Aphena Acquires Konsyl Pharma Facility in Easton, MD

Aphena Pharma Services Inc. has acquired an additional 54,000-sq.-ft. facility adjoining its current 110,000-sq.-ft. facility in Easton, MD. Aphena bought the property from Konsyl Pharmaceuticals after Konsyl decided to devest the facility.

Building renovations and the installation of new equipment are underway, with an estimated completion date of October 2020. Aphena currently employs 150 full-time workers and plans to add an additional 100 jobs at this location over the next two years. The acquisition and planned renovations represent a $12.5 million investment in the Easton facility over the past 12 months.

"This new facility will allow Aphena to own 27 acres, establishing a long-term pharmaceutical campus for all future growth needs," said Eric Allen, executive vice president of sales and marketing at Aphena. "And, since it was formerly a pharmaceutical facility, it’s a perfect fit for us with blending and packaging suites all supported by a large, climate-controlled warehouse."

Aphena Pharma Services provides contract packaging and manufacturing services for the pharmaceutical, consumer health and medical device markets. From two separate FDA- and DEA-registered sites in the U.S., Aphena handles solid dose, liquids, gels, creams, ointments, foams, suspensions and lotions.
