Pepex Biomedical, Inc., a privately held company that has developed an all new proprietary sensor technology known as "CCM™", announced today it has reached an agreement with The Tech Group , a division of West Pharmaceuticals Services, Inc., to be the premier manufacturer of the Trio™ systems and sensor modules. The seven year contract also includes development and engineering services from Insight Product Development, whom will take over primary responsibility of design development and assist with transitioning to full scale manufacturing on custom equipment built by the Mikron Automation. Pepex will take delivery of its first production cell, a Mikron G05 V4 to be used as a pilot production unit in the next few weeks.
"This is more than just a milestone for us," according to Pepex CEO, Steve Collins. "After a long and comprehensive search it was ultimately the extraordinary effort by The Tech Group, Insight, and Mikron that proved to us that they are the kind of partners we want to be in business with. The synergies between these three companies and history of working together are so exceptional that Pepex believes this is just the tip of the iceberg in what will be a long and rewarding relationship."
