MilliporeSigma plans to build a $115 million campus in Burlington, MA that will serve as a hub for the North American life science business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany. The 280,000-sq.-ft. facility will include a customer collaboration lab and training center as well as office space.

The campus will house both a customer service and call center and an M Lab Collaboration Center—a shared environment where the company works with customers. The M Lab Collaboration Center will be one of nine centers worldwide created specifically for collaboration with hands-on training, customer experiments and troubleshooting in a non-GMP environment. Other locations will include Brazil, China, France, India, Singapore and South Korea.

MilliporeSigma’s 850 Billerica-based employees will relocate to the new campus when construction is complete in 2H17. The building will be LEED certified and the project includes an opportunity to expand an additional 70,000 sq.-ft.  

“This new and more expansive MilliporeSigma campus gives us a unique, multi-use life science hub in the United States—one that provides our employees and customers with a sustainable and collaborative working environment,” said Udit Batra chief executive officer of MilliporeSigma. “We have a long history in the Commonwealth, and as a global leader in life science, we are committed to strengthening our presence in one of the most important science and technology hubs in the world.”
