INFRASTRUCTURE
Novalyst Discovery is located in the BioParc, a science cluster, in Illkirch, about 15 minutes from downtown Strasbourg and Entzheim-Strasbourg airport.
In January 2007, Novalyst moved into a state-ofthe-art infrastructure, specifically designed and equipped for organic synthesis. These 1000 square meters premises have been set up to comply with the latest standards of safety regulations.
Our R&D unit encompasses 30 hoods organized around two independent multipurpose laboratories including two dedicated safety laboratories for hazardous chemistry (hazardous handling) and gaseous reactions (hydrogenation, pressure reactions). It also comprises adequate ventilated storage rooms for greater security, and, in order to streamline operations, when designing the laboratories, special attention was given to eco-efficiency and hazard prevention.
