Sterile Services

Facilities & Services

Purpose-built cleanroom facilities in North Perth — ISO-classified compounding suites, environmental monitoring and validated processes behind every sterile preparation.

Compounding facilities

Oxford Compounding operates separate non-sterile and sterile laboratories at our North Perth premises. The sterile suite is purpose-built: a classified cleanroom with laminar airflow cabinets, pressure-cascaded ante-areas, HEPA-filtered air and controlled gowning procedures, supported by a dedicated preparation and quarantine area.

USP 797 compliance requires that the preparation of sterile pharmaceuticals occurs in an ISO Class 5 (Class 100) environment, within a buffer area of ISO Class 7 (Class 10,000), plus ante-areas of at least ISO Class 8 (Class 100,000). Our facility is built and monitored around these classifications.

  • ISO Class 5 laminar airflow workstations for aseptic preparation
  • ISO Class 7 buffer room with ISO Class 8 ante-area and gowning zone
  • HEPA filtration with pressure differential monitoring
  • Separate non-sterile laboratory for creams, capsules, troches and liquids
  • Controlled storage including refrigerated and temperature-logged areas
  • Dedicated analytical and quality documentation workspace

Cleanroom consumables and monitoring

Everything entering the cleanroom is selected for use in classified areas — the same products we use to clean and sanitise our own rooms and laboratories.

Gowning
Sterile gowns, coveralls, hoods, overshoes, masks and powder-free sterile gloves used under a documented gowning sequence.
Environmental monitoring
Contact plates, settle plates and active air samplers used on a routine schedule, with trended results reviewed by the quality team.
Cleaning and sanitisation
Validated sporicidal and disinfectant agents applied on a defined cleaning roster, with records retained for every session.

Quality systems

  • Operator aseptic technique validated through routine media fills
  • Master formulation records and per-batch manufacturing records
  • Ingredient traceability from approved, documented suppliers
  • Deviation and out-of-specification investigation procedures
  • Pharmacist release review before any preparation is dispatched
  • Practices aligned to TGA and Pharmacy Board compounding standards
