Rockland Immunochemicals Expands Laboratories to Keep Pace with Growth

Leading architects and contractors in the biopharma industry in and around the Philadelphia area were engaged to plan and to build a technology-friendly 60,000 square foot facility in Limerick, PA.  The new location brings Rockland closer to some of its largest biopharma clients, while maintaining its local Pennsylvania roots.  The laboratories allow Rockland to build a larger business that delivers value to clients, employees and community.

Importantly, the labs are designed with flexible space where Rockland and its collaborative partners can deliver an expansive selection of services that fulfill the strategic needs of today and the future at an unsurpassed level of quality.  A substantial amount of space is reserved within the new facility for up and coming growth areas, including epigenetics and stem cells.  As customers require more, Rockland can move quickly to satisfy those customer needs.

Rockland’s values center around the quality of every product.  Each antibody goes through a rigorous quality control testing procedure before it leaves the facility.  To sustain this fundamental ethic, sufficient space with precise design enables the Rockland Advantage of both manufacturing and service.

Rockland’s new facilities consist of  clean rooms for cell culture, suites for molecular biology, larger lot capacity production capabilities and increased aseptic processing areas. The result builds on Rockland’s successful life science partnering strategy and moves it forward as an organization in a positive direction.
