Concept Life Sciences is a knowledge-based, science-led business providing a wide range of innovative and integrated solutions to clients in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food, agrochemical, petrochemical, chemical, cosmetics and consumer products sectors.
Concept was formed in 2014 following the merger of Scientific Analysis Laboratories (SAL), Agenda1 Analytical Services, Peakdale Molecular, CXR Biosciences and Resource & Environmental Consultants (REC).
Since then we have expanded through a mix of organic growth and targeted acquisition, most recently Aquila Biomedical in 2018. Today we are home to more than 250 employees, working from seven laboratories across the UK.
We have brought together teams of highly trained scientists, excellent laboratory facilities and an in-depth understanding of our core markets, and created a business that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Our teams share a common focus on problem solving, quality, collaboration, communication and flexibility and deliver a comprehensive platform of services in the Pharmaceutical, Crops & Chemicals and Food sectors.
