Scorpius Holdings Announces Major Expansion in San Antonio with New State-of-the-Art Storage and Testing Facility
May 20 2024 - 8:00AM
Scorpius Holdings, Inc (NYSE
American: SCPX), an integrated contract
development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), today announced
a significant expansion of its operational footprint in San
Antonio, Texas, with the opening of its new, state-of-the-art
storage and testing facility.
This expansion increases Scorpius' warehouse facilities more
than sevenfold, from ~3,000 square feet to ~22,000 square feet. The
upgrade is in response to the growing demand for Scorpius'
biomanufacturing services and the need to accommodate its expanding
client base.
The new facility is designed to meet or exceed industry
standards with appropriate storage, continuity, and security
controls for biopharmaceutical materials. It will feature
specialized storage areas with temperatures maintained between
-20°C and -80°C for raw materials, alongside spaces designated for
contained sampling and quality control testing. Additionally, it
will accommodate bulk drug substance storage, ensuring clients'
products are stored under optimal conditions throughout the
development and production cycles.
Notably, the facility will include a robust stability program.
This program will bolster Scorpius' service offerings by providing
in-house stability storage capabilities to foster a smooth
transition into onsite testing. Not only does this add a new
dimension to the Company's capabilities, but it also introduces an
additional revenue stream, further solidifying Scorpius' position
in the market.
Jeff Wolf, CEO of Scorpius Holdings, commented, "These new
capabilities enable us to offer our clients continuity through
their supply chain and meet their needs from process development
through drug substance release. This strategic expansion reflects
our commitment to excellence and our dedication to supporting our
clients’ overall needs."
