Escientia operates a truly state-of-the-art cGMP manufacturing facility at Vishakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh. It is a multipurpose facility ideally suited for NCE CDMO requirements and operates to OEL levels of less than 0.1microgram/m³. Starting from a Kilo Lab, Pilot Plant, and then three different scale commercial-scale production suites enable us to operate at kilo scale to ton scale. Moreover, the DCS system controls operating parameters within defined ranges to ensure robust and high quality manufacturing operations.
The facility is supported by a team of scientists and process engineers to ensure robust technology absorption and transfer into production. We have a very experienced technical team which delivers quality and productivity while ensuring process safety and an utmost care for the environment.
This facility has a state of art quality control department equipped with all modern analytical equipment controlled by 21 CFR part 11 software i.e. Chromeleon, Empower, and LC solution.
The manufacturing facility can carry out a wide range of chemical reactions which make it ideally suited for longer and complex NCE synthetic routes.
Furthermore it has been designed to withstand natural calamities like cyclones and earthquakes. It has a well designed fire hydrant system with a water sprinkler system. The facility has an alcohol resistant film forming foam system at the solvent tank farm.
Gas cylinders, acids, bases, catalysts, carbon, packaging materials, bulk solvents and drums. Finished goods and raw materials are stored according to their temperature requirements in areas NMT 25°C, 2-8°C, and -20 °C. Sampling and dispensing is carried out under reverse laminar air flow (RLAF) booths.
