Valphira is not just a production service provider that outsources analytics. Valphira is a true pharmaceutical manufacturer.
Our understanding
A laboratory that does more than quality control
For us, that means much more than manufacturing: a high-performance GMP laboratory, solid analytical expertise and a deep understanding of pharmaceutical quality are part of our DNA.
That's why our laboratory is not just a checkpoint at the end of the line. It supports the entire product lifecycle – from starting materials and in-process and release testing to stability studies and method questions. This is what delivers the safety, depth and professionalism expected of a modern pharmaceutical manufacturer.
Quality doesn't begin with the finished product.
Anyone who wants to manufacture solid dosage forms at a high level has to get quality right from the start.
That's why Valphira tests not only finished products but also starting materials and stability samples according to pharmacopoeias (such as Ph. Eur. and HAB) and other binding regulations.
Our laboratory is set up to handle analytical questions across the entire value chain – traceable, documented and GMP-compliant.
The Valphira advantage
Analytical expertise across the full pharmaceutical spectrum
Our laboratory covers a wide range of physicochemical, spectroscopic and pharmaceutical technology test methods, including:
HPLC analysis
GC analysis
Dissolution testing
Thin-layer chromatography
Titrations
Raman, IR and UV/VIS spectroscopy
Wet chemistry
(e.g., pH, osmolality, optical rotation, ash, loss on drying, dry residue, identity tests)
Pharmaceutical technology testing
(e.g., disintegration time, friability, content uniformity, hardness, viscosity, particulate contamination)
This range reflects real pharmaceutical manufacturing capability. It shows that Valphira can not only produce, but also analyze, safeguard and take quality responsibility for products.
Development & transfer
Development, stability and transfer – practical and GMP-compliant
A strong laboratory goes beyond routine testing.
Valphira also supports stability studies, in-use studies, photostability studies, and method transfer and validation.
We are also steadily expanding our method development expertise so we can reliably support customers with new or more demanding analytical questions.
This makes us a good fit not only for established products, but also for companies that want to launch new products, transfer existing manufacturing processes or strengthen their analytical foundation.
Specialties
Specialist expertise for complex products
Beyond classic pharmaceutical topics, Valphira has extensive analytical expertise in:
Herbal medicines
Dietary supplements
Vitamin products
Experience is especially valuable here, because products, raw materials and analytical requirements are often more specialized than with standard formulas. Our clients benefit from a team that not only knows the methods but also understands the specifics of each product category.
GMP compliance
Our GMP laboratory: traceable, qualified, reliable
Our laboratory follows clear GMP principles, including:
- Traceability of all relevant steps
- Documentation according to ALCOA+ principles
- Validated methods
- Qualified equipment
- Trained personnel
- Structured OOS investigations
This is complemented by sampling in a qualified cleanroom and environmental monitoring of airborne microorganisms, surfaces and airborne particles.
For us, this is not an extra – it's a basic requirement. Reliable production of solid dosage forms takes more than good equipment; it takes a laboratory that robustly confirms results and systematically safeguards quality.
Our standard
A laboratory that proves real manufacturing expertise
Our lab shows what Valphira stands for as a company: pharmaceutical depth, analytical rigor and true manufacturing responsibility.
It is a key reason why Valphira can professionally develop and manufacture a very broad range of solid dosage forms. Because the ability to safely produce tablets, film-coated tablets, capsules and other solid dosage forms depends not only on machines, but on quality systems, method expertise, experience and clean analytics.
Valphira brings manufacturing and laboratory together in one integrated pharmaceutical approach. That is what makes us a high-performing partner for solid dosage forms.
