ILC Dover Announces Multi-compendial Water for Injection (WFI) for Growing Biotherapeutic and Cell & Gene Therapy Markets
NEWARK, Del., July 28, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

ILC Dover LP ("ILC Dover" or the "Company"), specializing in innovative 
single-use solutions for biotherapeutics and pharmaceutical processing, 
announced the launch of Water for Injection (WFI) for the biotherapeutics 
market. Used for the preparation of media, buffers, and other ingredients for 
biopharmaceuticals and medical devices, this launch continues to expand ILC 
Dover's integrated solution set across the entire biotherapeutic and 
pharmaceutical manufacturing workflow.

The addition of WFI follows new product offerings including single-use liquid 
bags in addition to the Company's most recent acquisition of KSE Scientific in 
December 2021. As a leading supplier of WFI and related solutions for emerging 
biopharma, cell & gene therapy, tissue banking and medical device end markets, 
KSE Scientific with ILC Dover combined decades of world-class engineering to 
offer synergies across the liquid handling and transfer workflows to meet 
customers' most challenging specs and end uses.

The Company will manufacture multi-compendial WFI solutions in Durham, NC but 
ultimately will utilize its growing cGMP global footprint to support its 
customers and partners worldwide.

"When we identify constraints in the markets we serve – we respond. Now, by 
securing supply and strengthening our reliability as a solutions provider, ILC 
Dover is in a position to offer WFI and single-use liquid bags to customers 
across the world," said Corey Walker, CEO of ILC Dover. "As we continue to grow 
and meet demand, we will remain focused on providing broader and more 
integrated workflow solutions within the biopharma, cell & gene therapy, and 
related life sciences end markets."

In addition, the Company embarked upon an expansion project within KSE 
Scientific's 25,000 sq ft production facility in Durham, NC to offer WFI 
produced by distillation, a key raw material for the biopharma and cell & gene 
therapy markets. This expansion allows ILC Dover to have greater flexibility in 
serving customers around the world by adding distillation for WFI to existing 
reverse osmosis WFI capabilities. In-house capability to produce WFI by 
distillation was a critical milestone for ILC Dover's rapid expansion into 
other sterile liquids offerings coming soon.

ILC Dover is committed to providing comprehensive solutions customized to its 
customers' unique needs. With the recent launches of its in-house manufactured 
liquid bags, fluid transfer assemblies, and WFI, ILC Dover can now offer 
customized WFI solutions with a resilient supply chain, unparalleled delivery 
times, and rapid scalability.
