Nypro Expands Manufacturing Footprint in Massachusetts

Nypro, a Jabil company, has opened its new manufacturing plant in Devens, Mass.

The new facility will offer a full selection of Nypro Healthcare services—from product development, mold design and build, to injection molding and automated assembly—for single-use and electro-mechanical Class I, II and III healthcare devices. This additional operational space increases Nypro Healthcare’s clean-room space by 60 percent in Massachusetts. The company is headquartered in nearby town of Clinton.
 
The 200,000-square-foot facility features a state-of-the-art training area, metrology lab, a fully digitized machine shop, environmentally controlled chambers, and a 60,000-square-foot, Class 8 clean room. The facility will employ 50 professionals in the next 12 months and is projected to continue to expand, with the goal of adding another 50 positions within two years.
 
“The opening of the new Devens facility emphasizes Nypro’s commitment to its customers and community,” said John Witkowski, general manager, Nypro Healthcare, Clinton. “By delivering high-end, new product development technologies we help our customers produce advanced new devices. This expansion demonstrates Nypro Healthcare’s continued drive for growth and enhanced capabilities.
 
With this move, the Massachusetts-based company, whose demand had exceeded the capacity of its Clinton headquarters, according to company management, will be able to produce hundreds of thousands of additional medical devices daily, while maintaining the close connection to the technical resources in Clinton.
 
Through a network of 25 facilities, Nypro Healthcare also provides product development services, in addition to expertise in processing, tooling, packaging, quality engineering, procurement and supply chain management.
 
With 25 dedicated facilities in 11 countries and more than 8,000 employees worldwide, Nypro Healthcare is a business unit of Nypro, a Jabil Company, a global healthcare design and manufacturing services provider.
