Mix Solutions operates as a non-cGMP Formulation Development and Testing facility. This laboratory environment allows us to develop product formulations quickly and efficiently, and is very suitable for the purely R&D activities involved in the following product areas:

• Household and institutional cleaners: Laundry and dish detergents, hard surface cleaners, toilet bowl cleaners, disinfectant/sanitizers, including low/no VOC environmentally friendly products which comply with Green Seal and Design for the Environment, and 95% USDA Organic formulations.
• Polishes and coatings: Floor polish, furniture polish, shoe polish, abrasives, automotive products and more.
  
• Chemical Specialties: Other unique consumer product categories.
  
• Dietary and sport supplements: We bring the unique perspective of a health/fitness/body-building enthusiast to your product formulation work.
• OTC and Rx Pharmaceuticals*: Early-phase pre-formulation (pre-clinical development work), using your specified API, and USP/NF excipients which appear in the FDA Inactive Ingredient Database.
• Personal care products and cosmetics*: Our expertise includes all types of personal care products: Shampoo, conditioner, bodywash, hair spray/mousse/gel, creams, lotions, sun care, self-tanners, serums, toothpaste, mouth rinse, deodorant/antiperspirants, natural/organic products, etc.

Upon completion of the formulation activities, Mix Solutions will issue a detailed report with formulation, batch-making procedures, raw material vendors and tentative product specifications, suitable for transfer to a production facility, or to a cGMP/GLP facility for production of clinical supplies.

*Please Note: Your pharmaceutical or personal care development project may fall within categories which are capable of being serviced completely by Pharmasol Corporation, particularly if it is an aerosol, a foam, a liquid or a lotion. If this is determined to be the case, Mix Solutions will refer you to the appropriate contact at Pharmasol for further discussion. Rest assured, either way, Jim Hammer will be working on your project. Click here to find out more about the excellent services available at Pharmasol Corporation!

• Formulation refinement, performance improvement and cost reduction. Mix Solutions will help you to optimize your existing product formulation.
• Technical assistance and trouble shooting. Mix Solutions will review your formulations and batching procedures to help determine the root causes of problems.
