Once your extraction, fermentation, or other upstream processes in place, we can support all downstream processing needs to make your product.  

Downstream processing is the process of maximising the recovery and purity of your biological compounds, so the bioactive is ready for formulation. 

As our downstream processing capabilities are co-located with our scale-up fermentation and extraction facilities, we can immediately streamline projects to harvest, separate, concentrate, and isolate your target compounds.
