Amaran Biotech successfully introduced Taiwan's first fully automated aseptic filling line in 2022.

This state-of-the-art technology provides high-quality, low-waste filling solutions for high-value biologics, including protein therapeutics, antibody drugs, and nanoparticle-based drug. This system supports various container types, including vials, pre-filled syringes, and cartridges, with an impressive filling accuracy of 99.99%.
During her acceptance speech, Dr. Tessie Che, Chairperson and General Manager of Amaran Biotech, stated, “We are deeply honored to receive this prestigious recognition from IMAPAC. This award belongs to our entire team! When we made the decision to build our automated aseptic filling line in 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic posed unprecedented challenges—international engineers were unable to travel to Taiwan for on-site installation. Nevertheless, through close remote collaboration with the equipment manufacturer, our team successfully completed the installation. We overcame every obstacle, ensuring our facility met stringent regulatory standards set by the FDA, EMA, ICH, PIC/S, and ISPE. Moving forward, Amaran Biotech is committed to leveraging high-tech innovation, including AI integration, to deliver comprehensive, customized CDMO services and become a global leader in pharmaceutical manufacturing.”
