Catalent Pharma Solutions has completed a $5.5-million-expansion program at its 200,000-sq.-ft. site in Philadelphia, PA, to provide additional clinical packaging and storage capacity. The facility is one of the largest sites in Catalent’s global clinical supply network, the company reported in an April 12, 2018 announcement.
The investment adds 40% more pallet space for refrigerated and ambient clinical storage, additional cold chain packaging areas, and a clinical label control area. The building also features a campus-wide environmental monitoring and building management system.
“The expansion not only allows us to meet the demand for additional capacity to serve large-scale clinical studies today, but also provides the space necessary for future growth,” said Albert Quintero, general manager, Clinical Supply Services.
