Düsseldorf/Ohio, March 23, 2022. Gerresheimer ceremoniously took over a new building in Berlin, Ohio. In the future, the square plastic containers of the Duma Twist-Off Q brand with a 40-ml filling volume, child-resistant closure, and desiccant for filling with medications for the North American market will be produced here in a clean room. The new building is Gerresheimer's eighth location in total on American soil and is being built directly next to Gerresheimer's prescription packaging production facility. A major customer of the company has now audited the site for its orders.
"Many companies around the world produce bottles and closures from plastic. However, very few of them are produced in controlled areas and even fewer in classified cleanrooms like those at Gerresheimer. This is because it is the only way Gerresheimer can guarantee and ensure the quality and purity of the container solution used to package medicines. This is what Gerresheimer offers at each of its primary production sites for plastic packaging around the world. This project is a great example of successful knowledge sharing between the teams in the US and Denmark," said Niels Düring, Global Executive Vice President Plastic Packaging, who cut the blue ribbon at the dedication ceremony.
