Pronova Biopharma
Production plant, filling
line and factory
2006

RH ARKITEKTER completed three jobs for Pronova Biopharma, a manufacturer of drugs based on omega 3 fatty acids designed to prevent cardiovascular disease. A master plan that identifies options for future extensions and lays down the architectural and graphic guidelines for future renovation work has been written for the existing production plant in Sandefjord, Norway. The results are improved logistics and more clarity. A GMP-approved filling line from which the final product is filled into barrels was built into an existing production building. Heavy emphasis was placed on easy to clean and resistant surfaces, a healthy, safe working environment and rational working. RH ARKITEKTER also helped Pronova Biopharma to analyse various location options as part of the company’s aim to locate a new production facility outside Norway. The result was a sketch visualisation for a new factory at Kalundborg, which is now in use.
