Why Use Barrier Isolators?
In recent years, the use of barrier isolator systems for aseptic filling of pharmaceutical liquids and powders has gained industry and regulatory acceptance. Barrier isolator systems provide greater sterility assurance, increased productivity and reduced operational costs.

Why Carlisle-Walker Aseptic Filling Barrier Isolator Systems?
The Carlisle-Walker Barrier Technology Group has the most experienced staff of technical sales representatives, engineers and technicians in the industry. Walker design, fabrication, and project management expertise means that the proper system will be customized to your requirements. Walker-Carlisle has worked with several filling equipment vendors to develop turn-key pharmaceutical production lines which provide cost effective aseptic filling operations without sacrificing line speed and overall performance.

Why Carlisle-Walker Design and Fabrication?
Carlisle-Walker engineers use computer design incorporating ergonomic analysis to provide the most advanced features in a barrier isolator filling system. The use of "unidirectional" (laminar) airflow design with overpressure systems and integrated chemical decontamination technology results in aseptic environments, which are superior in performance to traditional clean room filling suites.
