment, with no need to replace the initial equipment.
Erlab expertise supporting industrial performance
This project clearly illustrates Erlab’s approach: delivering mobile, scalable, high-quality controlled particulate environments capable of adapting to immediate constraints while supporting customers’ future growth. Each solution is designed as a genuine industrial performance tool, ensuring process continuity and reliability.
An installation praised by the customer
Following installation, the customer highlighted the quality of the P.Box air flow ceiling, as well as the professionalism and expertise of Erlab’s technical team, who ensured a smooth and efficient implementation. A successful collaboration in support of controlled and sustainable production.
