ACG Inspection opens European Centre of Excellence

The world’s only integrated pharmaceutical manufacturing and packaging solutions company ACG is to open a new ‘Centre of Excellence’ as part of its global expansion.

As part of its ACG Inspection division, the office will be the headquarters for logistics, development, data, service support, FAT and project management for the company’s presence in Europe.

ACG Inspection celebrated the launch of its ‘Centre of Excellence’ in Yverdon, Switzerland by holding a three-day event, inviting customers and media to visit the facility.

At the event, ACG Inspection showcased a range of live demos for technologies including brand protection, geo-location identification, process analytical technology (PAT), industrial internet of things (IIoT) and more.

Commenting on the launch of the ‘Centre of Excellence’, Mr. Ettore Cucchetti, CEO, ACG Inspection, said: “Our team’s focus is centred around better understanding of customer challenges. Our new ‘Centre of Excellence’ will allow the team to create adaptive solutions in response to customer needs and requirements – helping to make them future-ready.”  

The company is planning to move in new business and assembly premises for Europe at the centre by the end of 2020.

Mr. Philippe Leuba, state councillor in charge of the Department of Economy, Innovation and Sport, added: "The arrival of ACG Inspection SA adds to the Health Valley, which already has nearly 400 businesses and a total of about 20,000 jobs. Beyond these figures, investments in pharmaceuticals lead to the provision of new treatments for the patient.”
