CARBOGEN AMCIS AG Makes Capital Investments in ADC

Switzerland-based CARBOGEN AMCIS AG announces a series of significant investments aimed at enhancing its antibody drug conjugate (ADC) capabilities to better respond to increasing demand for ADCs in the development of highly targeted cancer treatments. The investments include a $4 million USD clean room clinical supply facility at the Bubendorf, Switzerland site and a $950,000 USD upgrade of the sterile manufacturing area at the facility in Riom, France. By adding on to the current High Potency facility, CARBOGEN AMCIS is well positioned to offer its partners seamless development and manufacturing services for ADCs.

“The new targeted cancer treatments, such as Adcetris, Kadcyla and Mylotarg, have fueled a growing demand for ADCs and we made the decision to expand our ADC service offer to support customers in the development of next-generation cancer treatments. We have taken into account customer feedback and market dynamics and are confident that our enhanced infrastructure will enable us to provide our partners in the pharmaceutical industry a needed resource in drug development,” said Mark C. Griffiths, CEO, CARBOGEN AMCIS and the Dishman Group.

The Bubendorf facility now features a new 100-sqm ADC clean room suite dedicated to the development and production of ADC clinical material under current good manufacturing practices (cGMP), and contains grade D and grade C areas to allow aseptic and safe handling of highly potent material at occupational exposure limit values (OELs) below 1 µg/m3 at 8-hour time weighted average (8h-TWA). A system of pressure cascade and air locks for material and personnel fully segregates both areas of the clean room from the rest of the building and ensures sterile operations within both compartments.

The grade D area of the lab is dedicated to operations such as the preparation of reagents and buffers as well as the sterilization of production equipment by dry oven or autoclave. The segregated grade C area is exclusively used for the conjugation, the purification, and the packaging of ADC material under cGMP and features (a) an isolator for the preparation of toxin solutions, (b) a barrier system for aseptic filtration, (c) a walk-in fume hood for handling of organic solvents, and (d) a bio-safety cabinet (classified grade C) for antibodies and ADCs.

The upgrades at our Riom, France location include the implementation of a new vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VHP) disinfection system and the installation of two new aseptic filling isolators operating under nitrogen atmosphere and at regulated temperature, which will expand the Grade A (ISO 5) manufacturing capability at OELs below 1 µg/m3 8h-TWA, allowing a maximum batch size up to 5’000 units (2 mL vials).

“In addition to strengthening our ADC capabilities, over the past 12 months, we have built a cross-functional team with expertise in chemistry, biochemistry and biology that is well equipped to support our customers’ cancer drug development programmes,” added Griffiths. Dr. Scott Miller, head of special projects, a chemist with over 19 years industry experience in the commercialization of oncology drugs, will lead CARBOGEN AMCIS ADC team and will support customers involved in ADC projects.

As major oncology players focus on ADCs as a high-potential opportunity in the development of targeted cancer therapies, CARBOGEN AMCIS offers a valuable outsourcing solution for the complex process of ADC development.

CARBOGEN AMCIS Passes Successful Inspection by Swissmedic

CARBOGEN AMCIS, the Swiss-based pharmaceutical process development and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) manufacturing company, has announced a successful inspection by Swissmedic of its recently acquired site in Vionnaz, Switzerland.

The site has been inspected by Swissmedic and by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the past and the re-audit is due to the change of ownership. The two-and-a-half-day audit covered the Quality System related to development and manufacture of highly potent APIs at the Vionnaz facility, including Analytical and Quality Control. This is the first stage in the facility’s cGMP certification process, which should be completed in the next two months.

The high potency facility in Vionnaz is designed to operate at an occupational exposure limit (OEL) level down to 0.05μg/m3. CARBOGEN AMCIS acquired the facility in August 2014 to significantly increase the development and manufacturing capacity of highly potent APIs. This site has already demonstrated the capability to produce highly potent warheads and linkers, which can be transferred to our bio conjugation facility in Switzerland to create Antibody Drug conjugates (ADC) for cancer treatment therapy.

"The positive conclusion of this inspection demonstrates our commitment to the highest standards of quality across all of CARBOGEN AMCIS’ facilities,” said Martin Schneider, Chief Quality Officer at CARBOGEN AMCIS. "We acquired this site last year and, with the support of our expert groups in Switzerland, the Vionnaz team has been able to demonstrate to Swissmedic that CARBOGEN AMCIS meets all aspects of quality to supply our customers with GMP API’s from the facility. This continues our long track record of successful regulatory audits.”

“My team on-site is highly qualified with more than 10 years of experience in manufacturing highly potent APIs. Combined with our 15 years of expertise at CARBOGEN AMCIS, we managed to create really attractive synergies,” said Rolf Tunnemann, Director of CARBOGEN AMCIS Vionnaz facility. “As we move forward, we will continue to pursue opportunities to improve quality. We now have to follow the process and validate cGMP certification in the next few months.”

“I am proud of what our team has achieved in such a short length of time and delighted that we will be able to continue to support our clients growing needs,” commented Mark Griffiths, CEO, CARBOGEN AMCIS and the Dishman Group.

Dishman Celebrates a Decade of Success Since Acquisition of CARBOGEN AMCIS

  • AHMEDABAD, INDIA, August 11, 2016 – Dishman Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals Ltd (DPCL), leading outsourcing partner for the global pharmaceutical industry, today marked the 10-year anniversary of its acquisition of CARBOGEN AMCIS. A significant milestone of growth and development of Indian-Swiss business relations.

Dishman Celebrates a Decade of Success Since Acquisition of CARBOGEN AMCIS

AHMEDABAD, INDIA, August 11, 2016 – Dishman Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals Ltd (DPCL), leading outsourcing partner for the global pharmaceutical industry, today marked the 10-year anniversary of its acquisition of CARBOGEN AMCIS. A significant milestone of growth and development of Indian-Swiss business relations.
 
CARBOGEN AMCIS (headquarters in Bubendorf, Switzerland) and Dishman Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals Ltd (headquarters in Ahmedabad, India) are both suppliers of complex services and products for the global pharmaceutical industry. In addition, each company belongs to the high-tech end of their country’s respective field.

“The acquisition by the Dishman Group of two pharmaceutical businesses from the company formerly known as Solutia Europe, which together formed CARBOGEN AMCIS, is a brilliant example of the impressive achievements companies can make through collaboration,” said Mark Griffiths, CEO, Dishman Group. “I am very proud of all our employees’ contributions to a decade of not only team work and business relationships, but also the sharing of cultures between India and Switzerland.”

More than 380 official representatives, customers, business partners, investors and employees will gather to celebrate this success during a Fusion event in Bubendorf on August 11, 2016. 
 
A portion of the ceremony will pay tribute to Mr. J.R. Vyas, Chairman, Owner of the Dishman Group and Founder of Dishman Pharmaceuticals and Chemicals Ltd.

“The ceremony gives us an opportunity to thank Mr. Vyas for his 10-year contribution to the success of this collaboration,” said Griffiths. “His achievement in seamlessly bringing two cultures together is remarkable, and I look forward to watching him lead Dishman Group into further growth and expansion for years to come.”

“Loyal clients, consistent quality confirmed through numerous successful audits by international regulators, as well as further planned expansions make a bright future for Dishman Group,” commented Mr. Vyas. “I am honoured to play a role in continuing to build a positive outlook for Indian-Swiss collaborative business ventures.”

Since 2006, both companies have played crucial roles for the group’s growth. The Dishman Manchester site was successfully integrated into CARBOGEN AMCIS in 2007, followed by the integration of the Shanghai site in 2015. CARBOGEN AMCIS’ footprint and capacity expanded through additional site acquisitions (Riom, France in 2012; Vionnaz, Switzerland in 2014) and the recently announced facility expansion in Bubendorf through the acquisition of land and buildings of GEA Pharma Systems AG. 

Today, the multi-million dollars service provider operates ten sites (two in India, one in Netherlands, four in Switzerland, one in the United Kingdom, one in France, and one in China), employing more than two thousand employees, and records a highly successful audit history.

CARBOGEN AMCIS Announces a Successful Swissmedic Inspection of its Site in Vionnaz, Switzerland

  • BUBENDORF, Switzerland (February 16, 2018) — Switzerland-based CARBOGEN AMCIS AG, a pharmaceutical process development and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) manufacturing company, announced today that its Vionnaz site has successfully completed a Swissmedic inspection.

CARBOGEN AMCIS Announces a Successful Swissmedic Inspection of its Site in Vionnaz, Switzerland

BUBENDORF, Switzerland (February 16, 2018) — Switzerland-based CARBOGEN AMCIS AG, a pharmaceutical process development and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) manufacturing company, announced today that its Vionnaz site has successfully completed a Swissmedic inspection.

Swissmedic conducted the inspection (general surveillance audits) over two days, on December 12-13, 2017 at CARBOGEN AMCIS’ Vionnaz site. The inspection covered the Quality System related to the development and manufacture of highly potent APIs, including Analytical and Quality Control. No significant concerns were discovered during the inspection, which will result in the renewal of the GMP-certificates for the site.

The high potency facility in Vionnaz is designed to operate at an occupational exposure limit (OEL) level down to 0.05μg/m3. CARBOGEN AMCIS acquired the facility in August 2014 to significantly increase the development and manufacturing capacity of highly potent APIs. This site has already demonstrated the capability to produce highly potent warheads and linkers, which can be transferred to our bio conjugation facility in Switzerland to create Antibody Drug conjugates (ADC) for cancer treatment therapy.

 “This inspection follows the first audit by Swissmedic in 2016 for the cGMP certification after we acquired this site,” said Martin Schneider, Chief Quality Officer at CARBOGEN AMCIS. “This successful inspection underscores CARBOGEN AMICS’ track record of high quality development and manufacturing. Our other facilities in Switzerland also successfully passed a series of audits last year; FDA audit in October 2017 for the Bubendorf (Headquarters) and Swissmedic inspections for the sites in Bubendorf, Neuland and Aarau in July 2017. This proves our commitment to consistently fulfill the highest quality requirements for all of our sites”.

 “I am proud of what the Vionnaz team has been able to achieve with support by our expert groups in Switzerland. Demonstrating to Swissmedic its capacity to meet all aspects of quality is a significant accomplishment,” said Mark Griffiths, CEO, Dishman Carbogen Amcis group. “This facility was acquired more than 3 years ago to extend our Antibody Drug Conjugate Services and increase the development and manufacturing capacity of highly potent APIs. I am delighted of this successful integration that meets the constantly growing demand of our customers.”

In addition, we have arranged specific external training for staff to ensure internal audits are conducted correctly and in a consistent manner,” added Ian Burley.

“This certification process is integrated in our commitment for continuous quality made by CARBOGEN AMCIS group in order to provide full customer satisfaction and safety by ensuring the quality of the production, storage and shipment of products,” said Robert Rhodes, Manchester Site Director/Director Technical Operations. “In order to maintain the standard, we will be audited every 6 months to ensure compliance is met.”

Nevertheless, we want to assure you that, even under these circumstances, we will continue our operations during this period of uncertainty for as long as it remains safe for our employees and/or physically possible within National Government regulations.

    We continually assess the situation to ensure the continuity of our services to you.

    To this end, we review daily the situation and all projects. If the situation on a daily basis would have any consequences for our work on your behalf, be assured that we will inform you, in an individual and personalized manner to discuss individual projects and plans. Accordingly, there is no need to request any further update at this time, your project manager or commercial contact will get in touch with you if at all necessary. 

    Again, we are committed to doing everything possible to limit the impact this situation could have on your projects.

    A summary of the measures already implemented by our teams to protect our employees and partners is attached to this letter.

    I wish you and your families and colleagues all the very best, including good health, and sincerely hope that this situation will improve over the coming weeks and months. Our entire global team remains at your disposal for any questions you may have.

    Actions already implemented:

    1. Placing employees’ health, customers’ protection and patient safety first
    • Our employees receive regular updates and clear guidelines, especially hygiene requirements.
    • We have already taken measures to protect our employees at all our different locations, including limitation of contact (e.g. handshakes and other forms of physical greetings, …), quarantine of people coming back from high-risk areas, and installing disinfectant dispensers at site entrances.
    • Sick employees are not permitted to come on site. They must also inform HR of the state of their health.
    • We are following all local authorities’ recommendations and instructions to fight against virus propagation at all our site.
    • In the case of external visitors or third party contractors, the host/internal contact person is responsible for clarifying (in advance) whether the people stayed in or were in contact with persons from crisis areas in the last 14 days. In the event of suspected cases, the visit will be postponed. This procedure is under evaluation on a weekly basis and can be adjusted if the situation requires it.
    • All customer visits have been cancelled
    1. A secure supply chain

    Now as the pandemic status has been declared by the WHO the situation is considered as a Force Majeure situation. We do every effort to keep our supply chain channels open. Our supply chain has been assessed and we do not see any short-term risk of product shortage, because a large part of it is integrated within our group of companies.

    1. Avoiding unnecessary risks
    • All our meetings are to be conducted over teleconferences to limit face-to-face assemblies (e.g., restriction of travel between sites excepted for emergencies.)
    • Business trips are not permitted
    • We are moving to home office work for employees who are able to do so in order to minimize direct close personal contact with colleagues. Any colleagues in contact with the crisis area or suspected of being infected are required to remain at home and self-isolate.

    As a general reminder, even under normal conditions outside of pandemic periods, all our workers operate according to standard manufacturing procedures and apply to quality standards/SOPs dedicated to hygiene, (Personnel Hygiene, Clothing Policy and Industrial Hygiene) that maintains a high standard level of protection for people and products.

    Chers clients et partenaires,

    Le groupe d’entreprises Dishman Carbogen Amcis prend très au sérieux la menace que représente le COVID-19 (Coronavirus) et a déjà mis en oeuvre un ensemble de mesures visant à limiter tout risque pour ses employés, ses clients et ses patients. Nous avons déjà constitué une équipe de travail spécialisée qui surveille l’épidémie de COVID-19 et tous les processus ont été analysés au regard des risques. Cela nous permet d’assurer le bon déroulement de toutes nos opérations et nous ne subissons actuellement aucun impact sur nos activités.

    Nous sommes confrontés à une situation unique dans plusieurs des pays où nous sommes implantés. Les gouvernements nationaux instaurent des mesures et émettent des conseils à l’intention des entreprises et du public qui auront une incidence sur notre organisation. Néanmoins, nous tenons à vous assurer que, même dans ces circonstances, nous maintiendrons nos activités pendant cette période d’incertitude aussi longtemps que cela restera sans danger pour nos employés et/ou physiquement possible dans le cadre des réglementations du gouvernement national.

    Nous évaluons continuellement la situation afin d’assurer la continuité de nos services envers vous.

    Pour ce faire, nous examinons quotidiennement la situation et tous les projets. S’il devait y avoir des conséquences au quotidien sur notre travail en votre nom, soyez assuré que nous vous en informerons, de manière individuelle et personnalisée, pour discuter des projets et des plans individuels. Par conséquent, il n’est pas nécessaire de demander d’autres mises à jour pour le moment, votre chef de projet ou interlocuteur commercial prendra contact avec vous si nécessaire.

    Une fois encore, nous nous engageons à faire tout notre possible pour limiter l’impact que cette situation pourrait avoir sur vos projets.

    Un récapitulatif des mesures déjà mises en oeuvre par nos équipes pour protéger nos employés et partenaires est joint à cette lettre.

    Je vous souhaite, ainsi qu’à vos familles et à vos collègues, le meilleur, notamment une bonne santé, et j’espère sincèrement que cette situation s’améliorera au cours des semaines et des mois à venir. L’ensemble de notre équipe se tient à votre disposition pour répondre à toutes les questions que vous pourriez avoir.

    Global CEO
    Dishman Carbogen Amcis


    Mesures déjà mises en oeuvre :

    1. Priorité à la santé des employés, à la protection des clients et à la sécurité des patients

    • Nos employés reçoivent régulièrement des mises à jour et des directives claires, notamment concernant les exigences en matière d’hygiène.

    • Nous avons déjà pris des mesures pour protéger nos employés sur tous nos différents sites, notamment la limitation des contacts (par exemple, poignées de main et autres formes de salutations physiques, etc.), la mise en quarantaine des personnes revenant de zones à haut risque, et l’installation de distributeurs de désinfectant à l’entrée des sites.

    • Les employés malades ne sont pas autorisés à venir sur les sites. Ils doivent également informer les Ressources humaines de leur état de santé.

    • Nous nous conformons à toutes les recommandations et instructions des autorités locales pour lutter contre la propagation des virus sur l’ensemble de nos sites.

    • Concernant les visiteurs externes ou les tiers contractuels, l’interlocuteur hôte/interne est tenu de préciser (à l’avance) si les personnes ont séjourné ou ont été en contact avec des personnes provenant de zones de crise au cours des 14 derniers jours. En cas de suspicion, la visite sera reportée. Cette procédure fait l’objet d’une évaluation hebdomadaire et peut être adaptée si la situation l’exige.

    • Toutes les visites de clients ont été annulées.

    1. Une chaîne d’approvisionnement sûre

    Maintenant que le statut de pandémie a été déclaré par l’OMS, la situation est considérée comme un cas de force majeure. Nous faisons tout notre possible pour que nos canaux d’approvisionnement restent ouverts. Après évaluation de notre chaîne d’approvisionnement, nous n’anticipons aucun risque de pénurie de produits à court terme, car celle-ci est en grande partie intégrée à notre groupe d’entreprises.

    1. Prévention des risques inutiles

    • Toutes nos réunions doivent se dérouler par téléconférence afin de limiter les rassemblements en face à face (par exemple, restriction des déplacements entre les sites sauf en cas d’urgence).

    • Les voyages d’affaires ne sont pas autorisés.

    • Nous incitons fortement au télétravail pour les employés qui le peuvent, afin de réduire au minimum les contacts personnels rapprochés et directs avec les collègues. Tous les collègues en contact avec la zone de crise ou soupçonnés d’être infectés sont tenus de rester chez eux et de s’isoler.

    Pour rappel, même dans des conditions normales en dehors des périodes pandémiques, tous nos collaborateurs travaillent selon des procédures de fabrication standard et appliquent des normes de qualité/procédures opérationnelles normalisées dédiées à l’hygiène (hygiène du personnel, politique vestimentaire et hygiène industrielle) qui maintiennent un niveau de protection élevé pour les personnes et les produits.

    Sehr geehrte Kunden und Partner,

    Wir von der Unternehmensgruppe Dishman Carbogen Amcis nehmen die mit COVID-19 verbundenen Risiken sehr ernst und haben bereits eine Reihe von Massnahmen ergriffen, um das Risiko für unsere Mitarbeiter, Kunden und Patienten zu begrenzen. Wir haben bereits ein spezielles Arbeitsteam eingerichtet, das den COVID-19-Ausbruch überwacht, und alle Arbeitsprozesse wurden im Hinblick auf die bestehenden Risiken analysiert. Dies ermöglicht uns einen reibungslosen Ablauf all unserer Tätigkeiten, und bis zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt hat dies keine Auswirkungen auf unsere Arbeit.

    Wir stehen in mehreren Ländern, in denen wir Niederlassungen haben, vor einer außssergewöhnlichen Situation. Die nationalen Regierungen setzen Massnahmen um und geben Empfehlungen sowohl für Unternehmen als auch für die Öffentlichkeit, die sich auf unsere Organisation auswirken. Wir möchten Ihnen jedoch versichern, dass wir auch unter den gegebenen Umständen unsere Geschäftstätigkeit in dieser Zeit der Unsicherheit fortsetzen werden, solange dies für unsere Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter sicher und/oder im Rahmen der Vorschriften der nationalen Regierungen physisch möglich bleibt.

    Wir bewerten die Situation kontinuierlich, um die Weiterführung unserer Dienstleistungen für Sie sicherzustellen.

    Zu diesem Zweck überprüfen wir täglich die Situation und alle Projekte. Wenn die tägliche Situation Konsequenzen auf unsere für Sie geleistete Arbeit haben sollte, können Sie sich darauf verlassen, dass wir Sie auf individuelle und persönliche Art und Weise darüber informieren werden, um einzelne Projekte und Pläne zu besprechen. Dementsprechend besteht zu diesem Zeitpunkt kein Anlass dazu, weitere Aktualisierungen anzufordern. Ihr Projektmanager oder geschäftlicher Kontaktpartner wird sich bei Bedarf mit Ihnen direkt in Verbindung setzen.

    Wir betonen, dass wir alle bestrebt sind, alles Erforderliche zu tun, um die Auswirkungen dieser Situation auf Ihre Projekte möglichst gering zu halten.

    Eine Zusammenfassung aller Maßnahmen, die unsere Teams bereits zum Schutz unserer Mitarbeiter und Partner ergriffen haben, ist diesem Schreiben beigefügt. 

    Ich wünsche Ihnen und Ihren Familien und Kollegen alles Gute sowie eine gute Gesundheit und hoffe aufrichtig, dass sich diese Situation in den kommenden Wochen und Monaten verbessern wird. Unser gesamtes globales Team steht Ihnen jederzeit für weitere Fragen zur Verfügung.

    Mark C Griffiths
    Global CEO
    Dishman Carbogen Amcis


    Bereits ergriffene Massnahmen:

    1. Die Gesundheit unserer Mitarbeitenden, der Schutz unserer Kunden und die Sicherheit der Patienten stehen an erster Stelle
    • Unsere Mitarbeiter erhalten regelmässige Aktualisierungen und klare Richtlinien, insbesondere in Bezug auf Hygieneanforderungen.
    • Wir haben bereits Massnahmen ergriffen, um unsere Mitarbeitende an all unseren verschiedenen Standorten zu schützen, einschliesslich Kontaktbeschränkungen (z.B. Händeschütteln und andere mit Körperkontakt verbundene Formen der Begrüssung usw.), Quarantäne von Personen, die aus Risikogebieten zurückkehren sowie die Installation von Desinfektionsmittelspendern an den Eingängen der Standorte.
    • Erkrankte Mitarbeitende dürfen den Standort nicht betreten. Darüber hinaus müssen Sie die Personalabteilung über ihren Gesundheitszustand informieren.
    • Wir befolgen die Empfehlungen und Anweisungen der lokalen Behörden zur Eindämmung der Virusausbreitung an allen Standorten.
    • Bei externen Besuchern oder Fremdfirmen ist der Gastgeber/interne Ansprechpartner dafür verantwortlich, (im Voraus) zu klären, ob sich die betreffenden Personen selbst in den letzten 14 Tagen in Risikogebieten aufgehalten haben oder mit entsprechenden Personen in Kontakt standen. Bei Verdachtsfällen wird der Besuch verschoben. Dieses Verfahren wird wöchentlich bewertet und kann bei Bedarf angepasst werden.
    • Alle Kundenbesuche wurden abgesagt. 
    1. Eine sichere Lieferkette 

    Nachdem die WHO den Pandemiestatus erklärt hat, gilt die bestehende Situation als höhere Gewalt. Wir bemühen uns, unsere Lieferkettenkanäle so weit wie möglich offen zu halten. Unsere Lieferkette wurde evaluiert und wir sehen derzeit kein kurzfristiges Risiko für Produktausfälle, da ein grosser Teil davon in unsere Unternehmensgruppe integriert ist.

    1. Unnötige Risiken vermeiden
    • All unsere Treffen sollen nun über Telefonkonferenzen durchgeführt werden, um persönliche Versammlungen einzuschränken (z.B. Reisebeschränkung zwischen Standorten, mit Ausnahme von Notfällen).
    • Geschäftsreisen sind nicht gestattet.
    • Alle Mitarbeiter, die dazu in der Lage sind, sollen nun im Home Office arbeiten, um den direkten engen persönlichen Kontakt mit Kollegen zu minimieren. Alle Kollegen, die mit Risikogebieten in Kontakt standen oder bei denen der Verdacht einer Infektion besteht, müssen zu Hause bleiben und sich selbst isolieren.

    Zur allgemeinen Erinnerung: All unsere Mitarbeiter arbeiten auch unter normalen Bedingungen und unabhängig von der Pandemie nach Standardfertigungsverfahren und Qualitätsstandards/SOPs zur Hygiene (Personalhygiene, Bekleidungsvorschriften und Arbeitshygiene), die ein hohes Standardniveau zum Schutz von Menschen und Produkten aufrechterhalten

    Beste klanten en partners,

    Bij de Dishman Carbogen Amcis-bedrijvengroep nemen we de risico's die aan COVID-19 zijn verbonden zeer serieus en hebben we al een reeks maatregelen geïmplementeerd, die zijn bedoeld om het risico voor onze werknemers, klanten en patiënten te beperken. We hebben al een toegewijd team opgericht die de ontwikkelingen rondom de de COVID-19 uitbraak volgt en zijn alle werkprocessen geanalyseerd met betrekking tot de risico's. Dit laat ons toe om al onze activiteiten soepel te laten verlopen en we ondervinden momenteel nog geen impact op onze activiteiten.

    We worden geconfronteerd met een unieke situatie in verschillende landen waar we activiteiten hebben. Nationale overheden implementeren maatregelen en geven advies aan zowel bedrijven als het publiek die van invloed zal zijn op onze organisatie. Desalniettemin willen we u verzekeren dat we, zelfs onder deze omstandigheden, onze activiteiten zullen voortzetten gedurende deze periode van onzekerheid, zolang de veiligheid van onze werknemers is geborgd en conform de richtlijnen van de nationale overheidsvoorschriften.

    We beoordelen de situatie voortdurend om de continuïteit van onze producten aan u te garanderen.

    Om dit te bereiken, evalueren we dagelijks de situatie. Als de dagelijkse situatie gevolgen heeft voor ons werk en indirect gevolgen heeft voor onze verplichtingen aan u, kunt u er zeker van zijn dat we u op een individuele en persoonlijke manier zullen informeren over actuele- en toekomstige leveringen.

    Nogmaals, we doen er alles aan om de impact, die deze situatie zou kunnen hebben, op uw leveringen te beperken.

    Een samenvatting van de maatregelen die onze teams reeds hebben genomen om onze werknemers en partners te beschermen, is aan deze brief toegevoegd.

    Ik wens u en uw families en collega's het allerbeste toe, inclusief een goede gezondheid, en hoop van harte dat deze situatie de komende weken en maanden zal verbeteren. Ons hele wereldwijde team blijft tot uw beschikking voor alle vragen die u misschien zal hebben.

    Mark C Griffiths
    Global CEO
    Dishman Carbogen Amcis


    Reeds geïmplementeerde acties:

    1. De gezondheid van werknemers, de bescherming van klanten en patiëntveiligheid staan voorop
    • Onze werknemers ontvangen regelmatige updates en duidelijke richtlijnen, vooral hygiëne-eisen.
    • We hebben al maatregelen genomen om onze werknemers op al onze verschillende locaties te beschermen, waaronder beperking van contact (bijv. handdrukken en andere vormen van fysieke begroetingen, ...), quarantaine van mensen die terugkomen uit risicovolle gebieden en het installeren van desinfecterende dispensers bij de ingangen van de site.
    • Voor zieke werknemers is het verboden om op de site te komen. Ze moeten HR ook informeren over de toestand van hun gezondheid.
    • We volgen alle aanbevelingen en instructies van de lokale autoriteiten om de verspreiding van het virus op al onze sites te voorkomen.
    • In het geval van externe bezoekers of externe contractanten, is de gastheer/ interne contactpersoon verantwoordelijk voor het (voorafgaand) verduidelijken of de mensen de afgelopen 14 dagen hebben verbleven in of contact hebben gehad met personen uit de crisisgebieden. In het geval van vermodelijke gevallen zal het bezoek worden uitgesteld. Deze procedure wordt wekelijks geëvalueerd en kan worden aangepast indien de situatie dit vereist.
    • Alle klantenbezoeken zijn geännuleerd.
    1. Een veilige toeleveringsketen

    Nu de status van de pandemie door de WHO is vastgesteld, wordt de situatie beschouwd als een situatie van overmacht. We doen er alles aan om onze kanalen van de toeleveringsketen open te houden. Onze toeleveringsketen is beoordeeld en we zien geen kortetermijnrisico op productietekort, omdat een groot deel daarvan geïntegreerd is binnen onze bedrijvengroep.

    1. Vermijd onnodige risico's
    • Al onze vergaderingen moeten worden gehouden via teleconferenties om persoonlijke vergaderingen te beperken (bijv. beperking van reizen tussen sites behalve voor noodsituaties.)
    • Zakenreizen zijn niet toegestaan
    • We gaan over naar kantoorwerk van thuis voor werknemers die in staat zijn om dit te doen om direct persoonlijk contact met collega's te minimaliseren. Alle collega's die in contact komen met het crisisgebied of vermoedelijk zijn besmet, moeten thuis blijven en zichzelf isoleren.

    Ook onder normale omstandigheden buiten de pandemieperioden, werken al onze werknemers volgens standaard fabricageprocedures en voldoen ze aan kwaliteitsnormen/SOP’s. Hierin zijn de maatregelen ten aanzien van de hygiëne, (persoonlijke hygiëne, kledingbeleid en industriële hygiëne) vastgelegd en die een hoog standaard niveau van bescherming borgen voor mensen en producten.

CARBOGEN AMCIS announces major investments of more than CHF 100 million in Switzerland and France

  • We at Dishman Carbogen Amcis group of companies are taking the risks associated with COVID-19 very seriously, and have already implemented a set of measures aimed at limiting any risk to our employees, customers and patients. We have already established a dedicated working team who monitor the COVID-19 outbreak and all processes have been analyzed with regards to risks. This allows us to have all our operations running smoothly and we currently do not have an impact on our operations.

CARBOGEN AMCIS announces major investments of more than CHF 100 million in Switzerland and France

  • English

    BUBENDORF, Switzerland (August 17, 2020) — Switzerland-based CARBOGEN AMCIS, a pharmaceutical process development and Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) and drug products manufacturing company, announced today new expansion plans in Switzerland and France. 

    CARBOGEN AMCIS announces two major expansion projects that will increase manufacturing capacity to better meet the demands of the current market and its customers. The new facilities, located in Switzerland and France, will be phased in over the next four years, totaling investments in excess of CHF 100m (over €90 million). This follows six years of constant growth for the company.

    In Switzerland, the project will be initiated in 2021 with construction of a new API manufacturing facility at its Hunzenschwil site. This project will progress in several phases. It is planned for this new unit to be operational by summer 2024.

    “The facility is designed to provide space for CARBOGEN AMCIS to grow over the next 10 years with the initial phase comprising of 12 new vessels (from 630 liters to 4000 liters) and associated filtration and drying capabilities,” said Stephan Fritschi, vice president of operations. “We have an impressive pipeline, and now our customers can benefit from more diverse offerings.”

    In addition to the new Swiss API manufacturing facility, additional investments are planned with a dedicated budget to improve some of the existing technologies and to increase the capacity of the current Swiss sites, such as adding chromatography equipment, new reactors in production and new laboratories.

    In France, on newly acquired land located 7 km from an existing site in Riom, construction will begin in January 2021 with a new, state-of-the-art facility dedicated to custom development and manufacturing of parenteral drug products. This facility will allow handling complex formulations, including a large range of different types of APIs from biologics to any kind of highly potent compounds.

    “After years of growth, it’s exciting to have reached our current production limits and to be able to expand our facilities and grow our capacity, which will match the future market demand,” said Pascal Villemagne, vice president of sales and marketing. “Our new facility in Riom will not only enable us to support more customers, but will also give them access to innovative fill and finish technologies.”

    The new French site will be able to supply both clinical batches up to phase III and small-scale for commercial. There will be two automated lines: the first one for both liquid filling plus lyophilization and the second one dedicated to liquid forms. In addition, state-of-the-art development and analytical laboratories will be incorporated to support customer projects. Operations will commence during Q1 of 2023.

    “Our objective is ambitious, nevertheless, we are taking a responsible approach to our growth in order to give the company and our employees a sustainable future. As an established leader in the pharmaceutical outsourcing industry for the past 40 years and with strong relationships with our customers, our company is ready to take this next step in capability and capacity. We are embarking on the expansions in order to secure CARBOGEN AMCIS’s position,” said Mark Griffiths, CARBOGEN AMCIS CEO.

    CARBOGEN AMCIS annonce d’importants investissements de plus de 100 millions de francs suisses (plus de 90 millions d’euros) en Suisse et en France

    BUBENDORF, Suisse (le 17. août 2020) - La société suisse CARBOGEN AMCIS, qui développe des procédés pharmaceutiques et fabrique des principes actifs (API) et des médicaments, a annoncé aujourd’hui de nouveaux plans d’expansion en Suisse et en France.

    CARBOGEN AMCIS annonce deux grands projets d’expansion visant à augmenter sa capacité de production pour mieux répondre aux exigences du marché et de ses clients. Ces nouvelles installations, situées en Suisse et en France, seront déployées progressivement au cours des quatre prochaines années. L’investissement total s’élève à plus de 100 millions de francs suisses (plus de 90 millions d’euros). Cette évolution s’inscrit dans le prolongement de six années de croissance constante de l’entreprise.

    Le projet sera lancé pour la Suisse en 2021 avec la construction d’une nouvelle unité de production de principes actifs sur le site de Hunzenschwil. Il se déroulera en plusieurs phases. La nouvelle unité devrait être opérationnelle d’ici l’été 2024.

    « L’installation est conçue pour permettre l’expansion de CARBOGEN AMCIS au cours des dix prochaines années. La phase initiale comprendra 12 nouveaux réacteurs (de 630 litres à 4 000 litres) avec les capacités de filtration et de séchage associées », explique Stephan Fritschi, vice-président opérations. « Notre portefeuille est impressionnant, et nos clients vont désormais bénéficier d’offres plus diversifiées. »

    Outre la nouvelle usine suisse de fabrication de principes actifs, des investissements supplémentaires sont prévus, avec un budget dédié qui permettra d’améliorer certaines technologies existantes et d’augmenter la capacité des sites suisses actuels, comme l’ajout d’équipements de chromatographie, de nouveaux réacteurs en production et de nouveaux laboratoires.

    En France, la construction commencera en janvier 2021 sur un terrain nouvellement acquis situé à 7 km du site actuel de Riom. Il accueillera un nouveau bâtiment ultramoderne dédié au développement et à la fabrication de médicaments à usage parentéral. Celui-ci permettra de traiter des formulations complexes, notamment une large gamme de différents types de principes actifs, allant des produits biologiques à tout type de composés hautement actifs.

    « Après des années de croissance, il est stimulant d’avoir atteint nos limites de production actuelles, de pouvoir nous agrandir et augmenter notre capacité afin de répondre aux demandes futures du marché », commente Pascal Villemagne, vice-président ventes et marketing. « Notre établissement de Riom nous permettra non seulement de soutenir plus de clients, mais il leur donnera aussi accès à des technologies de remplissage et de finition (Fill and Finish) innovantes. » 

    Le nouveau site français sera en mesure de fournir à la fois des lots cliniques jusqu’à la phase III et des lots commerciaux à petite échelle. Deux lignes automatisées y seront déployées : la première pour le remplissage de liquides plus la lyophilisation et la seconde dédiée aux formes liquides. En outre, des laboratoires de recherche et de développement de pointe seront intégrés pour soutenir les projets des clients. Les opérations commenceront au cours du premier trimestre 2023.

    « Notre objectif est certes ambitieux, mais nous adoptons une approche responsable de notre croissance afin de donner à l’entreprise et à nos collaborateurs un avenir durable. En tant que leader établi depuis 40 ans dans le secteur de la sous-traitance pharmaceutique et grâce aux relations solides que nous entretenons avec nos clients, notre entreprise est prête à franchir ce nouveau cap en termes de capacité et de compétences. Nous nous lançons dans ces projets d’expansion afin de sécuriser la position de CARBOGEN AMCIS », souligne Mark Griffiths, PDG de CARBOGEN AMCIS.

    CARBOGEN AMCIS kündigt Investitionen von mehr als 100 Millionen Schweizer Franken (90 Millionen Euro) in der Schweiz und Frankreich an

    BUBENDORF, Schweiz (17. August 2020) – das Schweizer Unternehmen CARBOGEN AMCIS, das pharmazeutische Verfahren entwickelt und aktive pharmazeutische Wirkstoffe (API) und Arzneimittel herstellt, hat heute neue Expansionspläne in der Schweiz und in Frankreich bekanntgegeben.

    CARBOGEN AMCIS kündigt zwei grosse Expansionsvorhaben zur Erhöhung der Produktionskapazitäten an, um den aktuellen Kunden- und Marktanforderungen besser gerecht zu werden. Anknüpfend an das kontinuierliche Unternehmenswachstum der letzten sechs Jahre werden die neuen Anlagen in der Schweiz und in Frankreich in den nächsten vier Jahren schrittweise in die Infrastruktur integriert und umfassen ein Gesamtinvestitionsvolumen von mehr als 100 Millionen Schweizer Franken (über 90 Millionen Euro).

    In der Schweiz wird das Projekt 2021 mit dem Bau einer neuen API-Produktionsanlage am Standort Hunzenschwil in Angriff genommen. Das Projekt umfasst mehrere Phasen. Die neue Niederlassung soll bis Sommer 2024 in Betrieb genommen werden.

    „Das Werk soll CARBOGEN AMCIS in den nächsten 10 Jahren anfänglich mit 12 neuen Reaktoren (von 630 bis 4000 Liter) und den damit verbundenen Filtrations- und Trocknungskapazitäten in seinem Wachstum unterstützen“, so Stephan Fritschi, Vizepräsident Operations. „Wir haben bereits eine beeindruckende Pipeline und können nun unseren Kunden ein noch vielfältigeres Angebot bieten.“

    Zusätzlich zu der neuen Schweizer API-Produktionsanlage sind weitere Investitionen mit einem zweckgebundenen Budget geplant, um einige der bestehenden Technologien zu verbessern und die Kapazität der aktuellen Schweizer Standorte zu steigern. Dazu gehören beispielsweise zusätzliche Chromatographie-Anlagen, neue Reaktoren in der Produktion und Laborausbauten.

    In Frankreich beginnt im Januar 2021 auf einem neu erworbenen Gelände nur 7 km von dem bisherigen Standort in Riom entfernt der Bau einer neuen, hochmodernen Anlage für die kundenspezifische Entwicklung und Herstellung parenteraler Arzneimittel. Dieses Werk ermöglicht die Handhabung komplexer Formulierungen, einschliesslich einer grossen Auswahl an verschiedenen Arten von APIs, von Biologika bis hin zu hochwirksamen Verbindungen jeglicher Art.

    „Nach Jahren des Wachstums ist es aufregend, unsere derzeitigen Produktionsgrenzen erreicht zu haben und nun unsere Anlagen und Kapazitäten erweitern zu können, um der zukünftigen Marktnachfrage zu entsprechen“, sagt Pascal Villemagne, Vizepräsident Vertrieb und Marketing „Mit unserem neuen Werk in Riom können wir nicht nur mehr Kunden erreichen, sondern ihnen auch Zugang zu innovativen Fill-&-Finish-Technologien eröffnen.“

    Der neue französische Standort wird sowohl klinische Chargen bis zur Phase III als auch kleine Chargen für den kommerziellen Einsatz liefern können. Er wird zwei automatisierte Produktionslinien umfassen: die erste für die Abfüllung flüssiger Formen sowie Lyophilisierung und die zweite ausschliesslich für flüssige Formen. Darüber hinaus werden hochmoderne Entwicklungs- und Analyselabore zur Unterstützung von Kundenprojekten eingerichtet. Der Betrieb soll im ersten Quartal 2023 aufgenommen werden.

    „Unser Ziel ist ehrgeizig. Dennoch gehen wir verantwortungsvoll mit unserem Wachstum um, um dem Unternehmen und unseren Mitarbeitenden eine nachhaltige Zukunft zu bieten. Als in der pharmazeutischen Outsourcing-Industrie seit 40 Jahren etablierter Marktführer mit starken Beziehungen zu unseren Kunden ist unser Unternehmen bereit, diesen nächsten Schritt in Bezug auf unser Leistungsportfolio zu gehen. Wir nehmen die Expansion in Angriff, um die Marktposition von CARBOGEN AMCIS zu sichern“, meint Mark Griffiths, CEO von CARBOGEN AMCIS.
