Press release: ZETA USA: A Rising Champion in Biopharmaceutical Aseptic Processes and Automation for North America

The pharmaceutical industry continues to grow rapidly due to increasing demands for innovative process solutions, full-scale automation, and new manufacturing technologies. To meet this increasing market demand, ZETA, the biomanufacturing facility design expert, established its North American engineering hub in Greater Philadelphia in August 2021, providing ultra-fast-track project delivery. Today, ZETA USA announced it is well established and actively implementing US-based and multi-national projects for leading pharma and biotech companies.

While ZETA USA is a newly established subsidiary of Austrian-based ZETA Holding, its advanced knowledge is founded on over 30 years of delivering highly complex international pharma and biotech projects. ZETA USA, located in the heart of Philadelphia's “Cellicon Valley” area, has already doubled its engineering and automation staff in only six months of operation.

ZETA recently worked with an international healthcare company on a high-tech emulsion system for one of its US locations in Chicago. With a project execution timeframe of only 15 months, from basic design to commissioning, ZETA was able to engineer, develop and fabricate the requisite mobile skids for a full pilot plant for nano-emulsion production. As a result of this successful project execution, the client consequently commissioned ZETA for their "pilot-to-production" expansion of the same nano-emulsion system. A further batch system was integrated into the Customer's Chicago facility.

At the core of ZETA's offer is an advanced pharmaceutical aseptic process knowledge and expertise to master the challenges presented by the principles of Pharma 4.0. "ZETA provides turnkey solutions, including integrated process engineering, in-depth automation, and digitalization solutions for agile digital transformation. Our unique end-to-end approach optimizes quality and safety while significantly reducing project lead times, errors, and cost," explains Lindsay Smart, Head of Sales USA.

"ZETA is trusted by the world's largest pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, and biotech companies as the aseptic process expert in complex customized engineering projects. ZETA is a rising champion in the North American Market, ensuring ultra-fast track delivery while complying with the highest safety and quality standards. Our highly skilled people and in-depth knowledge of pharmaceutical processes make the real difference", states Daniel Maier, COO of ZETA USA.
