ALCALIBER, S.A. is currently equipped with one of the most modern and innovating manufacturing plants, focusing its entire activity on the fields of alkaloids. To this effect, the company makes use of the latest technologies in terms of the extraction, purification and synthesis of opium poppy alkaloids – eliminating the use of chlorinated solvents from all its processes.

The company recently has inaugurated a new plant which on one hand allows doubling of the production, and on the other improvement of the applied quality standards. Use has been made of the best of the existing technologies in terms of both processing (solvent recycling and reutilization, technologies characterized by low solvent consumption ratios, etc.) and the environment (ultrafiltration systems for purifying water, recovering volatile compounds, reducing waste production, recycling materials, etc.).

The quality control laboratory in turn is equipped with modern analytical equipment: IR, HPLC, GC, stability chambers, for ICH studies.

The quality control laboratory is equipped with modern apparatus for laboratory analysis, with IR, HPLC, GC, stability chambers for ICH studies.

All this has led to the preparation and obtainment of Drug Master Files (DMFs) and Certificates of Conformity with the European Pharmacopoeia for the main products derived from the opium poppy.
