Merck and Schneider Electric announce new collaboration in Chinese market

Merck has signed a collaboration with Schneider Electric to establish a new co-marketing relationship in the Chinese market.

The partners will work together to deliver automated biopharmaceutical processes for China's biopharmaceutical industry, combining the technical expertise of Merck and the technological capabilities of Schneider Electric.

Merck already offers the industry's most comprehensive portfolio of high-quality products and services for biopharmaceutical manufacturing, but is looking to expand its capabilities in China due to a growing demand for automated production methods.

Shorter time-to-market for new drugs, flexible manufacturing and stricter compliance and data integrity requirements are among the key issues that Merck and Schneider Electric's joint service offerings will address, helping customers to save time and benefit from greater flexibility.

Andrew Bulpin, head of Merck's process solutions business area, said: "Schneider Electric's automation solutions combined with our hardware, software and single-use consumables would enable an automated biopharmaceutical solution for our respective customers."
