Lab
Laboratories is an integral part of modern pharma facilities and a part of the pharma value chain. NE works closely across architectural and engineering disciplines to deliver optimised and efficient quality control and research operations that meet the needs for flexibility, long-term capacity and regulatory compliance. Our specialist skills include:

Quality control laboratories

R&D laboratories

In-vivo facilities

R&D facilities

Small-scale production facilities for personalised medicine

Multipurpose laboratories and vivariums to support multiple products
Laboratories are key for pharma and biotech companies, from basic research, through drug development to the final quality control of production batches. Drug development and quality control require laboratories that are in GMP compliance. If the substances include biological agents or genetically modified organisms (GMOs), the laboratories must in addition comply with biocontainment requirements and have a carefully planned and functional design.
Personalised medicine changes the games in healthcare. This kind of medicine in its most personalised form, i.e. cell- and gene therapy using the individual patient’s own stem cells as the raw material, poses a number of challenges. NE has been working with the customers by supporting their establishment of the facility.

Medical device
Medical devices play a huge role in many different healthcare settings. they are crucial in patient treatment and diagnostics.
Although medical devices are immensely diverse, they still require some common areas of expertise. NE has been the in-house engineering and consulting partner of Novo Nordisk since the early medical device days. The services is expand to other area of products e.g. IVD and our famous customer includes Roche Diagnostics, Siemens etc.
