Good manufacturing practice facilities

Unlocking the UK's life sciences manufacturing landscape

The UK wants to become a sciences powerhouse. Safe, highly controlled buildings to house the research, development and manufacture of new innovations and products is essential to achieving this goal.

There is a shortage of such facilities: but industry and investor attention are turning to these spaces.

In our latest cost model, we explore the design, regulatory and sustainability considerations for GMP facilities, and present a detailed cost breakdown for a hypothetical 3,600m² standalone site in the North West of England. 

Key topics covered in the article include:

  • Guidance on site selection, including links to freeports and R&D hubs
  • Design and fit out features, from cleanrooms to automation and process visibility
  • MEP and HVAC considerations to meet strict regulatory and environmental standards
  • Sustainability and retrofit opportunities to reduce carbon and cost
