Pharma design for regulated production and automation systems
Corpus Design develops industrial product design for pharmaceutical devices and automation systems that are created under strict regulatory, procedural and economic requirements. Our work focuses on robust product architectures, clear operating logic and design solutions that support validation, long-term series production and global scalability.
The goal is to create systems that remain reliable and understandable throughout their lifecycle – from early development to international deployment.
Design for GMP, validation and process safety
Pharmaceutical production and automation systems are subject to strict regulatory frameworks, including GMP guidelines, documentation requirements and validation processes. These requirements directly influence how systems are designed, operated and maintained.
Corpus Design integrates these constraints from the outset. Design concepts address cleanability, material selection, surface logic, user guidance and service accessibility in a way that supports regulatory compliance and transparent processes. The result is a clear and comprehensible system structure that enhances auditability and process reliability without compromising functionality or economic feasibility.
Operating concepts for complex pharmaceutical processes
In pharmaceutical production environments, people work with complex systems, automated procedures and clearly defined processes on a daily basis. Unclear feedback, operating errors or misunderstandings can directly affect quality, safety and efficiency.
Corpus Design develops operating concepts that make complex functions understandable and transparent. The focus lies on clear structures, unambiguous feedback and user guidance that supports users in their day-to-day work – whether in production, quality assurance or maintenance.
UX and usability are not treated as an additional layer, but as an integral part of safe, reliable and reproducible pharmaceutical processes.
Modular product architectures and series production capability
Pharmaceutical systems must be scalable, adaptable and consistent across multiple product generations. Design plays a key role in enabling modular architectures, variant management and efficient manufacturing.
Corpus Design develops product platforms and modular design systems that support technical evolution, international series production and design-to-cost strategies. Clear interfaces, reusable modules and a consistent product language enable long-term development while maintaining operational and economic stability.
Integrated collaboration with engineering and production
Pharmaceutical design does not happen in isolation. Successful systems are the result of close collaboration between industrial design, engineering, software development and manufacturing.
Corpus Design works as an integrated development partner within existing customer processes. Design decisions are aligned early with technical, regulatory and economic requirements, helping to avoid late-stage corrections and ensuring a clear path toward series readiness.
The standards applied in medical technology also form an important reference for pharmaceutical systems. This perspective shapes our approach to products that must function reliably, comply with regulations and remain viable over many years.
Corpus Design supports development processes holistically, with the aim of creating solutions that are contemporary, sustainable and meaningful in daily operation – driven by a clear commitment to quality design and experience in complex industrial contexts.
