    Aenova Expands Sterile Production Capacity

    Increases output capabilities to 100 million ampoules and vials at Gronau site.

    Tim Wright, Editor, Contract Pharma03.26.21
    At its Gronau site in Germany, Aenova, a development service provider and contract manufacturer for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, has increased its ampoule capacities. With the new ampoule filling and closing line, the sixth sterile line at the Gronau site, a new fully automatic optical control line and a new packaging line, a total of more than 100 million ampoules and vials can now be produced per year. Aenova's strategy is aimed at significantly expanding capacity and optimizing supply availability at several of the Group's sites.
     
    In aseptic manufacturing, safety and hygiene are paramount for product purity and process reliability. The new plant in Gronau is a so-called RABS plant (Restricted Access Barrier System) for the filling of 1ml to 5ml ampoules and offers high safety for products and personnel while at the same time providing high flexibility. In a RABS (Restricted Access Barrier System), the production area and the operating environment are physically separated. The production area provides a highly clean working environment through a special machine housing, securely locked doors, and glove intervention.
     
    The high-performance filling line is supplemented by a new fully automatic optical inspection line and an additional packaging line including labeling and bundling machine to meet capacity requirements throughout the process. In liquid sterile production, the inspection of containers is particularly time-consuming and resource intensive. The new optical inspection machine with camera technology primarily checks for particles and leakage, so-called black burners, head geometry and correct crimping, color and closure of the crimp cap, color of the solution, as well as code rings and OPC points—one point cut for an easy-to-handle predetermined breaking point on the ampoule. It features high speed and can control both aqueous and oil-based ampoules and vials. Throughput times can thus be significantly reduced while simultaneously increasing capacity by around 7%. With this machine network, Aenova will be able to produce over 100 million ampoules and vials per year in Gronau.
     
    "Our site is a center of excellence for sterile production and conventional solids within the Ae-nova Group and can point to more than 100 years of experience in pharmaceutical production This innovation is an important milestone in being able to meet customer needs even better," said Emil Wolf, managing director at Aenova in Gronau.
     
    These new facilities are also an essential component of Aenova's strategy to further develop the company's position as a scalable end-to-end contract service provider for pharmaceutical and healthcare companies. This includes capacity expansions in tablet production at the Tittmoning site for the production of very large volumes and at the Regensburg site for the production of highly potent active ingredients (up to OEB 5), as well as an additional line for aseptic filling at the Italian site in Latina. COVID-19 vaccines can then also be filled there.
     
    Jan Kengelbach, CEO of the Aenova Group, said, "These investments are a major step for Aenova to be able to serve our customers' requirements even more reliably with the highest quality and very good delivery reliability.”
