Resolian Sandwich UK Analytical Sciences Lab Tour

Resolian Sandwich Lab | Analytical Sciences Virtual Tour

Situated at Discovery Park in Sandwich, Kent, Resolian’s Sandwich lab is a dedicated analytical and materials science facility supporting pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical development from discovery through to commercial manufacture.

This virtual tour takes you inside the lab across four key capability areas:

Physical Properties — particle size, count, shape, density, and physicochemical characterisation using instruments including Malvern Mastersizer 3000, Sympatec HELOS, and SMS iGC-SEA.

Analytical — separation science and wet chemistry, including UPLC-MS, HPLC with DAD/FLD, and Karl Fischer titration, delivering bespoke, phase-appropriate methods to underpin your CMC programme.

Solid State Characterisation — advanced solid form and polymorphic analysis using Bruker PXRD, Perkin Elmer FTIR and DSC, FE-SEM, and dynamic vapour sorption.

Foreign Matter Analysis — forensic contamination identification combining light and electron microscopy, SEM-EDX, and FTIR microscopy to support root cause investigations and process remediation.

Our scientists bring deep expertise across pharmaceuticals, medical devices, personal care, agrochemicals, food and beverage, and more.
