Complex bioprocess plants, engineered as one
OCTO is Thewaico’s custom-engineered solution for turnkey and cGMP bioprocess installations.
Every project is designed from the ground up around the customer’s process, facility, regulatory requirements, and production objectives, rather than being adapted from a standard product.
From upstream and downstream processing to utilities, automation, and plant-wide supervision, OCTO brings multiple technologies together within one integrated architecture.
Thewaico can combine its own bioreactors and STRYPES software (integrating DCS and SCADA architectures) with media preparation systems, filtration systems, homogenizers, piping and valve networks, tanks, and third-party equipment such as centrifuges, and specialized process equipment. The result is a complete, tailor-made system managed through one engineering vision, one automation philosophy, and one coordinated project team.
