Process understanding and reaction optimisation
Efficient catalytic processes are the key to reducing costs, improving selectivity, and ensuring reliable scale-up. Our experts work with you to refine every aspect of your transformation, delivering performance and value at every stage.
CatLab can assist you in the following areas to improve your process:
- Lowering costs by optimising catalyst use.
- Provide greater selectivity for enhanced efficiency.
- Ensure scalable success from lab to production.
Custom catalyst manufacturing
When off-the-shelf catalysts don’t meet your performance needs, we help you unlock new possibilities through custom development and scale-up.
Whether you’re working with promising early-stage hits, small-quantity literature catalysts, or next-generation technologies, our team can support you in transforming these into commercially viable solutions.
Custom catalyst development and commercial scale manufacturing capabilities include:
- Custom development and manufacturing of bespoke catalysts.
- Dedicated R&D teams spanning a range of catalytic technologies.
- Manufacturing of complex metal catalysts and enzymes from lab-scale to global manufacturing facilities.
- Metal management with a range of options to securely purchase platinum group metals.
