Preparing a Renowned Pharmaceutical Manufacturer in China for EU Regulatory Inspection

Two of our senior consultants have just returned from China, where they have been preparing a reknown manufacturer of active pharmaceutical ingredients and finished medicinal products for an upcoming EU regulatory inspection in October. The overarching goal of the mission is to obtain the EU-GMP certificate, which is essential for selling pharmaceutical products within the European Union. Our auditors are receiving expert support from our colleague Na Cheng, who is fluent in Mandarin.

As part of a long-term collaboration, PharmaKorell is also assisting this business partner in establishing a subsidiary in the EU to further optimise market approval processes.

ISO-Zertifikat LinkedIn 1080x1080

New ISO 9001 Certificate

PharmaKorell has successfully completed its annual ISO 9001 audit, and for the first time, the Munich location was included in the audit.

TÜV Süd reviewed various aspects of our quality management system, including documentation and records, processes and procedures, the quality of our services, and customer feedback.

This internationally recognised certificate not only confirms the quality of our services at the locations in Lörrach and Munich but also serves as evidence of our ongoing commitment to providing our customers with the best possible service.

Special thanks go to our entire team, whose daily dedication enables the continuous improvement of our quality management system.

PharmaKorell Provides -80°C Storage for Innovative Immuno-Oncology Drug

PharmaKorell Provides -80°C Storage for Innovative Immuno-Oncology Drug

We are immensely pleased to contribute to the advancement of innovative biotech medicines, which often require ultra-low-temperature storage at -80°C, by taking on the crucial task of temperature-appropriate storage.

Upon customer request, we have installed multiple ultra-low-temperature freezers in our storage facility within four weeks. These have been qualified and commissioned in accordance with stringent pharmaceutical standards. A backup freezer is available in case of unexpected disruptions. Additionally, the storage facility is secured with an alarm system and an emergency power supply.

It’s important to us to be able to respond flexibly to individual client requirements while simultaneously having the capacity to handle complex projects in a timely manner. At PharmaKorell, we offer the best of both worlds—a multidisciplinary team that brings the competencies of a larger organisation but retains the adaptability and attention to detail expected from smaller companies.

PharmaKorell Resumes Business Travel to China

We have been unable to operate in person in China for the past three years due to COVID-19 travel restrictions. However, during this time, we have perfected our innovative remote audits to ensure consistently high service quality.

We now once again have the opportunity to work on-site in China and personally reconnect with our long-standing business partners. PharmaKorell's Managing Director, Dr. Ulrich Korell, has just returned from Suzhou, where he prepared one of our long-standing Chinese customers for a European GMP inspection. He will also be present on-site during the inspection.

Valuable support for our work with Chinese business partners comes from our team member Na Cheng. She is fluent in both Mandarin and German as well as English, and is very familiar with the different cultures. This enables us to work seamlessly with monolingual Chinese documents and guarantee optimal communication with our Chinese business partners.

Teamausflug LinkedIn 1080x1080 1

Our annual team outing was a great success!

We began the day with a journey to the impressive Vitra Campus in Weil am Rhein. Over a communal breakfast, we fortified ourselves before embarking on a guided tour through the world-class architecture of the campus. Among other things, we had the opportunity to visit the current exhibition, “Garden Futures”, at the Vitra Design Museum and to take a stroll through the garden designed by Piet Oudolf.

Subsequently, we made our way to the Löwen Restaurant in Eimeldingen, where we had time to reflect upon and share our morning experiences.

In the afternoon, at the suggestion of one of our colleagues who volunteers there, we visited the Technical Relief Agency in Lörrach.

We are grateful for a well-spent day amongst colleagues.
