L’expansion de 160 millions de dollars répond à la demande croissante des clients et à la sécurité de l’approvisionnement de trois distilleries.

Toronto, Ontario – 11 septembre 2023 – Greenfield Global Inc, fabricant et distributeur de renommée mondiale d’alcools de spécialité, de solvants et de solutions personnalisées, a achevé avec succès la modernisation de sa distillerie de Johnstown, qui a porté sa production globale d’alcool de haute pureté à près de 70 millions de gallons par an. Le projet d’expansion ayant été mis en service et validé, la distillerie est exceptionnellement efficace pour produire de l’alcool de haute pureté et a commencé à expédier de l’alcool à 190 et 200 degrés à ses clients par camions-citernes et wagons, ainsi qu’à ses installations de mélange et de conditionnement en aval aux États-Unis, au Canada et en Europe.

« La demande mondiale pour nos alcools de haute pureté dans des secteurs clés tels que les sciences de la vie, l’alimentation, les arômes et les parfums, les soins personnels et les boissons alcoolisées a dépassé notre capacité de production au cours des dernières années », a déclaré Howard Field, président-directeur général de Greenfield Global. « Notre augmentation de production de 30 millions de gallons nous permettra de fournir à nos clients leurs plans de croissance avec les normes de qualité les plus élevées qui font la réputation de Greenfield. En outre, compte tenu du rôle essentiel que nous jouons dans les chaînes d’approvisionnement de centaines de nos clients, la mise à niveau de l’expansion garantit une sécurité d’approvisionnement encore plus grande dans nos trois distilleries d’alcool de haute pureté – en particulier à un moment où les distilleries plus anciennes et moins viables économiquement dans l’industrie ferment. »

Les améliorations apportées à la distillerie Johnstown de Greenfield comprennent :

Un système de distillation d’alcool de qualité pharmaceutique et de boissons de 30 millions de gallons, à la pointe de l’industrie et à haut rendement, offrant aux clients l’éthanol le plus pur disponible dans le commerce.
Un laboratoire BPF de pointe garantissant des niveaux constants de qualité et de contrôle des produits.
Des chargements robustes de wagons et de camions-citernes permettant une production pure et mélangée au moment du remplissage, et garantissant que les expéditions parviennent aux clients aussi efficacement que possible.

De concert avec les installations de mélange et de conditionnement en aval de Greenfield aux États-Unis, au Canada et en Europe, la modernisation de l’alcool de haute pureté de Johnstown améliorera la logistique de livraison de la société dans l’ensemble des États-Unis et du Canada, ainsi que par bateau dans le monde entier.

« Notre modèle unique de « chaîne de contrôle » nous permet de retracer la livraison de notre alcool aux clients via le rail, les camions-citernes, les iso-conteneurs, les bacs, les fûts, les seaux, les biobags et autres, jusqu’au chargement de maïs livré à nos distilleries, ce qui est important pour bon nombre de nos clients. M. Field poursuit . « Greenfield s’est forgé une réputation de qualité et d’uniformité de ses produits, et la modernisation de Johnstown nous permettra de répondre à la croissance de nos clients, tout en ajoutant de nouveaux clients.

Greenfield remercie le gouvernement de l’Ontario pour son soutien au projet par l’entremise du Ontario Together Fund (OTF) du ministère du Développement économique, de la Création d’emplois et du Commerce (MEDJCT). Depuis sa création en 2008, la distillerie Johnstown de Greenfield fait partie intégrante de la croissance économique et du développement de la communauté locale. La modernisation a permis de créer 19 emplois à temps plein, ainsi que de nombreux emplois indirects dans la communauté de Johnstown, et constitue un nouvel engagement de Greenfield, qui soutient l’économie locale depuis plus de 15 ans.

L’investissement de 2 millions de dollars du gouvernement du Canada fait progresser la technologie « des déchets aux carburants » de l’entreprise

Le 24 janvier 2023 – Greenfield Global Inc, chef de file canadien dans la production d’alcool, de solvants et de biocarburants, a accueilli aujourd’hui M. Francis Drouin, secrétaire parlementaire du ministre de l’Agriculture et de l’Agroalimentaire, dans le laboratoire parrainé par Greenfield à l’Université de l’Alberta, pour lui faire part des progrès réalisés dans le cadre d’un projet de 2 millions de dollars visant à transformer des déchets agricoles en carburant propre, financé par Agriculture et Agroalimentaire Canada dans le cadre du volet recherche et innovation du Programme des technologies propres en agriculture (PTA).

Greenfield, en étroite collaboration avec la Faculté de génie de l’Université de l’Alberta, dirige le développement d’une nouvelle technologie propre qui convertira les déchets agricoles en carburant diesel renouvelable. Promouvant une économie agricole circulaire, cette technologie a le potentiel de réduire les émissions globales de gaz à effet de serre dans les secteurs de l’agriculture et du transport jusqu’à 90 % par rapport au carburant diesel d’origine fossile.

« Les solutions aux changements climatiques aident non seulement l’environnement, mais elles peuvent aussi améliorer l’économie et soutenir les producteurs – et des projets comme celui-ci en sont un excellent exemple « , a déclaré Francis Drouin, secrétaire parlementaire du ministre de l’Agriculture et de l’Agroalimentaire, au nom de l’honorable Marie-Claude Bibeau. « Cette nouvelle technologie permettra de convertir les déchets agricoles en carburant renouvelable, d’ajouter de la valeur pour les producteurs et de stimuler l’industrie énergétique, tout en réduisant les émissions de gaz à effet de serre.

« Notre collaboration en recherche et développement avec l’Université de l’Alberta pour produire du carburant diesel renouvelable à partir de déchets organiques permettra à l’agriculture, au camionnage, à la construction, aux génératrices de secours et à d’autres secteurs à forte consommation de combustibles fossiles de se décarboniser, ce qui est directement conforme aux plans d’action du Canada en matière de climat et aidera le Canada à atteindre des émissions nettes nulles d’ici 2050 « , a déclaré Howard Field, président et chef de la direction de Greenfield Global. « Greenfield décarbonise les émissions des véhicules légers au Canada depuis des décennies, en produisant de l’éthanol-carburant à partir de maïs industriel qui est mélangé à l’essence. Nous sommes déterminés à poursuivre le développement d’une technologie de pointe avec nos partenaires de la recherche, de l’agriculture et de l’industrie, et nous apprécions l’engagement et le soutien du gouvernement du Canada à l’égard des technologies climatiques novatrices et importantes.

Parmi les autres avantages de la technologie de Greenfield, citons le fait qu’elle ne s’intéresse pas aux matières premières et qu’elle utilise une approche en étoile pour la collecte des matières premières, la production de biobrut et le raffinage du biobrut en diesel renouvelable.

La Fédération canadienne de l’agriculture, la Fédération de l’agriculture de l’Ontario et les Grain Farmers of Ontario sont trois contributeurs clés qui ont appuyé le processus de demande de financement de Greenfield et ont aidé à rendre ce projet possible. La collaboration de toutes les parties concernées contribuera à la commercialisation réussie de cette technologie qui produira un carburant liquide durable, améliorera la gestion des déchets et réduira les émissions de gaz à effet de serre.

Greenfield Global is providing the life sciences sector with greater volumes of custom solutions under the Pharmco brand, to enhance supply chain confidence and reduce production lead times.

Brookfield, Connecticut (September 28, 2022) – To meet the increased demand from biopharma customers, Greenfield Global is tripling its production capacity for ethanol blends with water-for-injection (“WFI”) at its Brookfield, Connecticut plant from a 2,000 gallon tank to a total capacity just shy of 6,000 gallons.

Greenfield’s increased capacity provides greater confidence in supply chain security and increases production lead times for the laboratories, medical device manufacturers, and both large and small molecule pharmaceutical companies served around the globe.

“Greenfield Global has supplied essential alcohols, solvents and bio-processing materials from our North American operations to customers in the life science industry for more than three decades, helping them improve the health of people around the world,” said Howard Field, Greenfield Global President and CEO. “I am very excited to announce that our Ireland operation is now fully validated, and we are ready to supply these mission-critical products to our pharmaceutical and biotech customers with operations globally.”

The new facility uses Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for International Pharmaceutical Excipient (IPEC) guidelines for the highest quality Pharmco-branded products. The Portlaoise site houses dedicated blend tanks for ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, phosphoric acid, sodium hydroxide and Citric Acid water-based solutions. It features a closed-loop piping system that connects the production tank to a bulk loading dock and filling lines in an ISO 8 cleanroom.

“Thanks to our growing team of 30 dedicated employees, we were able to get the location up and running despite only opening up our 3,800-square-metre facility in July of 2020,” said Ken Finegan, Managing Director of Greenfield Global Ireland.

The facility is equipped with in-house quality control, a microbial laboratory, USP purified water and Water for Injection (WFI) generation. Plant equipment validation was completed through Design Qualification (DQ), Installation Qualification (IQ), Operational Qualification (OQ) and Performance Qualification (PQ). Products will be stored in a temperature-monitored and -controlled warehouse before finding their way to their final destination.

“We are beyond excited to supply new and existing life science customers with Pharmco-branded products, especially in times of globally damaged supply chains as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,” Finegan added.

NII to explore potential for hydrogen demonstration plant in Bruce County

(Port Elgin, Ontario) The Nuclear Innovation Institute (NII) has launched a new study into the role of nuclear power in supporting a growing hydrogen economy. The study will be the first of its kind in Canada to evaluate the technical viability and business case for hydrogen production from emissions-free nuclear power.

Work on the study will be led by Arcadis, supported by NII and project partners Bruce Power and Greenfield Global.

“Hydrogen is poised to play a key role in a net-zero future,” said David Campbell, Director of NII’s Bruce Power Centre for Next Generation Nuclear. “This project will provide a unique exploration of how nuclear power can provide the clean, affordable hydrogen that Ontario will need to continue decarbonizing our economy.”

The project continues the Centre’s research into the potential for hydrogen production and use in Ontario. Hydrogen holds remarkable promise as a source of clean energy with diverse applications and is projected by industry observers to become an increasingly important energy resource in the coming decades. This study will investigate the viability of a local pilot project to demonstrate the economics of the technology, in preparation for the rapid growth of the hydrogen economy.

The study builds on other local work, such as that done through the Bruce Innovates project, to explore the significant benefits a hydrogen project could bring to the region. These benefits include new export opportunities, new trade partnerships between local vendors, and the creation of high-paying jobs. Governments at all levels will also benefit from the study as they execute their own hydrogen strategies.

Bruce County is well positioned to advance the hydrogen economy due to its existing energy expertise, geographic advantages, and natural resources. This project will be another step in building the region’s reputation as the Clean Energy Frontier—a place where government and private sector alike forge the path to a net-zero future.

“Arcadis is honored to conduct this study on behalf of the Centre and its partners, and to play a part in driving green energy forward,” said Dr. Doug Chambers, vice president at Arcadis. “Hydrogen is a key component in designing sustainable solutions and exploring its potential will help propel a larger transition toward a net-zero emissions economy that works for future generations.”

« As the leading producer of low-carbon transportation fuel in Canada, we are delighted to explore the potential of making clean hydrogen in a joint venture with Bruce Power, which provides clean, low-cost electricity to every third home, hospital and business across Ontario,” said Howard Field, CEO of Greenfield Global. “Our two companies have been neighbours and proud corporate citizens of Bruce County for over 30 years.”

“Thanks to Bruce Power and the nuclear industry, Ontario has a deeply decarbonized electricity system,” said Mike Rencheck, Bruce Power’s President and CEO. “We can leverage that system as a competitive advantage to attract new investment in innovation and to decarbonize other sectors of the economy through the production and use of hydrogen as a clean fuel alternative.”

The Bruce Power Centre for Next Generation Nuclear is a think tank created to study the future of hydrogen, small modular reactors (SMRs) and fusion energy and understand how these technologies can be leveraged to achieve a net-zero economy.

Portlaoise 28^th July 2020 Greenfield Global Inc., a global leader in the production of ethanol, high-purity speciality alcohols, and solvents, will soon commence the commissioning phase of their new EU Manufacturing Headquarters in Portlaoise, Ireland.

The new 3,800 sq. metre facility, the company’s first outside North America, will produce Pharmco branded products serving Life Science customers globally and is located on IDA Ireland’s Business and Technology Park. This new facility will result in 75 new jobs over the next five years, while 170 constructions jobs were created during the build and fit-out phase of the project. The Portlaoise facility is one of the first NZEB (near zero energy buildings) to be completed under the new European standards. Project financing is provided by Allied Irish Banks and is supported by the Irish Government through IDA Ireland.

Greenfield Global, which has its headquarters in Toronto, Canada, has operations in 12 locations across North America, manufacturing and distributing a wide range of products to customers in over 50 countries.

Greenfield Global President and CEO Howard Field said “Greenfield Global has been supplying Pharmco branded mission-critical alcohols, solvents and bio-processing materials to Life Science companies across the globe for more than two decades. Until now, those products have been produced, packaged and delivered from our distilleries and manufacturing facilities in North America. Today, I am very excited to announce that our Portlaoise Ireland plant construction is essentially completed and we are excited to enter the commissioning phase of the facility in preparation to commence the validation program.”

Managing Director of Greenfield Global Ireland Ken Finegan said “This achievement for Greenfield erecting a complex facility with an aggressive timeline in normal settings are something to celebrate and be proud of. The fact that our onsite team, DPS Engineering and all of our contractors had to very quickly change protocol to account for COVID-19, launch and manage a new set of health and safety standards, while still moving this project forward is a feat. All while maintaining Greenfield’s standards of excellence. We are encouraged to move this project to the next phase and will soon be able to service our existing and new customers with Pharmco branded products, including pharmaceutical companies, from Europe and beyond. Greenfield’s manufacturing headquarters in Portlaoise will become a critical part of the Life Science ecosystem in Europe and beyond, especially considering the improvements we can make to globally damaged supply chains caused by COVID-19.”

Minister of State Department of Finance with responsibility for Financial Services, Credit Unions and Insurance Sean Fleming TD. who attended today’s announcement, said: “This investment is a very positive development for the Midlands region and is further evidence of the benefits of locating in the regions outside Dublin where there is access to talent, lower operating costs, and higher staff retention rates. Greenfield Global’s decision to locate their new EU manufacturing headquarters here is not only a sign of the capacity and capabilities that the Midlands provides, but also a sign of Ireland’s expertise and our strong and growing life sciences ecosystem. I would like to welcome Greenfield Global to the area and I look forward to working with them over the coming years.”

CEO of IDA Ireland Martin Shanahan said “I wish to congratulate Greenfield Global on reaching this milestone – the establishment of its EU Manufacturing Headquarters in Portlaoise – which is also Greenfield Global’s first facility outside of North America. Greenfield Global’s presence in the Midlands is of considerable benefit to the economy of the region and enhances Ireland’s vibrant EIT sector. I wish the team here and in North America continued success with the ongoing support of IDA Ireland.”

Greenfield is commencing with its validation program and customer audits starting August 2020 which can be scheduled by contacting Ken Finegan, Managing Director at Ken.Finegan@greenfield.com.

Longhorn has selected Greenfield Global’s Pharmco brand high purity reagent alcohol to quickly distribute its PrimeStore MTM® worldwide.

BROOKFIELD, Conn., June 15, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Longhorn Vaccines & Diagnostics, an innovative molecular tool, assay and vaccine development company, and Pharmco, Greenfield Global’s popular brand of specialty alcohols and high-purity solvents, have combined to rapidly accelerate coronavirus testing and detection which are critical to combating the global COVID-19 pandemic.

In the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak, most of the COVID-19 testing requires sample collection devices, such as viral transport mediums, that keep the virus alive within the sample and require refrigeration, special shipping and biosafety containment. Unlike standard methods for collecting and transporting samples, Longhorn’s PrimeStore MTM® safely deactivates pathogens at the point of collection and stabilizes RNA and DNA, allowing enhanced point of care and ambient temperature transport for laboratory-based molecular testing and characterization with no need for special containment facilities.

« Safe and robust collection of high-quality samples that can be processed on standard lab benches using conventional qPCR have enabled rapid detection from patients and assisted in combating the global COVID19 pandemic, » said Dr. Luke T. Daum, Chief Scientific Officer at Longhorn Vaccines and Diagnostics and the inventor of PrimeStore MTM®. « What makes PrimeStore MTM® so important is that once an oral or nasal swab is collected, the viruses and bacteria from the sample are lysed/inactivated, the RNA and DNA are stabilized for safe transport and processing outside of BSL-2/3 laboratories. »

« Formulating solvents that meet our customers’ criteria allows us to help them make incredible products and meet the demands of the market, » said Steve DiBenedetto, Senior Vice President of Sales & Operations. « Our Pharmco branded products are blended and packaged at our GMP-compliant facilities operating under an ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management System which ensures a high quality, consistent product. Longhorn Vaccines and Diagnostic Testing’s innovation is remarkable. We value their trust in our top-quality products, our security of supply, and our reliable supply chain, which allows us to help support millions of critical tests worldwide. » PrimeStore MTM® is an FDA-cleared collection medium for respiratory samples, including SARS-CoV-2 virus and has emerged to become a critical tool in the fight against COVID19.

About Longhorn Vaccines and Diagnostics
Longhorn Vaccines & Diagnostics is an innovative molecular tool, assay and vaccine development company focused on serving unmet critical needs in both developed and developing nations. Longhorn’s core product, PrimeStoreMolecular Transport Medium® (MTM), is a patented, FDA cleared, state-of-the-art ambient temperature molecular diagnostic collection and transport device that can help governments, global health organizations and drug manufacturers improve the diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases such as mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) and Influenza. Unlike standard devices for collecting and transporting TB samples, PrimeStore MTM® is the first molecular transport device that can safely deactivate pathogens and stabilize RNA and DNA, allowing enhanced point of care and ambient temperature transport for laboratory based molecular testing and characterization. Longhorn is based in Bethesda, Maryland with the research and development facility in San Antonio, Texas.

TORONTO, le 22 mai 2020 – Greenfield Global Inc., leader mondial de la production d’éthanol, d’alcools de spécialité de grande pureté et de solvants, a annoncé aujourd’hui la création du Fonds, Greenfield a cette cause à cœur, destiné à aider les organisations caritatives et les groupes en première ligne locaux dans le contexte de la pandémie de COVID-19.

« Nous vivons une période incroyablement difficile et, chez Greenfield, nous nous engageons à répondre aux besoins de nos communautés », déclare Howard Field, président-directeur général de Greenfield Global. « La pandémie a un effet dévastateur sur la santé sociale et économique d’un grand nombre de personnes et de communautés. Jusqu’à maintenant, les gouvernements ont travaillé avec acharnement pour venir en aide à la population, mais nous croyons que c’est au tour des entreprises qui en ont les moyens de contribuer à l’effort collectif. Nous avons donc créé le Fonds, Greenfield a cette cause à cœur, pour soutenir les organisations locales qui viennent en aide aux personnes les plus touchées par la pandémie de COVID-19 dans les communautés où nous vivons et travaillons. »

Depuis le début de cette crise mondiale, Greenfield a joué un rôle de premier plan dans l’approvisionnement de l’alcool nécessaire à la production de désinfectant pour les mains, utilisé dans la lutte contre la maladie mortelle. Les dons effectués par l’entremise du Fonds, Greenfield a cette cause à cœur, serviront à soutenir les organismes locaux qui fournissent des services essentiels, tels que l’aide alimentaire, l’hébergement d’urgence et l’appui aux hôpitaux ainsi qu’aux travailleurs de première ligne.

Depuis la mi-avril, la compagnie étudie les demandes envoyées par les comités locaux d’employés. Le Fonds, Greenfield a cette cause à cœur, a accordé 41 subventions d’un montant total de 400 000 $ à des organismes de bienfaisance enregistrés au service des 11 collectivités dans lesquelles les employés de Greenfield sont fiers d’habiter et de travailler, que ce soit au Canada, aux États-Unis ou en Irlande.

TORONTO, March 24, 2020 – Greenfield Global Inc., a global leader in ethanol, high-purity specialty alcohols and solvents production, has been producing and shipping vital alcohols and solvents at a record pace to combat the worldwide spread of COVID-19 since the beginning of the pandemic.

New Packaging Option Expands High Purity Solvent & Ethanol Portfolio and Reduces Customer Waste.

Brookfield, CT, 2^nd April 2019— Pharmco, a brand of Greenfield Global, today announced it has expanded its portfolio options to include Stainless Steel Pressurized Vessels at the company’s Brookfield, CT, USA facility. This new portfolio option further strengthens Pharmco’s unique production space, improves chemical supply chain and quality control systems, and allows customers to reduce their raw material waste.

Each fleet is dedicated to a customer and ensures a consistent and reliable supply of material reducing supply chain risk. The tightly enclosed system reduces the potential for product contamination and the pressurized environment is perfect for making custom formulations capable of meeting the most stringent custom specifications.

Pharmco’s steel fleet options carry an 8-10-week start-up time and allow customers to connect directly to a research or manufacturing process; shortening workflow throughput time. It also saves time associated with repeat solvent testing and rinsing bottles leading to reduced expenses associated with disposing of hazardous materials.

“Greenfield is constantly innovating and strives to help our customers do the same,” said Greenfield Global President and CEO Howard Field. “These fleets will help our customers make their business more efficient while reducing their environmental impact. This is especially valuable when it comes to high volume, high-quality, research and development.”

“The pressurized fleets should come as welcome news to our customers in life sciences, who have been asking for this option. For the first time, customers can purchase pure ethanol in a pressurized fleet, while also receiving dedicated sales rep support on their ACS/USP, HP/LC, and LC/MS returnable fleet demands,” said Steve DiBenedetto SVP of Sales and Operations.

The pressurized fleets are available immediately for Pharmco’s full solvent portfolio including multiple grades of Pure and Denatured Ethyl Alcohol, Acetone, Acetonitrile, Activator, Cap A, Cap B, Deblock, Dichloromethane, Dimethylformamide, DMSO, Ethyl Acetate, Methanol, MTBE, N-Heptane, n-propyl Alcohol, Oxidizer, Piperidine 99%, Pyridine, Reagent Grade Alcohol, THF and Toluene. Custom blending and testing is also available upon request.
