Danvers punches well above its weight as a life science address. The Cherry Hill Drive corridor — a short stretch of commercial park less than a mile from CleanTech’s own headquarters at 153 Andover Street — is home to three global life science manufacturers whose cleanroom environments span medical device precision assembly, single-use bioprocessing systems manufacturing, and semiconductor optics. Abiomed, acquired by Johnson & Johnson MedTech in 2022, maintains its global headquarters and manufacturing operations for the Impella® heart pump family at 22 Cherry Hill Drive — a 160,000 sq. ft. cardiac device manufacturing campus built to FDA Class II and III medical device standards. Medtronic operates its interventional vascular device operations at 37A Cherry Hill Drive, manufacturing catheter-based cardiovascular devices in cleanroom environments under continuous FDA oversight.

MilliporeSigma, the life science business of Merck KGaA, operates at 17–54 Cherry Hill Drive, manufacturing Mobius® single-use bioprocess systems and filtration devices used by pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturers worldwide — and was named Massachusetts Manufacturer of the Year by the state’s Legislative Manufacturing Caucus. ZEISS Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology operates a North American facility at 75 Sylvan Street in Danvers, supporting service, repair, and engineering operations for the EUV lithography optics and photomask systems that enable the world’s most advanced semiconductor chip production.
