The new product line will utilize G-Con Manufacturing’s novel modular, mobile clean-room pods and SSB’s broad single-use and reusable product portfolio to create a totally integrated production process platform.
SSB has incorporated its products into unit operations for media/buffer preparation, seed fermentation, cell cultivation and harvesting, ultra-diafiltration, membrane chromatography and viral clearance for biopharmaceutical development and manufacturing, the company said.
G-Con’s modular containment units are available through SSB’s Integrated Solutions unit and will be launched globally in early 2012.
SSB Bioprocess Solutions marketing senior vice president Maik Jornitz said the combined product portfolio will fundamentally change the way biopharmaceutical manufacturing processes will be designed and configured.
"Our Integrated Solutions unit will implement G-Con’s platform of modular clean-room systems into their designs. In addition, our teams will benefit from G-Con’s engineering and design expertise," Jornitz added.
