Vetter Investment Will Enhance Strategic Partnership

RAVENSBURG, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A groundbreaking ceremony was held today for Vetter’s newest facility, Ravensburg Vetter West. Vetter, a specialist in aseptically pre-filled drug-delivery systems, will build a state-of-the-art high bay warehouse for cold-storage and room-temperature goods. Space will also be dedicated for automatic and manual visual inspection as well as for stability chambers designed to the highest standards. The new facility will allow the company to optimize both its control and logistical processes, which will enable safe and expeditious product delivery to customers.

The first construction phase, scheduled for completion by the end of 2011, is estimated to cost more than 30 million Euros.
