The second project consists of a 20,000 m2 four-story building for production of parenterals in small and large volume formats, including two lines for manufacturing BFS bottles with two reactors of 20,000 litres each, a line for manufacturing glass bottles, one for bags, two for vials, two for preloaded syringes, one for lyophilized vials with two freeze-dryers and one topical aerosol production line.
