Manufacturing

 

Bavarian Nordic operates its own commercial-scale manufacturing facilities in Kvistgaard, Denmark and  Bern, Switzerland enabling Bavarian Nordic to manufacture, analyze, and release sterile vaccines for human use in compliance with full EU cGMP requirements.

The facilities are currently being expanded to include a commercial-scale, multi-product fill-and-finish unit for liquid and freeze-dried live viral vaccines. This includes formulation, filling, freeze-drying, terminal sterilization of WFI (used as a solvent for freeze-dried products), inspection, and packaging.

In addition, a new  is being added, which will significantly increase the capacity and flexibility of the existing multi-purpose manufacturing facility by allowing multiple products to be manufactured in parallel.

The construction of the new fill-and-finish facility and cleanroom suite will significantly reduce Bavarian Nordic’s dependency on third-party contract manufacturing, thereby establishing the company as one of the world’s only independent manufacturers of live virus vaccines with the capability to produce a variety of vaccines.
