Almac is delighted to announce a collaboration agreement with DSM Pharmaceutical Products, the custom manufacturing and technology business of Royal DSM, in the field of biocatalysis to provide sustainable manufacturing services to the pharmaceutical industry.

The agreement grants both parties access to their enzyme platform technologies, services and expertise for the manufacturing of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Almac's expertise in rapid enzyme identification, scale-up and implementation into early phase projects complements DSM's experience and track record of over 30 commercial manufacturing bioprocesses run on a multi-ton scale. This will give customers of either party access to enzyme expertise and assets resulting in cost-effective, green processing at all phases of development from preclinical to commercial manufacturing scale. This collaboration will also enable Almac to offer its customers a preferred partner for large-scale production.
