Walker Barrier Systems units are built to support a wide range of processes and platforms that will be required by CIADM to manufacture biosecurity medical countermeasures.
Construction of the mobile clean rooms began in May 2013, and all eight are expected to be in operation at the NCTM by early 2014. The first unit was delivered in January 2014.
