Gilero expands injection molding capabilities

Gilero, a Sanner Group Company and medical device design, development, and contract manufacturer, is expanding its manufacturing capabilities with a new 5,620 square meter facility in Greensboro, North Carolina. The new facility will be dedicated to producing critical components for medical devices and pharmaceutical packaging, as well as desiccant solutions to protect moisture-sensitive drugs and devices. The location of this facility establishes US-based injection molding and expands manufacturing capabilities to meet growing customer demand.

The new Greensboro facility with clean room class 7 and 8 will house state-of-the-art injection molding and desiccant filling machines, quality control laboratories, and will have humidity-controlled production areas. This expansion reflects Gilero and Sanner’s long-term growth strategy and dedication to providing customers with efficient and scalable manufacturing solutions. Production will begin in the second quarter of 2025.

“The launch of our Greensboro facility marks an exciting milestone for Gilero as we continue to expand our capabilities to support our clients’ evolving needs,” said Ted Mosler (picture), President of Sanner US. “With this facility, we will be able to provide even greater value to our clients through faster production timelines, enhanced quality control, and increased flexibility.”

With this important step, Sanner can now serve desiccant packaging customers in the North American pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industries with the most important products from the vast portfolio directly from Greensboro. This increases service commitment and will strengthen Sanner’s market position.

The Greensboro facility will complement Gilero’s already existing design centers and manufacturing facilities across North America. Together with the Sanner Group, Gilero is building a next generation medical device CDMO offering that combines agility and smart thinking with a long tradition in the active primary healthcare packaging sector, including the world’s largest portfolio of desiccant packaging and moisture management solutions.
