In the latest installment of our video series, West on the Road, we travel across the Atlantic to our manufacturing facility in Eschweiler, Germany. There we meet Manager of Process Engineering Martin Rothstein, who says he’s impressed at how often he has encountered West products in his private life, whether visiting a family member in the hospital or during a vaccination appointment for one of his two small children.
Rothstein and the teams at the Eschweiler facility produce high-value pharmaceutical packaging products, turning materials into high-quality elastomeric stoppers, plungers and other components for the biotech and pharmaceutical industries. With the biopharmaceutical industry experiencing a shift toward patient-centered, quality care, it is increasingly important to maintain strict manufacturing processes to decrease risk. With this in mind, Rothstein explains that for many customers, it’s important to work with a provider such as West that manufacturers all of the various packaging components for a drug product under one roof, ensuring minimal risk.
The teams at Eschweiler have a long history of providing high-quality components; they possess a deep knowledge of the production process and are able to provide the right support to the customers to help them improve patient care around the world. Check out this new video to learn more about the work being done at West’s Eschweiler facility and visit our Careers page to learn more bout working at West in Germany.
West works by the side of our health care partners to understand patient needs and provide integrated delivery systems that optimize the effectiveness of drug delivery while enhancing the patient experience. Creative business models will ensure effective collaboration, either by leveraging West’s proprietary technologies or partnering with individual customers through the development process to apply West’s design, engineering and manufacturing skills to create customer-specific solutions.
As the need for higher quality drug delivery and packaging components increases, customers are challenged to meet new standards and comply with additional regulatory requirements. To help our pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical partners meet these challenges and reduce risk, West has developed next-generation quality for ready-to-sterilize and ready-to-use components. <br />
We are very pleased to announce that two of our sites in Asia Pacific have received two additional safety accreditations recently, which further demonstrates and acknowledges our team’s continuous commitment to health, safety, and environment throughout West and the industry.
China has now stepped into its “golden age” of biopharma; this year regulators approved the country’s first biosimilar product, HLX01. Developed by Shanghai Henlius Biotech, it will be used primarily for treatment of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma<span>. Biologics are sensitive large molecules, so selecting the appropriate packaging and delivery system is critical. To this end, West Pharmaceutical Services, Inc. (“West”) recently held <em>China BioPharma Summit for Injectable Drug Packaging and Delivery Systems</em> in Suzhou. Over 200 persons attended.</span>
To support customers as they navigate the path from drug product discovery to commercialization, West has undertaken a new, proactive strategy: <em>Integrated Solutions.</em> For almost 100 years, West has been developing technical and regulatory expertise in primary drug packaging, delivery devices, and combination products. That wealth of industry experience is now offered to customers who can employ it for any stage of development (Prescreen and Compatibility, Clinical Phases I / II / III, and Lifecycle Management).
