Gener8 Reorganizes Carlsbad Facility for Expanded Manufacturing Capabilities
SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Gener8 LLC ("Gener8"), a provider of full product lifecycle engineering and manufacturing solutions for highly complex instruments and products within the life sciences and medical device markets, together with its capital partner, Sverica Capital Management LP, is restructuring its 15,000 sq. ft. Carlsbad facility to provide microfluidics cartridge design, development, and manufacturing under one roof.
"We've seen an increasing demand for low- to medium-volume manufacturing of microfluidic cartridges and other fluidics products from a lot of our customers," says Alfred Macha, the VP of Operations at Gener8, "and we're growing and improving our manufacturing operations to fill this gap and provide more integrated, end-to-end services." The revamped facilities will include a new 1,000 sq. ft. class 8 cleanroom and 250 sq. ft dry room with expanded reagent filling and lyophilization capabilities. In addition, the facility will house new laser, CNC, injection molding, and ultrasonic welding instruments, dedicated to specific manufacturing projects.
This investment will enable the Carlsbad facility to produce plastic consumables at scales of hundreds to tens of thousands assembled parts a year. "These new capabilities will enable us to streamline and accelerate project timelines," added Jerry Jurkiewicz, CEO of Gener8. "This is how we've organized our facilities in Sunnyvale and restructuring in Carlsbad will enable us to better serve our clients in Southern California."
To operate these new manufacturing facilities, Gener8 has expanded their full-time manufacturing workforce, specializing in the manufacturing of plastic consumables for the broader medical device and biotechnology industry.
