PA-ABEC

ABEC , a global provider of engineered solutions and services for biotech manufacturing, today announced the completion of an expansion of its Fermoy, Ireland cleanroom for single-use disposable container (DC) manufacturing. The expansion increases total floorspace in Fermoy to 9,500 square feet and includes state-of-the-art automated manufacturing equipment. The expansion is fully operational and comes at a pivotal time for the biopharmaceutical industry as many customers cite lead times of a year or more from other suppliers.

The COVID-19 pandemic heightened the already growing demand for single-use manufacturing capacity, leaving many suppliers unable to meet delivery needs. In contrast, ABEC’s DC delivery schedules have remained constant. ABEC attributes its foresight for increased capacity to its long-term commitment to understanding and acting on critical industry trends that best support customers’ future needs. ABEC currently supplies DCs globally from its Fermoy facility and from another ISO-7 cleanroom in Bethlehem, PA USA. The Fermoy expansion exceeds current needed capacity, enabling ABEC to continue offering customers the fastest DC lead times in the industry. Despite unprecedented supply-chain shortages caused by COVID-19, ABEC has remained steadfast in its ability to provide reliable delivery timelines to support the large-scale, single-use manufacturing of vaccines and therapeutic proteins.

“ABEC’s philosophy is unique in the industry because we have always strategically invested in capacity ahead of demand, supporting the long-term growth of the biopharmaceutical industry,” said Scott Pickering, ABEC CEO and Chairman. “Our expansion in Fermoy further assures supply for current and future CSR customers.”
