Biopharma Group is a specialist lyophilization (freeze-drying) CDMO. Since 1989 we have completed more than 4,000 freeze-drying projects for pharmaceutical, biotech and diagnostics companies in over 30 countries - developing liquid and freeze-dried drug products to the highest standards of quality, stability and cost-efficiency.
Unlike a generalist contract manufacturer, our entire team is built around freeze-drying science. We take your product from early formulation and proof of concept through freeze-drying cycle development, characterisation, scale-up and technical transfer, and into clinical manufacturing - with the same specialist scientists throughout. That focus is why companies from GSK and Teva to emerging biotechs bring their most difficult lyophilisation challenges to us.
Whether you need a full end-to-end freeze-drying CDMO partner or targeted support on a single cycle, we offer flexible contracts that reduce cold-chain logistics, improve batch yield and extend shelf life - protecting your product’s performance and your return on investment.
