OUR HISTORY
Savio Industrial was created beginning of 2015 to include the site of Pavia previously owned by MSD
History of the Pavia site
The plant was purchased in 1961 by Merck Sharp & Dohme from a small local company (Farmaceutica Cipelli)
During the 70s first investments were made to create an automatic warehouse and a new packaging area
In the 80s the “ enclosed unit” manufacturing area for oral solids (Unit 2) and a small area for ophthalmic products were built
Between the end of the 90s and 2000, significant investments were made, consisting in the expansion of the packaging area,
the creation of a new manufacturing area for oral solids (Unit 1) and the realization of supporting areas (new laboratories, reception and shipping areas in the warehouse). At the same time, the ophthalmic area was dismissed.
In 2013 Merck announced its decision to cease manufacturing activities in Pavia; in June 2015 the site was transferred to SAVIO Group
In 2016 the creation of a new area for the production of non-sterile oral liquids started
History of the Ronco Scrivia site
Between the end of 2016 and the beginning of 2017 Savio Industrial incorporated the site of Ronco Scrivia (Genoa), previously owned by the sister company Istituto Biochimico Nazionale Savio.
The site was created in year 1980 in one of the two actual buildings.
In year 1986 the then owning company (Istituto Biochimico Nazionale Savio) was acquired by the actual Group, which started a program of investments and extension, including the purchase of the second building and the creation of the Injectables area.
In year 2016 the site was transferred to company Savio Industrial, already owning the site in Pavia.
