Little known to the general public, Baccinex was founded in 1999 by the Bausch family, historically active in the machinery industry. The company specializes in a niche market, namely the contract manufacturing of small batches of freeze-dried or liquid sterile products. She handles about 50 to 60 different clinical projects each year. The firm also produces commercial drugs in small quantities, in particular for orphan diseases, an activity which represents approximately a third of its turnover which is not communicated.
