SGS Life Science Services has been awarded cGMP accreditation for its new analytical lab at its Livorno, Italy facility.
Its first in Italy, the new lab will focus on analytical quality control testing, IT compliance and validation. The Livorno site also provides facilities qualification, calibration and validation services, and has an analytical chemistry lab that opened in 2013.
The 1085m² lab employs 25 staff and is ISO 9001 accredited. The cGMP accreditation enables the Livorno GMP lab to demonstrate whether or not individual batches of raw materials, or regulated product, are manufactured according to the highest quality standards.
“The investment in the new laboratory and its cGMP accreditation adds significantly to our existing offer and will enable us to conveniently serve the microbiological and chemical testing needs of our clients in the important Italian market, where many multinational pharmaceutical firms and API manufacturers are located,” said Marco Benvenuti, business manager, SGS Life Science Services.
