The companies are investing $600+ million in chromatography resins; $400+ million in cell culture media; $300+ million in single-use technologies; and $200+ million for continuing expansion work in Cytiva and Pall Corporation’s sites across China and the rest of the AsiaPacific region, Europe, and the US. Overall, the companies are planning to hire 2000 people over the next two years to support growth.
