Research & Development

From first gram to first tonne

Route scouting, process optimisation and scale-up — carried out with customers under formal confidentiality, and handed to the same engineering team that will build the plant.

How we work

Development that ends in a running plant

Our mission commits us to meeting new challenges and demands with innovation and creativity. In development work that means something specific: we do not hand over a paper route. Process development runs alongside the engineering team that will scale it, so the constraints of our actual plants are designed in from the start.

Development for customers is ring-fenced under confidentiality. A large share of what we manufacture is molecules that will never appear in a public catalogue.

Route selection

Assessing feasible chemistry against our core competencies and your specification.

Laboratory development

Optimising yield, selectivity and impurity profile at bench scale.

Hazard assessment

Reaction calorimetry and process hazard review before any scale-up.

Scale-up

Kilo-scale then pilot campaigns, with our engineering team designing the commercial train.

Commercial supply

Validation batches, documentation and steady-state production.

Facilities

The R&D centre

Analytical and development infrastructure supporting route development and quality control.

To be suppliedR&D centre location and area, team size and qualifications, DSIR recognition status if applicable, and the analytical instrument list (GC, GC-MS, HPLC, NMR, titration, Karl Fischer, reaction calorimetry). Also kilo-lab and pilot-plant capacity. Technical buyers and auditors ask for exactly this list.
