Sartorius collaborates with Sanofi to commercialize end-to-end platform for
downstream process intensification

  * Sartorius selected as preferred partner for development and
    commercialization of integrated and continuous biomanufacturing (ICB)
    platform

* Modular platform will combine highest flexibility with standardization

  * ICB supports lower resource consumption and higher productivity,
    enabling more affordable patient care and sustainable bioprocessing

  * Collaboration demonstrates Sartorius' leading position in the field of
    process intensification

The life science group Sartorius is collaborating with biopharmaceutical
company Sanofi to develop an end-to-end platform for integrated and
continuous downstream bioprocessing. Selected as a preferred supplier,
Sartorius will contribute its engineering and manufacturing expertise to
commercialize ICB platforms based on prototypes developed by Sanofi. In
return, Sanofi will grant Sartorius exclusive access to its know-how and
patents related to the ICB platform.

Sartorius is committing to the rapid development of hardware, consumables
and process automation for diverse applications and volumes from development
to commercial scale. As part of the collaboration and license agreement,
Sartorius will exclusively commercialize the ICB platform offering to
customers worldwide.

"Technological innovation is crucial for biopharmaceutical companies to
significantly reduce the cost of drug manufacturing - while improving the
environmental footprint of their operations - and ultimately getting
life-saving drugs to patients faster. As the biologics landscape becomes
more diverse, teaming up with Sanofi is an excellent basis for developing a
unique modular platform that combines flexibility with the advantages of
intensified bioprocessing. This collaboration will help Sartorius to further
expand its position as a leading company in the field of integrated and
continuous bioprocessing," said Jan Schäfer, Head of Separation Systems at
Sartorius.

Integrated continuous biomanufacturing is an advanced approach to the
production of biopharmaceuticals. The concept aims to maximize efficiency by
enabling uninterrupted and steady materials flow, as opposed to traditional
batch methods, and by integrating multiple unit operations into a lean
process setup. ICB reduces the overall process footprint, leading to lower
raw material and energy consumption, higher productivity, and less waste.

Sartorius offers a wide array of applications for process intensification in
both upstream and downstream, ranging from high-throughput tools for process
development to scalable, flexible manufacturing solutions.
