The answer to final pack off containment.
The DoverPac® continuous liner system provides the advantage of replacing packs without breaking containment, unlike using inflatable heads or having operators shuffle tube stock. Standard continuous liner pack contains 150 feet of film material and fills up to 30, 185-liter drums. The system is available in 50, 100 and 150-foot length packs. Salient features include:
- Prepackaged liners save operators’ time
- Individual packing maximizes in-plant cleanliness
- cGMP benefits over open drum filling
- Replace packs without breaking containment
- Clean in place (CIP) interface incorporated
- Anti-static FDA and EU compliant materials
- Eliminates cross contamination concerns
- Interface hardware works with DoverPac® or continuous liner system (saves capital cost)
- Operates in Ex environment

Alan E. George is the Pharmaceutical Product Line Manager for ILC Dover’s Containment Products. He is actively involved in developing applications of flexible containment for various types of process equipment by working directly with pharmaceutical manufacturers and ILC’s engineering staff. These designs are then manufactured by ILC to support the production of potent compounds. Mr. George’s background over the past 25 years with ILC has ranged from design through management of programs and the introduction of new products for both Department of Defense and commercial uses where softgoods are designed to meet high reliability requirements such as those facing the pharmaceutical industry today. The designs being implemented are based on technologies developed through ILC’s roles for such products as all of the space suits used by NASA since Neil Armstrong first walked on the moon, airship and aerostats envelopes, and the landing impact bags for the Mars Pathfinder program.
