IMPORTANT MESSAGE
Like many other companies and institutions around the world, we are experiencing interference with some of our systems within the TNT network.
We are implementing remediation steps as quickly as possible. We have implemented operational contingencies to continue to complete collections from customers with scheduled stops. For customers who do not have a regular stop, collection should be arranged via our customer service centers.
Customers may experience delays in the transit of shipments, particularly inter-continental or non-EU European delivery, as we work to remediate our systems. Additionally, if customers do not have the facility for self-labeling, they may also experience delays.
We are not able to collect shipments of dangerous goods at this time.
We regret any inconvenience to our customers.

From Development to Commercialisation
In recent years, as a consequence of the EU Paediatric Regulation (EC1901/2006 and EC1902/2006) and the US requirement for inclusion of Paediatric Investigation Plans (PIP) in all new Marketing Authorisations, Almac has experienced a significant increase in client demand for development and commercialization of paediatric dosage forms.
