Contract Manufacturing and Custom Synthesis

A large segment of the chemical industry includes toll producers, private-label and contract manufacturers, and custom synthesis businesses. Whether private labeling for consumer brands or providing outsourced chemical intermediates to the pharmaceutical or nutraceutical industry, contract manufacturers play a vital role in the chemical value chain. 

These contract businesses run the gamut from highly efficient toll blenders and private labelers who serve as a customer’s outsourced manufacturing and logistics arm, to the custom synthesis facilities that specialize in complex chemistries, reaction capabilities, or hazardous material handling expertise. Key drivers in contract manufacturing and custom synthesis are the quality, longevity, and scope of the customer relationships; breadth of services provided (one-off toll manufacturing versus integrated supply chain management, for example); manufacturing efficiencies; and accurate understanding of cost drivers.
