The chemical or reagent itself is only part of the total package. If your needs differ from our catalog product offerings, why not take advantage of our custom chemicals service?
Custom chemical service
Custom synthesis and manufacturing
When you need a product that isn’t in our catalog, you can save time and resources by turning to Thermo Scientific Chemicals to meet your unique reagent, buffer, blend, and solvent needs. Whether you need distillation, blending, testing, packaging, or special delivery of custom reagents, Thermo Scientific Chemicals has the capacity to customize our products to meet your requirements.
Custom synthesis
A broad range of custom manufacturing capabilities to support your custom synthesis requirements.
Whether you’re looking to synthesize complex organic building blocks, optimize your synthesis, or develop a scalable route, we can provide the expertise and knowledge to support your project. Our extensive database of production methods for over 8,000 compounds has been developed through 50 years of experience in custom manufacturing.
Our custom synthesis capabilities include:
- A highly competent synthetic organic chemistry team whose knowledge is based on over 50 years of experience
- A strong pedigree in method development and scale-up that empowers our team to develop emerging technologies and to scale chemistries from gram to multi-kilogram quantities
- An ability to work with air-sensitive materials
- A diverse range of synthetic chemistry skills, including the ability to carry out reactions over temperature conditions ranging from -70 to 250 degrees centigrade
In addition, we provide full documentation and traceability to the International Organization for Standardization’s certification (ISO 9001), ensuring our compliance with specific quality management and operating systems standards.
Custom manufacturing
Our in-house manufacturing capabilities set us apart from our competitors.
We have been manufacturing products for many years, with an extensive database of production methods for over 8,000 products.
We offer synthesis capabilities from our facility located in Heysham, UK. Our two production laboratories on the site are staffed by highly qualified chemists and have the capability to produce a wide range of products from gram to hundred-kilogram quantities. Custom synthesis is backed by an RC1 reaction calorimeter. This, and our strong emphasis on method development, as well as a modern, well-equipped quality control laboratory, provide the detailed, reliable information needed for thorough scale-up and process safety studies that our customers can rely on.
Our specialty teams have the experience to match your requirements to the production site that will produce the materials, whether they are existing products or custom items. In addition, we offer flexible custom manufacturing services that produce quality products with the assurance of full confidentiality and can enter into Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) to protect intellectual property.
We employ advanced quality control systems for both in-process and final testing phases. The high standard of our modern quality control and assurance facilities is matched by the expertise of our experienced staff. The delivery of our world-class service is underpinned by effective communication and the strong, long-lasting relationships we develop with our custom partners.
Quality
As a global chemicals business, we operate a Quality and Environmental Management System that complies with the requirements of ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 14001:2015.
Our quality system is maintained to meet the ISO 9001 and 14001 standard requirements, giving credibility to our systems and processes and ensuring that our products and services meet our customers' expectations.
All critical working processes in our facilities are continuously monitored to secure documented evidence that the specified quality is achieved. In these areas, the data are analyzed, and improvement activities are decided using the Corrective and Preventive Action System (CAPA).
Many of our sites have received third-party accreditation.
Custom blends
If you are looking for ways to streamline your routine laboratory tasks, let us help.
Here are some reasons why this service may benefit your workflows:
Time management
- We offer blends at the right grade and specifications for your methods, assays, or production, allowing you to spend less time preparing for your experiments and to focus more on the science.
Product consistency
- Whatever your setup, consistency is key to repeatable, reproducible, and accurate results, whether you need to provide the data to the regulators or to ensure consistently high yields throughout the manufacturing process. We are set up to provide you with blends to a high degree of accuracy that are not able to be met in a standard laboratory.
Shelf life
- Let us support you with the shelf-life determination of your custom blends.
QC-tested
- With our custom blends, we provide certificates and analyses that have been tested by our quality control team.
Custom specifications
If you are performing an analysis and require specifications not available within our catalog range, get in touch with our experts to learn more.
Custom pack size, packaging, and labels
Have you seen the right catalog product but are struggling to find it in the size or packaging that is suitable for your laboratory? Or do you need extra information added to the label of the chemical? We have the capability to adapt our catalog products to your specific requirements.
