Process Development

Saltigo has been performing process development and scale-up for 140 years. 

At our Leverkusen (D) location we have over 40 process development chemists in 11 laboratories.

They are supported by 2 dedicated scale-up laboratories and a process engineering laboratory for determining critical process parameters.

Process development is also performed at the Saltigo facility in Redmond (USA). Over 20 chemists are ready to develop your synthesis or process in modern laboratories.

The results from these teams are striking: Each year Saltigo scales up over 100 new chemical transformations to the 100 kg level or higher. 

Depending on your needs and the needs of your process, Saltigo offers:

  • Route selection
  • Process development with focus on scalability and technical feasibility
  • Process optimization
  • Risk and safety assessment and hazard analysis
  • Thorough development of waste concepts
  • Design of processes and equipment in close collaboration with our engineering department

We are capable of starting with a process at virtually any state of development.
