FAREVA is taking over the former MSD site of La Vallée in Saint-Germain-Laprade in France, adding a fourth site to its API network.
La Vallée has been operating for 30 years, manufacturing complex APIs with a team of 130 employees. It has installations in production, quality control and environmental systems, with a total reactor capacity of 128,000 liters in large and small scale workshops, nearly doubling FAREVA’s API capacity from its existing facilities in Feucht, Germany, Val de Reuil, France and Romainville, France.
FAREVA plans to further capabilities at the site by investing approximately €25 million into an OEB 4 high-containment facility. Two separated compartments with 4,000 liter reactors and high-containment dryers will be operational mid-2017. Also, a hastelloy flow train for cryogenic chemistry at 2 to 10 cubic meter scale is also under development.
