On May 20th, 2023, transportation of EPICO´s modular pharmaceutical facility project from Pharmadule workshop to port commenced. 

Egyptian pharmaceutical company EIPICO´s, EIPICO-3 project is located outside Cairo in 10th of Ramadan City, Egypt. The modular facility part of the project consists of 88 modules and is approximately 5000 sqm.

After completion of the project, the EIPICO-3 facility will be the largest and first factory in Egypt and the Middle East to produce biologicals and biosimilars alternatives and medicine. EIPICO-3 will manufacture biological products, monoclonal antibodies (MABs) and biopharmaceutical proteins.

Pharmadule Morimatsu will have provided conceptual, basic and detailed design as well as fabrication, on-site installation and commissioning & validation. With its strength in design and engineering together with an extensive supply chain and large fabrication facilities Pharmadule Morimatsu offers a one-stop service for modular pharmaceutical facilities.

During the project execution Pharmadule Morimatsu maintained an efficient and close communication with the client team, Egyptian officials, Professional Engineers, and other project stakeholders identifying and solving challenges occurring in the project. As fabrication of the modular facility is done off-site, 88 modules could be fabricated in Pharmadule Morimatsu workshops in 100 days. This includes completing the installation of cleanroom workshop, process equipment, piping, ventilation, electrical systems as well as BMS & EMS, fire alarm and security systems. Thereby reducing the on-site workload and shortening the overall construction period and project program.

Pharmadule Morimatsu has a long experience from delivering modular facilities all over the world. The project managers, design teams and validation experts have in-depth knowledge of industry regulations, codes and product technology. Drivers are the customer needs, innovation and providing the industry with one-stop solution for facility, equipment, and value-added services.

The advantage of the modular solution is that we decrease “time to market”, which ultimately benefits the patients in the Middle East as well as the rest of the world.
