We recently visited Vaccinopolis, the impressive and state-of-the-art research facility located on the University of Antwerp campus. This pioneering site is dedicated to accelerating research into infectious diseases and the evaluation of vaccines, with a strong focus on clinical trials and safety.
During an insightful tour led by Bart Van Meerbergen, Head of Operations at Vaccinopolis, we gained a unique perspective on the structure and functioning of this high-tech environment. It is a place where clinical research, specialized laboratories, and multidisciplinary expertise converge in one integrated infrastructure.
For this advanced facility, Clayton Steam supplied an electric steam generator, type V-15 (150 kWe), equipped with a fully modulating, thyristor-controlled power regulation. This technology ensures precise, energy-efficient, and reliable steam delivery — a critical requirement in an environment where control and precision are key.
We are proud that our steam solution contributes to the performance of this internationally recognized centre for vaccine research. We thank Vaccinopolis for their trust in Clayton as a partner for sustainable and innovative steam technology.
Clayton is a global manufacturer of industrial steam solutions. European production and engineering have been carried out since 1961 in Bornem, Belgium, where Clayton of Belgium serves as the EMEA headquarters and main production hub for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The global headquarters of the Clayton Group is located in California, with additional production facilities in Mexico and Europe, and subsidiaries in France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
