Technologies

We are a Poland-based CDMO and manufacturer of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

High Potent

As an EU-based Contract Development and Manufacturing Organization (CDMO) and supplier of active pharmaceutical ingredients, we are advancing our technology capabilities with an Occupational Exposure Limit (OEL) as low as 10 ng/m³ (OEB 6).

Our new capabilities enable GMP and FDA-approved kilo-scale production, offering batch sizes of up to 1.5 kg. This facility features dedicated Analytical Development Laboratories (ADL) and Process Development Laboratories (PDL) to ensure comprehensive support for all production phases. The design incorporates state-of-the-art isolator technology to ensure the safety of both personnel and products, along with industry-standard secondary containment solutions integrated into the infrastructure.

We have secured future capacity expansion through both internal enhancements and external partnerships, with the goal of doubling our production capacity. This strategic approach will enable us to support any future business opportunities.
