PCI Announces Intent to Acquire Australia-based PPP

Outsourcing services provider seeks Asia-Pacific growth via planned acquisition of clinical services provider Pharmaceutical Packaging Professionals.

Pharmaceutical outsourcing services provider PCI Pharma Services (PCI) announced its intent to acquire Australia-based Pharmaceutical Packaging Professionals (PPP).  PPP provides clinical trial manufacturing, packaging, storage and distribution services, and establishes a presence for PCI in Australia, viewed as pivotal to continued growth and expansion in the Asia-Pacific region. 

PCI notes that Australia is one of the leading countries for Phase 1 studies globally, and with this acquisition, PPP’s Phase I offering enables PCI to better support customers from early phases of clinical development through to commercial launch.

Located in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, PPP is a leader in clinical trial supply with a suite of support services including early clinical phase sterile and non-sterile drug manufacture of investigational medicines, packaging and labeling services for investigational products, as well as logistical services including storage and distribution to global investigational sites. 

PPP supports projects across a range of temperature conditions including controlled room temperature, 2°-8˚C, -20˚C, and -80˚C environments, which expands PCI’s existing capabilities in storing, packaging, and shipping cold chain products. PPP is currently undertaking a facility expansion and upgrade to add additional storage and distribution services, labeling and packaging rooms, Grade D manufacturing, as well as sterile-fill manufacturing capabilities for Phase II clinical studies.
