We will assist you in the preparation of your dossiers to the MHRA and EMA for marketing authorisations for medicinal products, biotechnology products and drugs. We also advise on borderline products such as cosmetics, foods, FSMPs, food supplements and medical foods.

We will also advise and assist you in the preparation of your dossiers and in obtaining authorisation and registration for their biocidal products under the Biocidal Regulation from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). We will advise you in relation to REACH regarding the registration, evaluation, authorisation and restriction of chemicals they are importing, supplying and/or marketing.
