1. The Role of Interlock Systems in Cosmetic Manufacturing Facilities Complying with GMP - ISO 22716

In modern cosmetic manufacturing plants—especially those operating under GMP - ISO 22716 standards—controlling movement between cleanroom areas is a critical factor to ensure product quality and prevent cross-contamination. The interlock system is a specialized device that automates this process and is typically installed at key locations such as airlocks, gowning rooms, filling rooms, and packaging areas.

Thanks to its ability to control the open/close status of multiple doors simultaneously, the interlock system plays several essential roles:

• Prevents multiple doors from opening at once - minimizing the risk of cross-contamination between rooms with different cleanliness classes.
• Maintains stable cleanroom pressure - avoiding air pressure loss and the risk of particle, dust, or microbial intrusion.
• Ensures one-way traffic flow - reducing operational errors, especially in gowning rooms or airlock transitions.
• Complies with GMP and ISO 22716 inspection requirements - making it a must-have component for contamination control protocols in the cosmetics industry.

2. Common Types of Interlock Systems Used in Cosmetic Manufacturing

In cosmetic cleanroom environments, each area such as the gowning room, filling area, or packaging zone has its own operational characteristics and contamination control requirements. Therefore, selecting the right type of interlock system for each application is not only essential for operational efficiency but also critical for compliance with GMP or ISO 22716 standards during audits.

Below is a comparison of four commonly used interlock models in cosmetic manufacturing plants:

Quick selection guide by area:

• Gowning rooms and airlocks: KLD-01 or KLD-02 - simple operation, minimal technical requirements.
• Filling or formulation rooms: KLD-03 - enables event logging and violation alerts.
• Packaging or QC areas, or rooms with SCADA: KLD-Wifi - allows centralized supervision and control.

Choosing and implementing the right interlock system for each area enhances cross-contamination control and optimizes cleanroom operations to meet international cosmetic manufacturing standards.

3. Recommended Interlock System Selection by Area in a Cosmetic Manufacturing Facility

Choosing the right interlock system should not be based solely on price or technology. It must be tailored to the operational characteristics and control requirements of each area within the plant. Below are specific recommendations by functional zone in a cosmetic production line:

Gowning Room - Controlling Entry into the Cleanroom

• Function: A transitional area between the external environment and the cleanroom, typically with 2 to 3 doors.
• Main Requirements:
• Control unidirectional personnel flow.
• Prevent simultaneous opening of entry and exit doors.
• Recommended Solution:
• Mechanical or electronic relay interlocks.
• Designed for 2 doors, interlocked in a cross-open configuration.
• Prioritize simple, cost-effective solutions that still ensure safe operation.

Filling & Compounding Room - High Sterility Zone

• Function: A critical zone with high contamination risk due to direct contact with raw materials and products.
• Main Requirements:
• Alert if doors are opened in the wrong sequence.
• Log door access events (for quality inspection purposes).
• Recommended Solution:
• Microcontroller-based interlocks or systems with audio/visual alarms.
• Supports 2-4 doors, with programmable logic to match plant layout.
• Ideal for facilities certified under GMP EU/ASEAN.

Packaging & Labeling Area - High Traffic & Inventory Flow

• Function: Area with constant material transfer, packaging, and outbound logistics.
• Main Requirements:
• Integration with material pass boxes and personnel air showers.
• Centralized monitoring with real-time door status visibility.
• Recommended Solution:
• SCADA-connected or WiFi-enabled interlock systems.
• Real-time monitoring and control from a centralized dashboard.
• Optimized for smart factory environments and digital transformation initiatives.

Implementing the appropriate interlock system for each functional area not only helps maintain cleanroom integrity but also facilitates ISO 22716 and GMP certification during regular audits.

6. FAQ - Quick Answers About Interlock Systems in Cosmetic Plants

1. Is it mandatory to install interlock systems in cosmetic manufacturing plants?

Yes. According to ISO 22716 and GMP standards, transitional areas like airlocks, gowning rooms, and filling rooms must be strictly controlled to prevent cross-contamination. Interlock systems are therefore strongly recommended and often essential in GMP-compliant facilities.

2. Can electronic interlock systems be added to existing doors?

Absolutely. VCR’s interlock systems are designed for flexible integration with existing door frames. You only need to install power supply and sensors—no need to replace doors, making it a cost-effective upgrade for existing plants.

3. Do microcontroller-based interlocks log door activity history?

Yes. Several interlock models feature event logging that records door activity, useful for GMP audits and internal compliance tracking.

4. Can the interlock system be monitored or controlled remotely via central software?

Yes. The KLD-Wifi model supports WiFi or RS485 communication, easily integrating with SCADA, HMI, or BMS platforms—ideal for Industry 4.0 cosmetic manufacturing.
