ASME BPE (BioProcessing Equipment)

ASME BPE (BioProcessing Equipment) is a set of standards developed by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers to ensure that equipment used in biopharmaceutical manufacturing is designed, constructed, and maintained to meet strict hygiene, safety, and quality requirements. It covers aspects like materials, surface finishes, welding, and cleanability, aiming to prevent contamination and ensure product purity. These standards help manufacturers produce safe, reliable biological medicines such as vaccines and therapies, facilitating consistent quality and regulatory compliance in the bioprocessing industry.
