KeyPlants to extend leadership in offsite construction for the life science industry with the acquisition of the assets in Swedish Modules, our modular workshop partner with more than 45 years of experience delivering more than 3,500 modules to over 30 countries.
KeyPlants, a provider of modular facilities for medicines, including biologics, and cell and gene therapy, has reached an agreement to acquire Swedish Modules, a workshop specialising in delivery of prefabricated, high-specification modular solutions.
Swedish Modules has more than 45 years of experience in prefabrication and has delivered modules to more than 30 countries. From now, the workshop will be integrated into KeyPlants’ supply chain, from engineering, fabrication and delivery through a qualified facility.
The acquisition will strengthen the company’s modular workshop capabilities and support its ability to offer standardised, as well as customised, process integrated facility solutions. The workshop in Vara, Sweden, has the capacity to manufacture more than 20,000 sqm of cleanroom space per year.
“This acquisition allows us to further reduce the delivery time in our projects and to provide improved quality and reliability to our customers as well as to supply standard POD cleanroom space on demand. The colleagues in the workshop have unrivalled experience and expertise when it comes to modular fabrication and we are delighted to welcome them to our team” commented Jörgen Harrysson, MD at KeyPlants. “This is a strategic acquisition for KeyPlants, supporting our vision to be the leading provider of innovative life science facilities.”
