Colorcon receives Excipact certification for pharmaceuticals
Colorcon Asia Private Limited site has recently been awarded an Excipact Certificate from SGS Belgium, one of Excipact’s certification bodies
The Certificate demonstrates that the Colorcon Asia Private Limited site in Goa, India, manufactures pharmaceutical excipients according to the Excipact good manufacturing practice (GMP) certification standard.
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.
Both SGS Belgiumand their auditors had to undergo a rigorous assessment process in order to be EXCiPACT Registered.
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.
