Sartorius Stedim Biotech (SSB) received several large orders for consumables used in biopharmaceutical production from leading global vaccine manufacturers. These items include specialty filters, aseptic single-use bags and other disposables for sterile filtration of pharmaceutical liquids and for storage and transport of intermediate serum products.

The orders are related to A(H1N1) flu vaccine testing and the expected startup of production operations. Governments from many countries have been requesting significant quantities of the vaccine from these producers in an effort to stockpile a sufficient supply. SSB supplies products both for classic, egg-based vaccine production and innovative cell culture-based processes using bioreactors.

“We are carefully tracking the situation and are in close contact with our global customers so we are well prepared,” said Dr. Joachim Kreuzburg, chief executive officer of SSB. “Apart from the current situation we are facing with the outbreak of swine flu, we have long understood the growing importance of the vaccine market and have been developing appropriate products, especially for flexible single-use.”
