The company Dr. Reckeweg & Co. GmbH maintains a production site in Bensheim for homeopathic medicinal products in solid, semisolid and liquid dosage forms. The world’s leading technical consulting and planning company io-consultants GmbH & Co. KG acted as general planner for the new construction of production and logistics areas with clean rooms on a building area of approx. 11,000 m². Dr. Reckeweg invested 33 million euros in the site.
The new production capacities in the clean room are required for the relocation of parts of the existing production as well as new products in the field of medical cannabis. io developed a BtM security concept for the production of cannabis products classified as narcotics (BtM). In addition, strongrooms, elaborate intrusion alarm systems and camera surveillance in the clean rooms were implemented. In the new high-bay warehouse with 4,000 pallet spaces, the logistics functions of the existing production are integrated and previously outsourced storage capacities are sourced in.
As general planner with many years of experience in production and logistics, io realized the project from concept design to commissioning, including qualification of the GMP trades.
“The RCW3 project represents Dr. Reckeweg’s largest single investment to date. By engaging the general planner io, the high complexity of this investment project could be made manageable.”
- David Reckeweg-Lecompte, Managing Director
With the acceptance by the regional council responsible for the approval of new pharmaceutical production facilities, the support of the realization and qualification of the GMP plants was successfully completed. The production facilities were moved from the existing plant. Production at the new site is already underway.
