France-headquartered Sartorius Stedim Biotech (SSB), a leading international supplier for the pharma and biotech industries, has acquired Cellca GmbH based in Laupheim, Germany.
Founded in 2005, the company with around 30 employees generated sales revenue of around 6 million euros ($6.7 million) in 2014. Financial terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
Cellca’s major customers are biopharmaceutical companies as well as biosimilar firms that do not, or only partly, conduct their process development in their in-house facilities. Through this acquisition, Sartorius Stedim Biotech is further expanding its service offering for process development. SSB has already strengthened this segment by its two recent acquisitions of BioOutsource and TAP Biosystems.
