The 7,300 square foot facility features a clean-room manufacturing environment and environmentally controlled test labs

SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESSWIRE / March 16, 2021 / Modular Medical, Inc. (OTCQB:MODD), a development-stage company focused on the next generation of easy to use, affordable insulin pumps to expand access to high end insulin delivery technology to a large, underserved portion of the diabetes market, today announced it has relocated to a new corporate headquarters building in San Diego CA. The larger facilities accommodate expanded staffing to enable the increased level of R&D and testing activity necessary to support the company's 510(k) submission later this year.

"A clean room environment for low-volume component manufacturing adds a valuable dimension to support our R&D efforts," said Marc Goldman, Vice President of R&D at Modular Medical. "Additionally, access to an in-house environmentally controlled test lab gives our engineers capability to run on-demand accuracy validation studies. This gives us an important efficiency we wouldn't otherwise see," he added.

By choosing to remain in the greater San Diego area, an established center of medical device and healthcare innovation, the company maintains access to a rich talent pool of professionals across an array of technical disciplines. The company currently has a staff of 20 and plans to fill several additional key positions in the coming months.

"I'm pleased to see how much we've grown as a team and as a company," said Paul DiPerna, the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Modular Medical. "Our move came at a pivotal time in the development of our technology. With the completion of our design and ongoing validation of our interface and feature set, we are now well positioned to begin the extensive testing and usability that regulatory bodies require."
