Features:
The investment features construction of a new fermentation line with a volume of 1,500 liters and setting up of new cleanroom structures in the 270-liter fermentation line at the biotech site in Amsterdam. In addition, the existing clean rooms are successively re-equipped and renovated with state-of-the-art equipment.
