IPEA Announces: Second Excipient GMP Certification-Grace Davison, Sorocaba, Brazil
In November, following an audit of Grace Davison’s facility in Sorocaba, Brazil, IPEA’s Certification Board agreed with the auditor’s findings and determined that the facility has earned a Certificate of Excipient GMP Conformance for excipients produced there. The certification applies to their Silicon Dioxide NF grades Syloid® 63FP and 244 FP and states:
"The excipients certified are produced in substantial conformance to the IPEC-PQG Good Manufacturing Practices Guide for Pharmaceutical Excipients 2006 through warehousing and shipment to their customers."
This is the second certificate issued by IPEA. Two additional GMP certification audits have been completed this month for an IPEC member company. There are at least three other companies that have approached IPEA with an interest in the GMP certification program. For more information, excipient manufacturers are invited to contact ipeainc@aol.com or check the IPEA website information at http://www.ipeainc.com/certification-status.
