MGS, a healthcare contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), has opened a new 300,000‑square‑foot manufacturing facility in Richfield, Wisconsin to support a global pharmaceutical partner’s expanding drug‑delivery platform.

At the center of the site’s advanced capabilities is 140,000 square feet of Class 8 cleanrooms engineered for high‑performance manufacturing, automation, and assembly of complex pharmaceutical drug‑delivery devices. Designed to meet increasing demand for rapid scale-up and high-volume production, the facility demonstrates how vertical integration and close customer collaboration can accelerate development.

The new site features a highly automated environment capable of producing hundreds of millions of sub‑assemblies annually. Phase one includes more than 100 injection molding machines, custom automation technologies, and high‑efficiency automated assembly lines—all built for scalability, quality, and precision. Phase two will expand on this foundation, doubling production capacity to support long‑term product line growth.

With the Richfield expansion, MGS now operates 12 facilities worldwide. The company’s integrated capabilities—including early‑stage design and development, advanced tooling, custom automation, precision medical manufacturing, and assembly—position it as a single‑source partner across North America and Europe. These end‑to‑end services are strengthened by deep regulatory expertise and a skilled workforce, ensuring speed, compliance, and confidence throughout the product lifecycle.

The new site will create 300 jobs across engineering, production, automation, quality, and mold maintenance, expanding access to high‑quality careers in advanced manufacturing. Roles will be available to both experienced professionals and individuals new to the industry, with full staffing expected by early 2027.

“MGS Richfield represents more than a new facility. It’s about people, innovation and long-term impact,” said Monica MacDonald, senior vice president of human resources at MGS. “We’re proud to support Richfield and the surrounding community by creating hundreds of jobs for seasoned manufacturers and those just starting their careers. This investment reflects our commitment to developing local talent, advancing critical technologies and creating strong career pathways that offer growth and opportunity in the communities we operate.”
