In July, the western states of Rhineland-Palatinate and North Rhine-Westphalia in Germany experienced devastating floods caused by days of extreme rainfall. Our Eschweiler and Stolberg production sites and Kiefernweg Campus were not directly impacted; however, the communities were heavily affected. While we are thankful that none of our team members were injured, we empathize with many of them who are dealing with damage to their homes and personal property, as well as trauma caused by such a devastating event.
There is huge solidarity amongst the people who live and work in the area. Every hand is needed to help with clean-up activities organized in the area. West team members were eager to support the efforts, and many of them have given their time to help colleagues with personal property damages and the wider community by cleaning up homes and public spaces such as playgrounds for children.
West has provided the following financial support for our team members and their local communities:
Our One West Team commitment to putting people first is a defining feature of West. This was evidenced by our team members’ drive and resolution to assist their colleagues and the local community at such a challenging time for everyone in the area.

On January 1, 2018, new USP standards became mandatory for measuring elemental impurities in pharmaceuticals and their ingredients – aligning with ICH Q3D, which provides limits for the amount of elemental impurities in drug products. New USP General Chapters, USP <232> (<em>Elemental Impurities – Limits</em>) and USP <233> (<em>Elemental Impurities – Procedures</em>) have replaced USP <231> (<em>Heavy Metals</em>). USP <231>, which historically was used to test for heavy metals in drug products as well as packaging components, has been withdrawn. However, the heavy metals testing in USP <381> (<em>Elastomeric Closure for Injections</em>), which is used for testing of elastomeric closures, still references USP <231>.
