How We Work

From Challenge
to Scale.

We don't just supply molecules. We engineer solutions alongside your team, sharing development risk and building long-term partnerships.

01

Feasibility

Fast, no-nonsense assessment of your synthesis challenge. We give honest answers—including when to say no.

02

Route Scouting

Expert-led evaluation of synthetic pathways to optimize yield, purity, and cost at scale.

03

Pilot Scale

50-200L glass-lined and stainless steel facilities to validate process before commercial commitment.

04

Commercial

Seamless transition to 1-8 KL production with full quality control and supply chain integration.
