Learn about Takeda in Round Lake

Takeda's manufacturing facility in Round Lake, Illinois, is an integral part of Takeda’s Plasma Network. Close in proximity to both Chicago and Milwaukee, the state-of-the-art facility specializes in producing Flexbumin through the GALAXY manufacturing process. Flexbumin is albumin, contained in a flexible pouch, for patients who experience a loss of plasma volume from situations such as trauma, surgery, blood loss and burns. The flexible packaging reduces the risk of breakage and enhances compatibility with hospital inventory storage systems, allowing the solution to be stored at room temperature. Round Lake supplies its product to patients all over the world, with key markets in the U.S., China, and India.
