Grifols Celebrates 50 Years of Manufacturing Life-Changing Plasma-Derived Medicines for Patients at Flagship Site in Clayton, N.C. - Seite 3
Building on a legacy of commitment
While always dedicated to the production of plasma medicines, the Clayton site has operated under multiple names throughout its 50-year history, first beginning operations as Cutter Laboratories in 1974 before coming under the Miles Laboratories umbrella in 1983. In 1995, the site began to operate under the name of its parent company, Bayer, maintaining this brand for a decade until Talecris Biotherapeutics purchased it in 2005. Grifols acquired the Clayton site in 2011 and, with a mission to improve the health and well-being of people around the world, carried forward the site’s legacy of producing quality products to benefit patients. Today, Grifols employs more than 1,600 people onsite, with another 400 in nearby Research Triangle Park, the largest research park in the U.S.
