The planned extension of the production capacity for the single-use tests was projected to be implemented in a step-by-step manner, with the final step, a fully automated production line, estimated to be achieved in 2021-2022. Following the decision made today this investment will be brought forward so that Calmark can scale up the production volume faster but also achieve significantly reduced manufacturing costs for the single-use tests more quickly.
"I am delighted that SEB gives us this opportunity to bring the final step of the automation forward. Achieving lower manufacturing costs sooner will enable volume sales in the countries where we can do the greatest good," says Anna Söderlund, CEO. "We are looking forward to being able to meet a great demand for our products."
