Validair Monitoring Solutions Ltd supplies environmental monitoring (EM) and contamination control solutions from TSI Inc. and ViGIE to customers across the UK and Ireland. While Matt Plocki is based at VMSL’s headquarters in Malvern, Worcestershire, he will support the firm’s customers in all territories with his specialist facility monitoring and particle counter instrumentation knowledge.

Plocki began his journey in the contamination control sector with TSI Inc. where he served as a service technician, dealing with various test & measurement instruments and associated calibration systems, and subsequently joined Validair Monitoring Solutions Ltd as a Technical Support & Development Engineer. After a five-year tenure at VMSL, he moved into a specialist engineering post in pharmaceutical production with Guy’s Hospital, London.

Deborah Haisman, Commercial Director at Validair Monitoring Solutions Ltd. said: “Now that Matt has returned to Validair from a key role in pharma manufacturing with invaluable first-hand experience of facility monitoring systems, he will be a great asset to our team. His expertise will see him advise and support Validair customers who are considering, implementing or using our FMS solutions. We are delighted to welcome him back.”

From his time with TSI and more recently in pharmaceutical production at Guy’s Hospital, Plocki also brings applications experience of the TSI BioTrak Real-Time Viable Particle Counter – a microbial EM system that is unique in the global market and that has come into its own with the recent publication of the EU GMP Annex 1 update, which mandates continuous monitoring and the creation of Contamination Control Systems (CCS) to which the BioTrak is suited.

“The BioTrak is not only topical but hugely relevant in the pharma sector thanks to the revised Annex 1,” explained Haisman. “Matt’s experience with this game-changing real-time EM solution is another avenue of practical expertise that we can immediately put at the disposal of our customers and other pharma professionals looking for the optimum non-inferior ARMM solution to meet Annex 1 challenges.”

The company is headquartered in Malvern, Worcestershire, with associated test & certification business operations delivered by its sister company, Validair (Euro) Limited (t/a Validair Diamond Scientific) in Chester-le-Street, County Durham. Validair is a Gold Standard channel partner for TSI Inc., a manufacturer of particle counters and environmental monitoring software.
