Sartorius Stedim Biotech (SSB; Aubagne, France) has signed a contract to acquire the majority stake in the privately owned start-up AllPure Technologies LLC (New Oxford, PA, USA). AllPure Technologies designs, manufactures, and markets innovative aseptic sampling and tube sealing systems for biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical drug developers and manufacturers; it has been on the market for 4 years, and in 2013 earned revenue of around USD 3 million, with 25 employees. SSB, dedicated to a philosophy of “turning science into solutions,” is a leading global R&D company and provider of cutting-edge equipment, products, and services for the pharmaceutical and biotech industries; it employs approx. 3,300 people, and in 2013 earned sales revenue of EUR 588.4 million.
The takeover extends SSB's portfolio for single-use bioprocessing as AllPure specializes in innovative single-use components for biopharmaceutical applications, such as aseptic sampling techniques.
