Commercial API manufacturing built around your needs

We understand that each API development process requires a unique approach. By tailoring our commercial API manufacturing services to your specific requirements – incorporating our years of successful production experience – we can help you to achieve commercial-scale supply on a timeline that meets your needs.

Our state-of-the-art facilities allow our commercial API services to truly work around you, creating a collaborative environment you simply won’t find with other API manufacturers.

Our processes involve:

  • Contained environments (isolation, solids handling)
  • Low-temperature modules
  • Solvent recovery plants
  • Reactor volumes from 160-16000L
  • Low (-90C) to high (180C) temperature reactions
  • High-pressure reactions
  • On-site process development services and analytical support

Supporting all API phases

To achieve robust and efficient process qualification for scale-up, we use modern tools such as in-process sampling and controls, automated workstations, statistical software and reaction calorimetry.

We focus on cost-competitive manufacturing on an industrial scale. This is achieved by minimizing the number of unit operations of chemical processes, as well as specialized quality control and quality assurance departments.

We also maintain high containment trains in dedicated highly potent small-scale API manufacturing to commercial-scale facilities at both of our API sites, Visp (CH) and Nansha (CN).

Our plant network operates to stringent global quality standards and has an excellent regulatory inspection record – inclusive of FDA, SwissMedic, MHRA & ANVISA.
