Azzur Cleanrooms on Demand, a provider of early-phase life sciences GxP manufacturing, has recently completed the design and construction of their second facility located in Vista, California.
Azzur Cleanrooms on Demand is already home to ready-to-use cleanrooms equipped to meet the demands required. The facilities contain ISO Class 7/8 ready-to-use cleanrooms with ISO 5 BSCs with sizes ranging from 350 to 770 sqft, provided on an annual basis. These can be optimised for small-to-medium scale processes, R&D, and early-phase manufacturing.
Azzur Cleanrooms on Demand San Diego is the group's second cleanroom facility, an expansion of their initial offering in Waltham, MA, established in 2018.
In addition to the opening of its San Diego facility, Azzur Group plans to open its third facility in Burlington, MA in the second half of 2021, with plans for further national expansion throughout 2022.
Azzur's hybrid model includes turnkey GMP support: on-demand cleanroom facilities, materials management, storage, asset management, and supply chain solutions. Azzur Group's portfolio - Azzur Cleanrooms on Demand, Azzur Advisory and Consulting, Azzur Labs, and Azzur Training Center - enables companies to focus on the science and early-phase cGMP manufacturing without the burden of facility ownership and maintenance.

Azzur chose San Diego because of the growth in the biotechnology and pharmaceutical sectors in the area. Azzur Cleanrooms on Demand is conveniently and strategically placed adjacent to Azzur Labs, allowing clients to have access to comprehensive services for their pharmaceutical and therapeutic manufacturing needs.

"We are very excited to bring our game-changing model to the rapidly growing San Diego market. This new facility, combined with Azzur's expertise in cGMP compliance, will give our clients a great strategic advantage by accelerating their pathway to the clinic for critical therapies," said Dan Dernbach, VP of Operations for Azzur Cleanrooms on Demand San Diego.
