JOA Chemicals was established in 2003 and specialized in custom manufacturing of fine chemicals and pharmaceutical intermediates including various heterocyclic compounds which were hard-to-get and mostly not available in the market. We process R&D, scale-up on the quantity mainly from grams to tons according to our customers’ requirements.

Our research institute sets up a 15000 m2 research base and has two pilot workshops equipped with various size reactors ranged from 20L to 3000L. We have more than 30 professional R&D chemists who specialized in route development and procedure optimization in laboratory and 40 experienced scale-up engineers. Each year, we synthesis 100-200 new compounds in the laboratory and process scale-up in pilot-plant and commercial-plant.

In the past years, with our professional and efficient R&D and production service, we have established long-term relationship with many world famous pharmaceutical companies. We pasted ISO9001 quality management system and we also adopted the concepts of E.H.S to ensure that our service is professional and our employees work in safe and healthy environment. In particular, we’ll follow the western practice in intellectual property aspect to ensure our customers’ interest.
