ASME – American Society of Mechanical Engineers  As a member of ASME we are informed of the problems faced by manufacturers equipment designers, process engineers and fabricators particularly in the areas of standards, tolerances, dimensions, grades of stainless steel and good design techniques.  The ASME BPE standard provides designers and process engineers with a reliable way of specifying Hygienic Tubes, Valves and Fittings.  Ultimately, this should lead to improved overall project and maintenance costs.
SME – Society of Manufacturing Engineers     As a member of SME, the world's leading professional society serving the manufacturing industries, we have access to its publications, Technical library, expositions, professional development resources and member programs. SME influences more than 500,000 manufacturing executives, managers and engineers worldwide.
ISPE ISPE, the International Society for Pharmaceutical Engineering, is a global, not-for-profit membership organization that provides education, training, and technical publications to Life Science professionals. ISPE is committed to the advancement of the educational and technical efficiency of its members through forums for the exchange of ideas and practical experience. All technical areas of the healthcare manufacturing industry are represented among the ISPE membership. Engineers, microbiologists, chemists, QA/QC, production, process development, pharmacists, regulatory and training personnel, academia, suppliers, and other professionals contribute their expertise to the industry through their participation in ISPE activities.
IChemE The Institution of Chemical Engineers (IChemE) is the professional body for chemical and process engineers. Originally founded in 1922, IChemE has grown continuously to its current status as a leading engineering organisation with an international membership across more than 80 countries approaching 25,000. As well as promoting the advancement of chemical engineering science and practice within the profession, we aim to increase public recognition of chemical engineering, both in terms of what chemical and process engineers do and the benefits that their work brings to society.We are active in developing and raising standards in education, accrediting courses at some 60 higher education institutions, more than half of which are outside the UK.
