Pharmaceutical manufacturing, biopharma innovation, and advanced medical device microelectronics operate at the cutting edge of human progress, but they also face some of the world’s highest contamination, compliance, and operational risks.
In these environments, personal protective equipment (PPE) is not just about operator safety, it’s the frontline defense for product protection. A single breach can trigger cGMP deviations, product recalls, regulatory action, and loss of public trust.
That’s why life sciences industry leaders worldwide rely on Ansell cleanroom PPE solutions, for integrated head-to-toe cleanroom product protection designed to maintain barrier integrity, support Annex 1 compliance, and protect both products and people.
Cleanroom and controlled environments are under unprecedented pressure.
Our promise, “Leading the world to a safer future” is backed by five strategic pillars that work together to deliver unmatched product and process protection.
With 130+ years in safety innovation and 700+ regulatory and quality experts, we understand the hazards, workflows, and compliance demands of every life sciences application.
Owning 6 in-house ISO Class 4, 5, & 7 cleanrooms and 3 gamma irradiation facilities gives us full process control from manufacturing, post processing and sterilization, reducing contamination risk and ensuring consistent quality.
Our exclusive Ansell Cytostatic Permeation Program (ACPP) tests gloves under real-use/dynamic conditions, giving you accurate chemical permeation data to protect products in critical processes.
Staying Annex 1 compliant has never been easier. From sterile cleanroom gloves and RABS/isolator sleeves to aseptically packaged and presented garments and cleanroom goggles. Ansell’s broad portfolio is designed to meet the specific needs of life sciences applications. Every product is rigorously tested to the most stringent global standards, ensuring both product protection and operator safety.
Application-specific examples:
With 14 manufacturing facilities, 24 distribution centers, and a diversified global supply chain. By diversifying manufacturing, we are able to achieve greater supply chain flexibility and mitigate supply disruptions, enabling us to maximize on-time and in-full product delivery.
Our multi-sourcing strategy ensures uninterrupted PPE availability, protecting your ability to maintain product quality without supply chain disruptions.
Through AnsellGUARDIAN™ assessments, we provide tailored PPE strategies that optimize product protection, reduce SKUs, and cut costs.
Since 2010, we’ve delivered:
Through the Ansell Earth program, we integrate sustainability into every product lifecycle stage:
As part of the Ansell Earth program, we are rethinking every element of cleanroom packaging to reduce environmental impact while maintaining the highest standards of product protection and sterility.
Together, these innovations are helping our life sciences partners meet sustainability targets, improve gowning efficiency, and protect critical products from contamination.
Through our WEI technologies, we ensure PPE is comfortable and easy to use, reducing donning errors and improving compliance.
Our technologies include:
By integrating these innovations, Ansell helps life sciences teams maintain compliance with Annex 1 gowning requirements, improve operator endurance, and safeguard the product’s sterile barrier from start to finish.
These awards reflect more than corporate recognition, they validate the trust our life sciences partners place in us to protect products, people, and the planet without compromise.
Annex 1 requires a holistic contamination control strategy, where gowning, gloves, goggles, and other PPE work in synergy to maintain product protection.
