Billerica, MA, May 24, 2022 – Entegris, Inc. (NASDAQ: ENTG), a world-class supplier of advanced materials and process solutions for high-technology industries, today announced at INTERPHEX 2022 the opening of its new Life Sciences Technology Center. Conference attendees can learn about mission-critical solutions for the manufacturing ecosystem being developed at the new Technology Center at booth #3321. The event takes place at the Javits Center in New York City from May 24 – 26, 2022. Ross Acucena, applications director for Life Sciences at Entegris, will also deliver a keynote focused on fresh challenges emanating from emerging therapies on May 25, at 10:15 AM at the Innovation Stage, booth 1281.
Entegris’ new Life Sciences Technology Center, located in Billerica, MA, offers life sciences customers the opportunity to leverage Entegris’ expertise on cold-chain supply challenges to optimize processes, reduce costs and increase speed-to-market. The world-class laboratory brings Entegris’ tools and technologies together in one place, where customers can test equipment for freeze and thaw processes to determine which products best fit their needs.
“Maintaining product quality, process robustness, reliability and safety is critical for any pharmaceutical product, but novel treatments such as mRNA, gene and cell therapies often require a more intensive approach to their preparation, storage and shipping,” said John Lynch, vice president of Life Sciences at Entegris. “Building on the success of our Aramus™ bag assembles and support in COVID-19 vaccine delivery, we have opened the Entegris Life Sciences Technology Center as part of our commitment to enable biopharmaceutical companies to have the technologies and processes in place to provide life-sustaining and life-improving innovations for people around the world, now and in the future."
As part of its solutions for manufacturing challenges, Entegris’ is now offering Aramus Shaped 2D single-use bags with custom shapes, sizes and assembly configuations for customers’ space and function requirements. They are designed to be resistant to extreme cold temperatures and to withstand gamma sterilization, which makes them a preferred solution for freezing, transporting, storing, and thawing drug substances, like COVID-19 vaccines, cell therapies and gene therapies.
Entegris’ Life Sciences team has developed a broad component ecosystem that can be configured to manage the most demanding process needs, and which may deliver significant benefits, including:
- reduction in total cost of ownership
- reduction in risk of product loss
- ease and speed of implementation
- solution freeze/thaw control and consistency
