Zenith Technologies and GE Healthcare Life Sciences to Collaborate on Biopharmaceutical Manufacturing Deployment

Zenith Technologies and GE Healthcare’s Life Sciences business will collaborate on biopharmaceutical manufacturing deployment, according to an April 4, 2016 press announcement.

According to the press announcement, as part of the partnership, Zenith Technologies’ methodologies, systems, and libraries will be offered as a service to GE Healthcare’s clients in bioprocessing. The two companies will integrate process control systems, manufacturing execution system (MES) solutions, and other supporting technologies with GE Healthcare’s technologies and solutions for the biopharmaceutical manufacturing industry.

"The development of our KUBio modular manufacturing facilities and FlexFactory single-use manufacturing platform was fuelled by the need for customers to deploy biopharmaceutical manufacturing capacity more quickly and at a lower cost,” said Jan Makela, general manager at BioProcess GE Healthcare in a statement. “Implementing these advanced technology platforms requires automation expertise for which we partner with a number of world class companies.”
