 Thermo Scientific, located in Rockford, IL., has been producing fine chemicals and biologicals for over 50 years. We utilize a wide variety of techniques to manufacture and package over 2,000 products. We are ISO 9001 certified which is acceptable for many bulk manufacturing projects. We do not currently have cGMP production facilities, but we welcome customer audits of our facility and will work with you to provide documentation and materials for any necessary validation studies. We recently completed construction of a new, 55,000 sq ft production facility with class 100,000 HEPA suites.
