Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd. celebrated the grand opening of its brand new dynamic 10,000 class cleanroom on 3 December. Laurent Guillot, CEO of Saint Gobain High Performance Solution, President, Mr. Javier Gimeno, General Delegate & CEO, Saint-Gobain Asia Pacific, Ms. Jean Angus, CEO of Saint Gobain Life Science, Mr. Jason Anderson, Vice President PPL Asia and Ms. Lucia Sun, Managing Director PPL Greater China attended the ceremony. Mr. Ye Jianhong representing the CPC of Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou, was also invited to attend the ceremony. Government officials, Saint-Gobain senior management members and key customers visited the new cleanroom following the ceremony.
Certified by NEBB, the new cleanroom is compliant with ISO14644 and ISO Class 7 dynamic technical standards. With a total area of 2,400 m2, it is Saint-Gobain’s largest ISO Class 7 cleanroom at the moment.
Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics (Hangzhou) Co., Ltd. was formerly ZenPure Membrane Technologies Co., Ltd. Ever since the acquisition of ZenPure by Saint-Gobain in May 2015, the company has been seeing healthy business growth. Saint-Gobain had invested 30 million RMB to construct the highly advanced cleanroom mainly because of the Group’s aspiration to turn its plant in Hangzhou into a key center for R&D and manufacturing to support the Life Science business in the Asia Pacific region.
Started operating in October 2018, the new cleanroom will help Saint-Gobain bring greater values to the rapidly growing bio-pharmaceutical, vaccines, medical device, cell therapy, semi-conductor and micro electronics industries as it elevates the Group’s capabilities and quality in high standard filtration products.
Laurent said: “We have all what we need, a favorable environment, strong, growing and support customers, dedicated and talented team, the success is already there. With more than 20% of consecutive growth year-on-year. We are sure the new clean room will bring us additional growth in 2019.”
