The project consisted in the design and construction of a new plant to produce the Respimat product in sterile conditions, and includes the production area, several laboratories, a warehouse, technical and office areas, and a waste management unit. Health permits were this year obtained from the AEMPS (Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products), for production in the packaging section.

Jer nimo Farn s, General Director of TechnipFMC in Spain, commented: We are very proud of this milestone. The completion of this project complying deadlines and quality standards, positions us as a reference within the sector in Spain and TechnipFMC Life Sciences Division.

The Boehringer Ingelheim project represents one of the largest investments made by the pharmaceutical sector in Spain in recent years. With its entry into operation, the new plant creates more than 200 highly qualified jobs and will be able to produce and export up to 30 million units per year.
