From Blood Plasma to Life-Saving Medicine

Producing life-saving drugs from blood plasma is long and complex. Numerous laborious purification steps are required to provide patients with safe and effective protein preparations. It often takes seven to nine months between the plasma donation and the release of the finished product. The production of drugs from plasma proteins is longer compared to the much shorter process times of biotechnologically or chemically manufactured drugs.

The plasma processing industry relies on ZETA for its valuable protein therapies for production processes and systems. A pioneer in aseptic processing solutions, ZETA focuses on the design, construction, automation, and qualification of customized biopharmaceutical plants, using fully integrated digital engineering tools, including its digital twin.

ZETA acts as a one-stop-shop and combines all planning services under one roof – from production systems to HVAC, cleanroom, and technical building equipment. ZETA serves as the general planner for an international plasma processor in Vienna, Austria, and successfully manages the large-scale expansion of its production facilities.
