West Pharmaceutical Services, an indirect subsidiary of West Pharmaceutical India Packaging, is planning to construct a new compression molding facility in Sri City, India, located along the border of Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu states of India.

West chairman and chief executive officer Donald Morel Jr, commenting on the commencement of first facility in India, said the company is experiencing a rapid growth and expanding its business in Asia.

''The plant in India will help West meet market demand and establishes a West presence near our pharmaceutical customers in India," Morel Jr added.

"Our future facility in Sri City will provide much needed capacity to satisfy the needs of a dynamic, growing market in both India and the Asia Pacific region."

The first phase of the construction will begin in August 2012 on a metal seal assembly and compression molding facility, covering a built-up area of 15,300m?.

The built-up area for the plant and office will eventually reach 37,700m? at the completion of Phase 3 in 2023, according to West Pharmaceutical.

Pharmaceutical Packaging Systems Asia Pacific region president Warwick Bedwell said the investment helps the company to partner with customers in India and the Asia Pacific region to provide medicines to patients more efficiently, reliably and safely.

"When the facility is completed, we anticipate a reduction in lead times for supply to our customers in India," Bedwell added.
