CEMAS – About us
Neal Rawle: CEMAS MD
CEMAS was established with one aim in mind: to provide high-quality data on time. More than 35 years later, those values remain at the heart of everything we do. I have been a part of CEMAS since 1990 and still feel proud to work with a group of talented scientists in such an enthusiastic and supportive environment. We remain committed to offering our clients the best professional service, with a constant focus on quality and delivery.
General Overview
Founded in 1989, CEMAS set out to provide analytical services with a commitment to delivering quality data on time. Today, 35 years later, CEMAS remains an independent, family-owned business, continuing to focus on quality and delivery. CEMAS has grown to provide a range of services to the agrochemical, pharmaceutical, veterinary medicine, biocide and chemical product industries.
Our team of scientists bring a wealth of experience, extensive knowledge and expertise to every project, with many of our study directors and senior analysts having over 25 years of experience in their specialty. We have a comprehensive and rigorously maintained suite of facilities. This enables us to offer a wide range of services, from non-regulatory method development to GxP testing to comprehensive multi-site study management.
CEMAS has invested heavily in data integrity and cyber security. We employ dedicated compliance and IT officers to manage a robust and compliant system for the generation and management of your data.
Today, GLP, GMP and GCP play a vital role in our approach.
CEMAS is also a great place to work. We are always on the lookout for talented individuals to join our team, with new opportunities arising throughout the year. We offer a friendly and supportive work environment with excellent benefits.
