Building the Future of Life Sciences
In the fast-evolving world of life sciences, the demand for cutting-edge infrastructure has never been greater. From biotechnology laboratories and pharmaceutical plants to cleanrooms and vivariums, every inch of a life sciences facility must meet rigorous standards. It’s about shaping environments where innovation, research, and healing thrive.
At CIC Construction Group, we understand that these facilities are platforms for breakthroughs. With 42 years of experience, CIC has earned its place as a trusted construction partner in the life sciences sector. We deliver complex facilities that support the future of biotech, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and scientific research.
A Legacy Rooted in Life Sciences
Since our founding, CIC has delivered mission-critical facilities that meet stringent technical, regulatory, and operational demands. We’ve partnered with global pharmaceutical and biotech leaders, to mention some—Merck, Sartorius, Amgen, Johnson & Johnson, and Terumo—to build specialized spaces where science meets precision.
Our facilities are built in collaboration with architects, engineers, and end users to comply with FDA, cGMP, and ISO standards, support complex workflows, and integrate future-ready technologies.

Why Life Sciences Construction Requires Specialized Expertise
Today’s life sciences facilities must evolve to support rapidly advancing therapies and technologies. Key industry trends influencing construction include:
- Personalized Medicine: Requires modular layouts, secure data integration, and cleanroom adaptability
- Radioligand & ADC Therapies: Demand ultra-clean, highly controlled manufacturing zones
- AI-Driven R&D: Necessitates robust data infrastructure, advanced cooling systems, and hybrid lab designs
- CDMO/CMO Evolution: Calls for agile facilities that support diverse, small-batch production
Meeting these needs requires more than technical know-how, it demands a partner who understands regulatory complexity, scientific nuance, and future-forward thinking. That’s where CIC delivers.
