Reactor
vessels.
Jacketed & limpet-coil reactors from 50 L to 10 KL — built in SS 316 / 304, designed to your URS, validated to GMP. The workhorse of pharma, chemical and biotech process trains.
Custom · 50 L – 10 KL
Overview
Engineered for the toughest processes.
Our reactor vessels handle synthesis, crystallisation, distillation and reaction-quenching duties across pharmaceutical APIs, fine chemicals and biotech intermediates. Every reactor is dimensioned, jacketed and instrumented from a fresh GA — no two are alike.
You bring the URS, batch size and reaction profile. We bring the engineering, fabrication, validation and lifetime support.

Applications
Where they go to work.
Rx
Pharmaceutical APIs
Reaction, crystallisation, quenching and recovery for active pharmaceutical ingredients — small-batch to commercial.
Cm
Fine & speciality chemicals
Corrosion-resistant variants in 316L, Hastelloy, duplex or glass-lined options for aggressive media.
Bx
Biotech intermediates
SIP-capable jacketed vessels for media prep, buffer hold and downstream fermentation support.
