RESEARCH

Process development and innovation are the key pillars of Neogen’s research capabilities In fact, the promoters themselves are technocrats and drive the R&D.

Our major success comes from the process innovation and efficiencies. Our product portfolio has increased from 20 products in 2001 to around 245+ products.

Neogen has two R&D facilities – at Vadodara and the other at Mahape. It has a dedicated and experienced 68 member R&D team. There are two teams led by 7 qualified and experienced team leaders who are Ph. Ds.

Neogen’s quality control and quality assurance team monitor the manufacturing process at all stages from initial testing stage for incoming raw material to the final product prior to packing. The final product is cleared for dispatch only after the team tests a sample of the batch against customer approved or internal specifications as applicable.
