The pathway from research to real-world impact.
A global R&D innovation and pilot manufacturing group delivering 360° solutions to companies worldwide. Working across bioscience and biotech, publishing, clinical research, food, cosmetic and pet nutrition science, and laboratory testing, our six specialist businesses take ideas from research and formulation through pilot production to market launch.
One group. Six ways to move science forward.
Guires started in 2009 as a three-person research and analytics team in India. It is now a group of specialist businesses with offices in Chennai and Manchester and teams working with clients in North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
Our R&D and pilot manufacturing platform brings formulation kitchens, nutraceutical, cosmetic and microbiology labs, sensory booths and pilot production lines together with clinical, regulatory and data expertise.
Each business runs with its own experts and its own brand. They share the group's research methods, quality systems and data capability, so a client can move from a literature review to a formulation, a clinical study, a regulatory dossier or a publication without changing partners.
Our teams include PhD scientists, biotechnologists, molecular and microbiology specialists, physicians, biostatisticians, food technologists, cosmetic chemists, veterinary nutritionists, analytical chemists and regulatory writers.
