A test center designed for American healthcare and cosmetics manufacturers

As manufacturers, making an informed investment is crucial for your business. Testing equipment under real-life conditions is the best way to ensure it meets your specific requirements. This hands-on approach not only gives you confidence in your purchase but also helps you optimize your processes right from the start.

Recognizing the challenges our North-American customers face when traveling to our Process Development Center in France, we’ve taken a significant step to better serve you.

This test center is strategically located to provide easy and convenient access to VMI’s equipment range. Whether you’re in the cosmetics, pharmaceutical, or chemical industry, this new laboratory is designed to meet your needs, making the testing process more efficient and accessible.

The test center features equipment covering various mixing processes and ensuring the scale up of formulations and mixing parameters for large scale production:

Our customers now have the unique opportunity to carry out practical trials with their own ingredients, enabling them to assess the performance of our equipment under real-life conditions.

In addition, as a Coperion brand, our integration into their US laboratory enables us to bring together multiple technologies from across the group in a single location. The facility also boasts equipment from our sister companies’ compounding, extrusion and feeding test centers.

What are the advantages of this laboratory?

This test center offers multiple benefits:

Test customization: Tests can be tailored to specific customer requirements.

Hands-on training: Opportunity to train directly on the equipment, ensuring optimal use.

Local support: On-site assistance to answer questions quickly and organize trial sessions.

Test before you invest: Customers can try out our equipment with their own raw materials, ensuring it’s the right fit before making a commitment
