The Brief
Cobra Biologics, a Swedish CDMO based in both the UK and Sweden, focused on the development and manufacture of clinical trials and ATMP products, and well known for the manufacture of pDNA and similar challenging bio-molecular specialist products. Feasibility/concept design for retrofit of existing facilities for significant improvements and increase in production throughput and potential for product transfer between facilities.
The Process
Facilities Integration teamed with BPE Design and Support to provide costed facility assessment and design and process engineering support to Cobra’s in-house team in the development of optional paths to meet the brief requirements.
Result
The project, carried out during 2016-2017, provided Cobra with a masterplan and enabled the capacity to make balanced judgements for their facilities in Sweden and the UK.
