Headquartered in Fort Collins, Colorado, the company serves clients in the Rx, OTC, diagnostic, and dietary supplement sectors, aiming to accelerate time-to-market with its formulation expertise and cGMP facilities.

Operates in the highly fragmented and competitive CDMO sector, competing with giants like Catalent, Lonza, and Recipharm, as well as numerous niche players.
