CEO & Founder of Wilmington PharmaTech

Clinical and Commercial API Production

Wilmington PharmaTech supports both clinical and commercial API manufacturing across a range of batch sizes and program stages. Our infrastructure enables efficient progression from kilo-scale production through pilot-scale and into commercial supply, without disruptive technology transfers.

Manufacturing activities are supported by experienced production chemists, engineers, and quality professionals who work closely with development teams to preserve process understanding and ensure reliable execution.

Manufacturing support includes
  • Early-phase and late-phase clinical API production
  • Commercial scale manufacturing for small molecule APIs
  • Seamless transition from development into GMP production
  • Long-term supply support for approved products

This depth of understanding reduces uncertainty as programs progress and supports confident regulatory submissions.

Specialty Scaffolds, Late Stage Intermediates, and RSMs

At the request of many clients, Wilmington PharmaTech has created a unique catalogue of difficult-to-synthesize starting materials and analogues available at Kg scale to facilitate discovery and IND-enabling activities. A pdf list of these compounds is available upon request.

High-potency APIs

Dedicated HPAPI Manufacturing Capabilities

High-potency APIs require specialized infrastructure, containment, and expertise. Wilmington PharmaTech operates dedicated HPAPI manufacturing suites designed to safely handle complex and potent compounds while maintaining GMP compliance.

HPAPI manufacturing is supported by purpose-built containment systems, engineering controls, and operational practices that enable safe, repeatable production.

HPAPI capabilities include:

  • Dedicated HPAPI kilo lab production suites

  • Walk-in hoods and controlled containment environments

  • Reactor capacities supporting development through commercial scale

  • Integration with analytical and quality systems for full lifecycle support

These capabilities position Wilmington PharmaTech to support increasingly complex and high-potency programs as they advance toward commercialization.

FDA-inspected manufacturing facilities

US-Based, FDA-Inspected Manufacturing Facilities

Wilmington PharmaTech operates FDA-inspected manufacturing facilities in Delaware, located on a former DuPont/Merck site with a long history of chemical manufacturing excellence.

Our facilities support development, clinical, and commercial activities within a single US-based footprint, providing regulatory alignment, supply chain confidence, and direct access to scientific and operational teams.

Facility highlights include:

  • Multiple GMP kilo lab production suites

  • Commercial-scale manufacturing capabilities

  • Reactor volumes ranging from laboratory scale to hundreds of liters

  • Infrastructure designed to support expansion and long-term growth
