Noida

Center for Advanced PR&D and Scale-up, Noida, India

The Noida facility enhances our discovery chemistry and early-phase scale up capabilities through an integrated infrastructure designed for comprehensive small molecule development. The site supports both research and manufacturing needs, with co located AR&D, PR&D labs and purpose built pilot plant operations.

Facility Overview

  • Integrated research and development and scale‑up ecosystem, enabling a seamless transition from early research to gram-to‑kilogram scale production.
  • Complements the Chemistry Research Innovation Centre (CRIC) in Greater Noida, contributing to a network of 1,300+ scientists across locations.
  • Developed to support a broad range of fee‑for‑service (FFS) and FTE collaboration-driven programs for biotech and pharmaceutical partners.

Infrastructure & Capabilities

  • 40000 sq ft of advanced R&D space combining process research and development labs with two dedicated pilot plant blocks.
  • 16 reactors ranging from 20L to 250L, supporting material generation from hundreds of grams up to 25 kg.
  • Multiple manufacturing lines optimized for small‑molecule synthesis and early-phase scale-up requirements.
  • Designed with future growth in mind, with the capacity to expand up to fourfold based on project and client demand.

Functional Strengths

  • Early-phase route scouting, process optimization, and scalable chemistry development.
  • Flexible infrastructure suitable for both exploratory discovery chemistry and systematic scale-up studies.
  • Operational alignment with global quality and safety standards.
  • Risk‑assessed scale‑up through structured safety gate reviews
  • Integrated, SOP‑driven operations ensuring reliable delivery
