Contract manufacturing
The entire value stream is controlled within AMW, from logistics to manufacturing and shipping. AMW has many years of expertise in implant manufacturing using extrusion technology in a GMP-regulated environment. In melt extrusion, conical twin-screw extruders are used to mix active ingredient molecules with polymers. The focus is on the state-of-the-art in melt extrusion as well as the hygienic requirements according to Annex 1 of the EU-GMP guidelines.
Primary packaging is in syringes/applicators. The packing area allows us to pack a wide variety of formats while complying with serialization and track trace (including aggregation) specifications. AMW attaches great importance to a sustainable quality assurance process that begins with the selection of suppliers and extends through incoming goods inspection of the raw materials, packaging materials, in-process control, and the release of the finished goods for shipment or the market at the end of the production chain.
Our employees with their many years of experience in the GMP-regulated environment lay the groundwork for these processes.
