Avantor acquisition boosts cGMP portfolio

Avantor Performance Materials has announced its acquisition of Puritan Products, a supplier of cGMP buffers and solutions for biopharma and high-purity chemistries for research and electronic materials customers.

Integration of Puritan into Avantor will begin immediately, allowing customers access to J.T.Baker, Macron Fine Chemicals and Puritan brand products.

“The addition of Puritan is a key next step in our growth plans, as it provides access to new customers in the US and Europe, a broader portfolio of high-purity products for the biopharma, research and electronic materials industries, and access to additional capabilities, including new cGMP operations and talented new colleagues,” confirmed Michael Stubblefield, CEO of Avantor. “The addition of Puritan’s operations, equipment and sourcing of raw materials offer our customers and additional layer of supply chain security, a key element of the Avantor value proposition.”
