Sisseln, 31/05/2023

Aenova, the world's leading development service provider and contract manufacturer for the pharmaceutical and healthcare industries, secures recertifications. In March 2023, Aenova's Sisseln site again successfully passed certification in ISO 9001 Quality Management System, ISO 14001 Environment, ISO 45001 Occupational Health and Safety, and FSSC 22000 Food Safety. The certifications must be repeated every three years. The Aenova Group's production site for complex conventional solids in Sisseln, Switzerland, has been certified in various ISO areas for more than ten years and relies on an effective management system for quality, environment, occupational health and safety, and food safety. Particularly because of its activities in the area of pharmaceutical products, effective management in these areas is important in order to demonstrate performance to employees and customers as well as to the community and the authorities. In terms of environmental performance, the Sisseln site has long demonstrated its responsibility: it operates free of fossil energy with 6 GwH of electricity from hydropower, uses also its own photovoltaic systems and is climate-neutral. "The Aenova site in Sisseln has special know-how and state-of-the-art infrastructure for the production and packaging of moisture-sensitive solid dosage forms and innovative technologies.

Interesting insights for school students into the pharmaceutical professional world

18/11/2022 - National Future Day at Aenova in Switzerland a complete success

Kirchberg / Sisseln, 18.11.2022

It's been a long time since there was so much going on at our manufacturing sites in Kirchberg and Sisseln, Switzerland: both sites were buzzing like a beehive, so many interested young students had registered for the National Future Day in Switzerland on November 10.And there was a lot on offer: there were experiments, welding, milling, guided tours of the laboratories, production and the high-bay warehouse. Many questions were asked and these were answered in detail and vividly, e.g. on the topics of hygiene and cleanliness in pharmaceutical production, on apprenticeships in the pharmaceutical and healthcare industry, and much more. The young people and their curiosity about what we do at Aenova, what perspectives there are in professional life and above all: how to give a change of perspective on the classic girl and boy roles in career choice were the focus of the day. At the end of the day, the unanimous feedback was: this open day was a great opportunity to look behind the scenes of one of the world's leading pharmaceutical contract manufacturers. A big thank you to all the young visitors for coming - a big thank you to all our employees who made the day an experience for young and old alike! We look forward to the next Future Day next year!

Holistic sustainability strategy at Aenova: the CO2-free Sisseln site

29/06/2022 - Holistic sustainability strategy at Aenova: the CO2-free Sisseln site

Sisseln, 29/06/2022

The Aenova site in Sisseln, Switzerland, stands for many years of tradition and special know-how, including in the production and packaging of moisture-sensitive solid dosage forms. A comprehensive sustainability strategy is pursued and this makes the site "CO2-free". The environmental program is subject to an annual implementation check and thus continuously anchors sustainability in everyday work.
In Sisseln, Switzerland, high-quality tablets, granules, effervescent tablets and hard capsules are produced by Aenova on a footprint of more than 6,000 m2 and a production area of more than 1,900 m2 by 160 employees - and with a completely CO2-free energy supply by using electricity generated from hydropower. That´s 6 GWh per year of certified electricity from Swiss hydropower; this is supplemented by a photovoltaic system that covers around 8 to 10% of the site's energy requirements. In addition, heat is generated using a particularly smart approach: Process and comfort heat is obtained via heat exchangers as a by-product of the air compressors. As a result, the energy supply of the Aenova site in Sisseln is not only climate-neutral but completely CO2-free. This protects the environment in the best possible way and reduces the consumption of natural resources. For more than ten years, the site has been ISO certified according to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, FSSC 22000 and OHSAS 18001/ISO 45001. In addition, all major projects are approved and supported by the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment.<h5>Good for nature, good for employees</h5>
At the Sisseln site, a total of seven charging facilities for electric cars are available for use by employees at cost price. This service supports the switch to environmentally friendly mobility. And not just for Aenova employees - the plant's neighbors are also offered the use of the charging facilities at the same conditions. Another measure to reduce CO2 emissions is the use of regional food in the site's canteen since the beginning of 2022, offering around 50% vegetarian dishes to also reduce the CO2 footprint of food production and transport.<h5>Measurable effects</h5>
The comprehensive sustainability concept at the Aenova site in Sisseln and its impact on the environment can be measured and demonstrably expressed in figures:<ul><li>0 liters oil consumption</li><li>0 m3 Gas consumption</li><li>0.45 MWh electricity from solar energy</li><li>6 GWh of certified electricity from Swiss hydropower</li><li>4,744 km ridden by 16 employees as part of the "Bike to Work" campaign</li><li>90% LED illuminant</li><li>54 t per year Recycling (paper, plastic, metal, wood)</li></ul>"Our holistic sustainability strategy and comprehensive sustainability management already make us proud," says Fridrik Thorsteinsson, Managing Director at the Sisseln site. "We are convinced that we can thus contribute to environmental protection in production as well as in everyday life. This is particularly sustainable because our colleagues are involved in the individual projects and can thus help shape and experience sustainability. This benefits the environment, nature as well as society in the region." Jan Kengelbach, CEO of Aenova, adds: "We are investing around CHF 2 million in environmental protection measures here between 2020 and 2022. Such a commitment is important to us at the Aenova Group: because this is how we, as a company, make a local contribution to sustainability, and that is an essential investment in the future. In the overall sustainability strategy of Aenova, our site in Sisseln is exemplary. We also support comprehensive sustainability initiatives at the other Aenova sites on our way to CO2 neutrality."
