Promega builds plant to produce regulated products
Including sample preparation systems and reagents
The 260,000ft2 (24,150m2) facility will require an additional 100 people in the next five years. Most of the building will be dedicated to fixed and flexible manufacturing areas. It will also house a customer experience centre for training, laboratory demonstrations and conferences.
‘This building is our next step in expanding our product supply capabilities worldwide,’ said ceo Bill Linton.
