The ampoules were since 2013 manufactured through injection molding in Portugal. The decision aims to achieve full control over the production process. The company emphasizes its commitment to meeting high-quality standards and addressing environmental concerns in the manufacturing process. The Rovipharm facility, acquired by SGH Healthcaring in 2018, has two ISO 8 certified cleanroom injection plastic workshops and a dedicated space for product decoration and assembly.
