The expansion has already commenced and will result in an increase of nearly 32,000ft² of new packaging capacity within the second floor of Vetter’s existing secondary packaging (VSP) facility.
Vetter production and engineering senior vice-president Bernd Stauss said: “Often we hear from customers that a high level of expertise in the assembly and packaging of pens, auto-injectors and safety devices is critical for their success.
“Vetter has this experience and can offer a one-stop solution, from development to filling to secondary packaging, including serialisation of products; a service that is greatly appreciated by our customers.”
After the completion of the project, which is expected to be done over the next several years, the facility will feature new fully automated packaging lines, areas for manual and semi-automated packaging processes, as well as assembly equipment for multiple formats.
