Hanko site
Fermion’s manufacturing site in Hanko comprises three manufacturing units for intermediates and APIs, distillery, hydrogenation unit, maintenance, warehouses, QC laboratory and administrative functions. The site has a VOC-incineration plant and a shared chemical and biological wastewater treatment plant. The facility’s focus is on high volume APIs up to production volumes over 300 metric tons per annum. The site is also equipped with closed process technology for highly potent APIs (HPAPI). Out of the three manufacturing units, unit 2 is used to manufacture intermediates, whereas only final APIs are produced in unit 3. The newest installment, unit 4, can manufacture both final APIs and intermediates. Over 180 Fermion employees work at the Hanko site.
