The project’s primary objective is to support the existing Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) facility operated by GE HealthCare in Eindhoven in its transformation into a PET (Positron Emission Tomography) Centre of Excellence. 

Cleanroom Combination Group, based in the Netherlands, specialises in the design, construction, and validation of controlled environments and cleanroom facilities for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and high-tech industries.

The initiative involves several key developments. These include facilitating new New Product Introduction (NPI) tracer testing and providing specialised training for Contract Manufacturing Organisations (CMOs).

It will also focus on sustaining and growing revenue from FDG (Fluorodeoxyglucose), increasing production capacity for 18F isotopes, and introducing new PET radiopharmaceutical products for commercial manufacture.

GE HealthCare, headquartered in Chicago, US, is a global leader in medical technology, pharmaceutical diagnostics, and digital solutions, with a significant presence in the field of molecular imaging and radiopharmaceutical production.

This collaboration represents a step in strengthening Europe’s radiopharmaceutical manufacturing infrastructure and advancing the availability of PET imaging products for clinical and research applications.
