Catalent Completes Purchase of Teva-Takeda Packaging Facility

Catalent has completed the purchase of Teva-Takeda Pharmaceuticals’ packaging facility in Minakuchi, Japan.

Operating in partnership with the company’s existing Japanese clinical supply facility located in Kakegawa, the new 60,000-square-foot facility will provide flexible clinical supply solutions, serving both local customers, and global biotech and pharmaceutical companies. The facility will play an important role in Catalent’s expanding Asia-Pacific network, working alongside two sites in China and one in Singapore to ensure customers’ clinical trials are well-served across the region.

The facility will offer extensive clinical supply services including access to Catalent’s FastChain demand-led supply services, primary and secondary packaging capabilities, a range of temperature options for storage and distribution, as well as clinical returns and destruction services.
