Sigma-Aldrich Expansion in Republic of China to Support SAFC Growth
The site is to be developed in three phases. Sigma-Aldrich expects to initially invest $25 million to acquire land rights and construct its first-phase that includes a large-scale, non cGMP, multi-purpose organic manufacturing facility dedicated to supporting its SAFC(R) fine chemicals business unit. Sigma-Aldrich plans to commence construction of the new plant by year-end 2007. When fully developed the site is expected to produce raw materials, key intermediates and final products in support of SAFC's Pharma, Hitech and Supply Solutions businesses through a manufacturing plant, and analytical, packaging and warehousing facilities.
Future development phases at the site will also support Sigma-Aldrich's Research Essentials and Research Specialties business units and include the extension of analytical, packaging and warehousing facilities for its research-based business.
