- TEIJIN REGENET Co., Ltd.
-
Teijin Regenet was established on August 1, 2023, as a wholly owned subsidiary of Teijin through a company split, succeeding the rights and obligations related to Teijin’s regenerative medicine CDMO business. This corporate reorganization enables Teijin Regenet to execute its regenerative medicine CDMO strategy with greater agility and flexibility. Furthermore, under a licensing agreement between Teijin and J-TEC executed in April 2023, Teijin Regenet delivers well-established CDMO services by leveraging J-TEC’s expertise and know-how.

TEIJIN CDMO's strength
Global Infrastructure and Strategic Partnerships Supporting Cell & Gene Therapy / Regenerative Medicine *As of November 2025
- Through strategic partnerships with TFBS Bioscience, Inc. (Taiwan) and Mediridge Co., Ltd. (Japan), we have established a robust viral vector supply framework and a comprehensive range of related testing services, supporting accelerated development of ex vivo gene therapies.
- Through strategic collaborations with leading regenerative medicine CDMOs—including National RESILIENCE (USA), Hilleman Laboratories (Singapore), and Cell Therapies (Australia)—we have built a global manufacturing platform compliant with international regulatory and quality standards. This enables the commercialization and supply of regenerative medicine products not only in Japan, but also with a view toward global market expansion.

"Kashiwa-no-ha Facility", TEIJIN REGENET
- "Kashiwa-no-ha Facility" serves as a core manufacturing function in Kashiwa-no-ha regenerative medicine platform in collaboration with National Cancer Center, Mitsui-Fudosan, and J-TEC. This platform provides one-stop service from early research and development to manufacturing of clinical supply and business strategy with seed holders of Cell & Gene Therapy / Regenerative Medicine, so that we can contribute to producing innovative medical solutions for the diseases with unmet medical needs.
- The site is adjacent to the National Cancer Center East Hospital and it enables to provide geographical and functional benefits for the R&D consortium.
"Iwakuni Factory", TEIJIN REGENET
- "Iwakuni Factrory" provide the integrated manufacturing services through the seamless linkage with Kashiwa-no-ha Facility, from scale-up/scale-out of clinical supply manufacturing to commercial supply manufacturing. We can support various needs of manufacturing such as gene transduction, mass-scale cell culture, and tissue culture.
- The Teijin Group has experience in developing unique pharmaceuticals and medical devices in-house, establishing high-quality production technologies, and commercial supply chain in Japan and overseas. We provide commercial manufacturing services by fully utilizing well established know-hows.
One-stop solution for Cell & Gene Therapy / Regenerative Medicine from development to commercialization

A One-Stop Ecosystem for Regenerative Medicine Development and Commercialization, Powered by Strategic Partnerships
- In July 2025, Teijin Regenet, in collaboration with Toho Holdings and ITOCHU Corporation, established a Regenerative Medicine Ecosystem that provides end-to-end, one-stop support—from R&D through commercialization—for regenerative medicine products.
Through this ecosystem, biotech ventures can efficiently access high-quality, integrated services, enabling accelerated development timelines and earlier market entry.

Japan Tissue Engineering Co., Ltd. (Located Gamagori)
Regulatory approval of the five regenerative medicine products, the largest number in Japan *As of November 2025
- As a pioneer in regenerative medicine, we have cultivated our capability of development, production, and sales, and established the mutual trust relationships of with the regulatory authorities in Japan through the approvals of the multiple products.
