We’re grateful to all our investors for their partnership as we continue to improve the accessibility of blood-plasma derived products for patients in India and emerging countries.”

Earlier this year, Plasmagen inaugurated a new manufacturing facility for blood plasma-derived protein therapeutics in Kolar, Bengaluru - India’s first plasma manufacturing facility by a pure-play, end-to-end blood-plasma company and only the fifth plasma fractionation facility in India. It has the initial capacity to process 5,00,000 litres of plasma annually and will produce multiple plasma products like albumin, immunoglobulins and coagulation factors. It will significantly improve the demand-supply gap for blood-plasma derived products, and at affordable prices. Additional capacity has been incorporated into the design, allowing PlasmaGen to expand its product portfolio in the future.
