Berkshire Sterile Manufacturing

In 2019 Sharp agreed a preferred partnership agreement with innovative sterile manufacturer Berkshire Sterile Manufacturing (BSM)

This deepens the operational collaboration between the two companies to benefit those pharma companies looking for an integrated provider of sterile fill-finish, packaging, labeling and distribution services for small volume biotech formats.

Massachusetts-based BSM is a fill/finish contract manufacturer incorporating 100% isolator-based sterile filling to its lines for syringes, vials and cartridges for the biotech and pharmaceutical industries. The isolator-based filling technology removes the risk of human contamination from the formulation and filling process and deepens Sharp’s clinical manufacturing capabilities.
