approach to supporting our agenda. We love to learn and genuinely find our
purpose and passion in continuously improving our organization.

We work with some of the following analyses: spectrophotometric analysis,
particle sizes, data color, HPLC (not much), etc.
We work from Sunday evening to Friday afternoon supporting the production
during the process. You take very much part of the standardizing of the
