Preformulation
Prior to embarking on a formulation design program, we analyse the API for its physicochemical, biopharmaceutical, particulate and bulk properties. In doing so, we adhere to our philosophy of phase-appropriateness, meaning we collect increasingly detailed information as a compound progresses through development.
API-sparing
Our miniaturized protocols enable the collection of detailed information while consuming only mg-quantities of API
Phase-appropriate
We work closely with our customers to understand their needs and collect the right data at the right time.

Rapid turnaround
Our agility and specialization enable us to work faster than generalist CDMOs. No work package is too small for us.
