    LANGHORNE, Pa., Jan. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NEXGEL, Inc. (“NEXGEL” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: NXGL), a leading provider of medical and over-the-counter (OTC) products including ultra-gentle, high-water-content hydrogels for healthcare and consumer applications, today announced a 12,000 square foot expansion of its CG Converting and Packaging facility in Granbury, Texas. The expansion will support the expected growth in product demand from its new strategic partnerships as well as continued growth of NEXGEL’s own branded products.

    The expansion is expected to be completed during the second quarter of 2024. The expansion is funded by the landlord and lease terms will be adjusted to reflect the increase in square footage. The Company is purchasing new automation equipment, which will be financed, to support the expected growth in product demand.

    Adam Levy, CEO of NEXGEL, commented, “Ahead of the increase in demand we expect from important partnerships like AbbVie and STADA in the summer of 2024, we are pleased to find a mutually beneficial agreement with our landlord at our Texas facility. This expansion will allow us to handle the expected increased volumes of material, provide more efficient fulfilment and shipping services, and increase our overall capacity and efficiency. We have already broken ground and expect to complete the project and be operational well ahead of when we expect these orders to scale.”
