Sartorius Acquires Toha Plast GmbH
Technology group strengthens its position in plastics technology for biopharmaceutical disposables

05 Jan 2007 - Sartorius AG acquired all shares in Toha Plast GmbH effective January 3, 2007. Toha Plast GmbH develops and manufactures plastic components for the medical and biotechnology branches and has been a long-term supplier and development partner to Sartorius in plastics technology including processing of thermoplastics and injection molding.
 
The company has some 75 employees at its location in Goettingen and modern cleanroom production. The contractual parties of this acquisition have agreed to maintain the price of this transaction confidential. In July 2006, Sartorius had already purchased a relatively small Toha Plast production facility in Puerto Rico. By acquiring Toha Plast, the Sartorius Biotechnology Division plans to continue to expand its technological expertise in the field of plastics.
