Webinar | A Bridge to the Future of Aseptic Manufacturing: A Pharma 4.0 Case Study
January 15, 2026
Growing demand for high-quality sterile fill finish capacity is putting pressure on development timelines and supply programs across the industry. As expectations for Annex 1 alignment, agility and data-driven control rise, partners need facilities designed to keep pace with evolving requirements.
In this on-demand webinar, Chad Hafer, Director of Technical Operations, Aseptic Fill Finish at Kindeva, walks through the thinking behind the Bridgeton sterile fill finish campus. He explains how Pharma 4.0 concepts and the Annex 1 draft informed our approach, and what that meant for building a site that can keep pace as expectations evolve.
Watch Chad’s full talk to learn more about:
- The design principles that shaped our Bridgeton facility
- The role of automation and interconnectivity across our aseptic manufacturing
- How we built in flexibility and scalability from day one
