On June 15, 2016, West’s contract manufacturing division—formerly known as The Tech Group—attended Medical Design & Manufacturing (MD&M) East in New York City. This annual event is especially insightful, as it offers access to six additional industry expos–EastPack, ATX (Automation Technology) East, Atlantic Design & Manufacturing, PLASTEC East, HBA Global, and Quality Expo. Show attendees discovered the latest innovations, new materials, and state-of-the-art manufacturing processes from among 900 suppliers.
Injectable drug delivery and containment can be a challenge for drug manufacturers, especially as regulations and quality standards are increasing and as biologic drug products present new challenges in their sensitivity and dose volume. At West, we work closely with our customers to understand industry trends, the challenges our customers face, and we work by their side to drive new innovations to support their work to deliver medicines to the patients that need them.
Temperature sensitive drug products, such as biologics or insulin, often require cold storage. But what, exactly is “cold”?

As we are celebrating our 100th anniversary this year, the West Dublin site also celebrates 25 years of successful operations. Children’s Health Foundation Temple Street has been a charity partner of West Dublin’s ‘West without Borders’ initiative since 2012, and during that time the Dublin team has raised a staggering €440,000 to fund a range of vital services and cutting-edge equipment that save children’s lives every day.
