Merit

Northumberland-headquartered Merit, the UK’s leading offsite manufacturing and construction specialist for technically complex buildings, has completed the first construction phase of the UK’s first purpose-built CAR-T cell manufacturing facility in record time: 17 months compared to the three years it would take traditional construction methods. Delivering the facility 3 years earlier allows Autolus Therapeutics to produce 6000 cancer treatments to patients by 2025.
