Piping construction, Plant engineering, and Skids and package units

Our services include plant engineering, piping construction, skids and package units for production plants in the pharmaceutical and life science sectors in Switzerland.

Piping for clean and black utilities

Insulation

Fire protection technology

Non-destructive testing

Welding technology

Project management, scheduling, cost and progress reporting.

Skids and package units

Time to market is a decisive factor for the life science industry. The time frame for fabrication can be significantly shortened due to performance of 100% of fabrication-activities in the workshop.

Downstream and upstream processes
CIP/SIP systems
Storage and distribution systems with ozonisation

Storage and distribution systems for WFI with cooling and heating elements
Ultrafiltration plants
Decontamination systems

A FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) on assembled units is performed in the workshop prior delivery. Consequently, the amount of activities on site is reduced to a minimum. Additionally, during commissioning and validation the amount of appearing queries is minor as a check is performed already in advance. Skids from AZI are therefore the solution when time is critical.

AZI plans and builds on the basis of years of experience and comprehensive process know-how, including customised control and visualisation.

Piping and Construction

Our core competence is the mechanical installation of piping for Clean- and Black-Utilities for project in the pharmaceutical industry.

Safety management
Prefabrication, installation and system handover for piping and corresponding supports
Material procurement, incoming inspection and storage

Quality management, documentation and NDT
Project management - processing, reporting and scheduling

The demands of projects and the associated decreasing shorter time frames between planning, procurement, installation and system handover require proper planning and quick implementation to changes.

On AZI-projects are working competent and dynamic teams, both in project engineering and also on the construction site. These are experienced with working under this conditions and have already implemented this in various projects for well-known customers in the pharmaceutical and life science sectors.

Projects

Since 2016, we have been jointly implementing projects for life science, pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies in Switzerland. Our services include plant engineering, pipeline construction, skids and package units.
