Alcami expands pharma cold storage in North Carolina

July 26, 2024
The new 65,000-sq.-ft. facility in Garner, near the Research Triangle biotech and pharma hub, now offers customizable, long-term storage for temperature-sensitive vaccines and more.

Alcami Corporation recently expanded the cold, stability, and custom storage options at its new 65,000-sq.-ft. pharma storage facility in Garner, North Carolina.

The “state-of-the-art” facility is in a “prime” location near the Research Triangle Park (RTP) biotech and pharma hub, which offers diverse, customizable, scalable, and long-term storage conditions for temperature-sensitive vaccines, biopharma therapies, cell banks, tissues, pharmaceutical compounds, raw materials, components and medical devices, the company reported.

“Alcami’s new facility is well positioned to fill previously unmet market demand,” Laurent Boer, Alcami Pharma Storage and Services president, said in a news release. “The pipeline of complex medicines—exactly the type of ground-breaking products that life science companies in RTP work on—is only increasing. The biopharmaceutical materials and products in these drugs require very specific warehouse conditions that this new facility provides. But what truly sets us apart as a CDMO is our ability to offer a comprehensive pharma storage network paired with seamless access to our integrated laboratory and manufacturing services.

“From development to delivery, Alcami has the capabilities to care for and secure product within our own network, reducing risk and streamlining efficiency.”

After opening in January with controlled/ambient storage, the facility can now accept shipments for an extensive range of storage conditions, including stability chamber storage, refrigerated storage, freezer, ultra-low freezer, and cryogenic storage (LN2), as well as custom conditions. In addition, the site now offers a full suite of materials management and support services that facilitate the full product development, storage, and commercialization journey, including onsite aliquoting/sampling in grade C sampling booths, refrigerated transport, labeling, cycle counting/inventory management, custom kitting, and reference standards management.

The new central North Carolina facility adjacent to the Research Triangle Park expands Alcami’s secure GMP storage network to six U.S. locations across the Northeast, Southeast, and West Coast. Alcami’s network covers a wide range of GMP temperature storage conditions, from minus 135 degrees Celsius to 70 degrees C, including all ICH stability conditions.
