Partners

NiTech Solutions works in partnership with a number of Contract Research Organisations (CROs) to allow our customers to carry out feasibility studies or proof of concept as a potential precursor to renting or purchasing a NiTech Solutions unit.

Our partner CROs are strategically located and each has at least one NiTech Solutions Continuous Reactor/Crystallizer unit, combined with application expertise. Where required, NiTech Solutions provide direct application support and guidance for projects carried out by our partner CROs. Work scope and commercial arrangements between a customer and CRO are normally made directly between the parties.

Continuous Manufacturing and Crystallization (CMAC) Centre of Excellence

NiTech Solutions technology was the inspiration for the new EPSRC-funded Centre for Innovative Manufacturing in Continuous Manufacturing and Crystallization (CMAC). This is being led by the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, together with the Universities of Bath, Cambridge, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Heriot-Watt and Loughborough.

Industry Support

Provided by industry partners that include GlaxoSmithKline, AstraZeneca, Novartis, Fujifilm, Croda International, Genzyme and others.

NiTech Solutions technology supports CMAC to:

  • Enable change from batch to fully continuous manufacturing processes for high-value chemical products.
  • Produce better chemical and pharmaceutical products, at lower cost and more sustainably through transformational change in how particles are manufactured.
  • Increase manufacturing competitiveness via reducing costs and enabling the creation of higher-value products.

Centre For Process Innovation (CPI)

CPI is a technology innovation centre that works with universities, small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and multi-national businesses to help them overcome innovation challenges and bring new products and processes to market. Operating across a range of complementary technologies; formulation, biologics, printable electronics and industrial biotechnology and biorefining, CPI supports companies to help them develop, prove, prototype and scale-up next-generation formulated products across a range of market sectors.

CPI is working with NiTech Solutions on the Innovate UK-funded project, Flex_Manu, providing expertise in scale-up and process development using continuous oscillatory baffle reactor (COBR) technology for surfactant production.

La Maison Européenne Des Procédés Innovants (MEPI)

MEPI is a technology innovation platform located in Toulouse, France, promoting green chemistry on an industrial scale. MEPI has unique know-how in testing novel chemical equipment for continuous intensified processes, helping companies in the pharma, fine & specialty chemicals and cosmetic industries to implement flow chemistries, crystallizations and formulations.

MEPI has developed successfully a significant number of chemical reactions, precipitations, particle size engineering, nanoparticle and grafting generations, using NiTech Solutions continuous oscillatory baffled reactor (COBR). This COBR is a very efficient troubleshooting tool to solve challenging chemical production issues. It is available at MEPI for testing your chemistries.
