Ashland awarded GMP certificate for excipients

by

Ashland, a specialty chemicals supplier, has been awarded an Excipact Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) certificate for its pharmaceutical excipients

The certificate demonstrates that the company’s Aquarius plant site in Wilmington, Delaware manufactures pharmaceutical excipients according to the Excipact GMP certification standard.

It covers the manufacturing, testing and packaging of pharmaceutical excipients used as film coatings in pharmaceutical industry.

EU and US pharmaceutical regulations now require drug manufacturers to conduct either their own or commission third party physical audits of all their starting material suppliers.

Using GMP standards designed for excipients, the new third party Excipact certification scheme is helping excipient users and suppliers meet GMP standards, according to Excipact.
