The Akron Difference

Since 2006, Akron Bio has been a leading manufacturer of ancillary materials for the cell and gene therapy industry. We’ve long understood that the supply of high-quality, well-documented ancillary materials are critical to the scale-up and commercialization of these life-saving therapies.

It’s why we pioneered the development of shelf-stable liquid cytokines to streamline manufacturing. Why we leverage virus-inactivated plasma to manufacture plasma-derived products that provide greater consistency, safety, and performance than our competitors. Why we’ve invested in our new state-of-the-art plasmid DNA manufacturing facility, addressing a critical industry bottleneck with best-in-class plasmid DNA for both ex vivo and in vivo applications. It’s why we’ve built a team of industry leaders and a scientific advisory board comprised of the leading thinkers and doers in this space.
