The plant has installed equipment from global manufacturers in the industry: Stilmas, Olsa, GEA Westfalia, General Electric healthcare, Pall, and Steriline.

"This is the only this kind of plant in Eastern Europe. Our competitors are in Austria, South Africa and China. None of the neighboring countries has such production," the company said.

For the official opening of the production Biopharma will hold an international conference entitled "Topical Issues of Industrial Production of Blood Products" with the participation of representatives of scientific, medical and regulatory institutions in the field of transfusion from more than 20 countries.

As reported, the plant will have three lines for the production of albumin, immunoglobulin, and factor VIII. The processing capacity ranges from 250,000 to one million liters of plasma per year. Biopharma planned to put it into operation at the end of 2018.
