Sordoni Construction Helping to Build the Future of Medicine

CHESTER, N.J.--Sordoni Construction Company was selected as the construction manager for the Hemispherx Biopharma, Inc. facility enhancement project at their manufacturing site in New Brunswick, NJ. These improvements will enable Hemispherx to provide a high volume, more cost effective manufacturing process for Alferon N Injection® and Alferon® LDO. Alferon N Injection® is Hemispherx's injectable formulation of natural interferon which is approved by the FDA for the treatment of certain categories of genital warts. Alferon® LDO is an experimental therapeutic being developed for multiple clinical indications including prevention, prophylaxis and treatment of influenza.

Sordoni will oversee and manage this multi-million dollar renovation of the existing manufacturing suite to a more efficient, less labor intensive up-graded process. The project includes full engineering studies, capital improvements, system upgrades and introduction of building management systems to enhance production. The main building is approximately 43,000 square feet and includes process piping, vessels, a bioreactor, class 100 hoods and a cold room. New utilities, including WFI, clean steam, process chiller and an emergency generator will also be added. In order to make the space for the new process suite, an existing mezzanine level will be demolished.
