R & D > Custom Synthesis
Hikal undertakes custom synthesis of key intermediates and active substances for innovator companies worldwide. We have the expertise in synthesizing diverse classes of molecules and offer gram to ton quantities in a cost-effective manner.

Kilo Lab
Our Class 100,000 cGMP Kilo Lab manufactures APIs and intermediates required during drug development. The state-of-the-art facility includes stainless steel, glass and glass lined reactors from 20L to 100L. This facility offers capabilities for reactions between -50°c and +280°c. The powder processing facilities include centrifuge, vacuum tray drier and multi mill. A 50L high vacuum distillation system is provided to isolate liquid products.

Pilot Plant
Our Class 100,000 cGMP Pilot Plant offers scale up capabilities and provides validation quantities required for DMF filings. This state-of-the-art plant includes stainless steel and glass lined reactors from 100L to 1,000L and undertakes multi-step synthesis. The plant is PLC controlled and the powder processing facilities include stainless steel and halar lined centrifuges, fluidized bed dryer, nauta dryer, multimill and airjet mill.
