Alpha Teknova opens GMP-certified facility in California

Alpha Teknova announced the opening of their newest GMP-certified production facility, enabling bioprocessing and gene therapy companies to get into the clinic faster. Located in Hollister, California, the Company’s state-of-the-art modular manufacturing facility recently received ISO 13485:2016 certification for the production of GMP-grade products. Previously operational for research-grade production, the new facility adds more than 10,000 square feet of GMP-certified ISO cleanrooms and provides a three-fold increase in overall manufacturing capacity. With expanded formulation, dispensing, cleanroom, and warehouse space – including increased automation to support single-use needs and animal-free and endotoxin-controlled environments – the new GMP-certified facility exemplifies Teknova’s modular manufacturing platform, further enabling the flexible, scalable, and consistent production of high-quality reagents that the Company is known for. Bioprocessing and gene therapy companies are now able to work with one trusted partner across the entire clinical pipeline, accelerating their breakthroughs as they transition from RUO to GMP.
