TEVA Pharmaceuticals

TEVA Pharmaceuticals, USA awarded EI a design/build project for a lab expansion, new liquid production facility, and filling and packaging lines at their Sellersville, PA plant. The project is the latest stage of TEVA’s expansion program, which began seven years ago as a facilities master plan completed by EI.

This project consists of: a large Quality Control Laboratory; demolition of existing warehouse/ storage areas for the installation of a new liquid pharmaceutical production facility, liquid filling and packaging lines installation, controlled storage area, and a bulk materials tank farm with piping to a new dispensing room addition. Innovative conservation of space was achieved with the construction of a mezzanine area over the filling area to provide room for mechanical equipment and storage, complete with a freight elevator.

The new liquid production suites required the alteration of all process piping, new electrical service, and a new HVAC system complete with HEPA dust filtration systems to maintain proper conditions in the production areas.
