akp were thrilled to be awarded the Extension of AMRI’s facility in Glasgow. AMRI provide formulation development and lyophilisation process development expertise as well as GMP manufacturing.

This single site location helps enable customers to progress from pre-formulation through the key development milestone, “Proof of Concept”, without incurring time delays, loss of product knowledge, multiple CMO audits or technical transfer costs at the early stages of clinical development. During the past year alone, the Glasgow site has worked with over fifty unique customers with around 60% of sales coming from Europe.

The existing premises became insufficient for the clients’ purposes due to the expanding size of their operation, together with the securing of a new customer that resulted in the requirement for an extension and provision of a dedicated warehouse and distribution area, and akp were tasked with this.

The works involved a new warehouse extension to the South Elevation including extending the car park, an external storage area, an internal chiller storage facility and a small office space.
