The upcoming extension of the successful factory in Rudolstadt – which is also the Sandoz Group’s international Center of Excellence for respiratory and ophthalmological generic medications - will take the number of employees from the current 400 to 800 by 2020.
Pharmaceutical products have been produced in Rudolstadt for 140 years and under the Aeropharm name since 2002. The pharmaceutical sector’s infrastructure there and the cluster of experts it has attracted, have helped the company grow successfully in the last 15 years. Its more than 120 scientists specialize in developing innovative highly effective medications for asthma and chronic lung diseases. More than 15 million units of Aeropharm medication are distributed each year in 50 countries. No doubt some more will be added to the list once the premises have been extended. (gro)
