About Research & Development

Galentic R&D Centre at MIDC, Andheri (East) in Mumbai, is spread over 5000 sq. ft., focusing on development of sterile ophthalmic & topical dermatological products.

Our R&D capabilities include pre-formulation and formulation development, analytical development and validation, characterization, microbiology and In-vitro release testing (IVRT).

Our R&D Center has been recognized by Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR), Govt. of India.

Quality Management System (QMS) is in place for monitoring development work until successful technology transfer at GMP site.
