Organic & Polymer Chemistry

Chemistry Expertise that Powers Formulation Innovation

Our Haverhill, UK, facility’s organic and polymer chemistry capabilities form the backbone of many of our most advanced spray drying and particle engineering solutions. These disciplines are crucial to the development and manufacture of APIs, polymer-based materials, and intermediates for innovative applications. Backed by a PhD-led team and decades of commercial manufacturing experience, we transform complex molecules and materials into scalable, GMP-compliant products.

High-Volume Continuous Industrial Flow Chemistry

Codis combines decades of process engineering experience with advanced flow chemistry expertise to deliver scalable, efficient, and safe continuous manufacturing. Our high-volume systems enable precise reaction control, faster optimization, and cleaner, higher-yielding processes, enabling consistent quality and sustainable production at commercial scale.  Central to these capabilities are our LIST twin-shaft continuous kneader-reactors, integrated into our pilot and commercial-scale production plants. These reactors offer exceptional mixing and kneading behavior, effective self-cleaning properties, and efficient renewal of reaction boundary layers while maintaining low shear for high-viscosity, difficult-to-mix reactants and products.

Increase product quality and yield

More precise control of key reaction parameters such as mixing, heating, and residence time leads to better product yield and impurity control

Rapid analysis, optimization, and scale-up of chemical reactions

Testing a range of reaction variables is faster in flow processes and uses less substrate and reagent. Real-time analysis provides immediate feedback on the effect each variable has on reaction performance

Modular, customizable workflow

Flow chemistry equipment is highly modular, making it easy to configure equipment to meet the requirements of specific reactions

Improved process safety

Flow chemistry makes it significantly safer to handle  hazardous or corrosive reagents and perform potentially dangerous reactions

Pilot- and Commercial-Scale Production

Codis scales chemical processes from lab to large-scale commercial production with efficiency. Two state-of-the-art plants use cutting-edge flow chemistry for synthesis and purification, seamlessly integrating with spray drying for final isolation. Sustainability drives our operations, with proven success in implementing green, efficient, and resource-conscious manufacturing processes.
