BUBENDORF, Switzerland (May 31st, 2016) — CARBOGEN AMCIS, the Swiss-based company offering process development and manufacturing of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) to the pharmaceutical industry, has announced the extension of its operations in Bubendorf.
 
On May 26th, 2016, we (CARBOGEN AMCIS) have undersigned the acquisition of the land and buildings of GEA Pharma Systems AG in Bubendorf, Hauptstrasse 145. The acquisition close to our current headquarters will become effective on Jan. 1st, 2017.
 
Located on 5’200 m² of land, the 3360 m2 multi-story building is divided into laboratory, production, storage and office areas and provides a set of clean-room GMP compliant suites. We are planning modification work in order to adapt the building to our specific requirements and convert more of the facility into GMP operations areas.

It will allow us to significantly extend our laboratory capacity for highly potent development and small scale production as well as analytical support.” said Stephan Fritschi, Vice-President Operations at CARBOGEN AMCIS. “Operations are scheduled to expand into the new building in 2017”.

It will allow CARBOGEN AMCIS to keep its position as an industry leader and outsourcing partner for complex highly potent APIs and ADCs”.
