In some cases the items that are being made, need to be fully hygienic and can not be exposed to airborne contaminants. This is the case for medicines and this then requires the need for more specialist equipment such as those that support Vacuum conveying like the ones from https://www.aptech.uk.com/pneumatic-conveying-systems/vacuum-conveying/

These vacuum conveyors are designed to help you move fine powders and grains in bulk across any distance that is required. The pipework that is used can be navigated across vast areas and can be placed in areas that then do not obstruct the floor space that is needed for the manufacturing of the items. One of the key benefits of using conveying systems is that they keep the products safe instead of the system so that they can not be contaminated by outside items. Equally they keep people in the working environment safe from exposure to the powders.

It is important that you get a system that will work for the types of products that you need to move and this is why it is important to work with a professional company like the one mentioned above so that they can give you the right advice for your particular work situation.
