We tailor each service to meet diverse purification requirements, delivering custom-packed columns designed for reliable, high-performance results for chromatography-based purification processes across scales, from single-use to large production.

Accommodating resin selection

Choose to use your own resin or take advantage of our high-performance PuraBead® options. This ensures that our column packing services can accommodate a variety of resins, all while maintaining reliable performance and results in any application.

Accelerated delivery

We understand that timing is critical, which is why we prioritize fast and reliable service. Your packed columns can be delivered in as little as 21 days, helping you stay on schedule while minimizing downtime and supporting seamless, uninterrupted bioprocessing workflows.

End-to-end support

Our column packing services come with support from our dedicated Field Application Specialists (FAS) team, who offer expert insight and guidance whenever needed. They work closely with you to address challenges and keep your workflow running efficiently. This hands-on approach ensures even the most complex purification processes are well-managed, minimizing disruptions and optimizing performance.

Re-packing services

Our re-packing service offers a cost-saving option by allowing you to reuse resins without sacrificing quality. The process maintains the integrity of your resin, so that it can perform at a high level after multiple uses.

SNAP® and Evolve® columns

We offer a range of chromatography columns that support diverse bioprocessing needs, allowing for flexibility in any lab setting.

SNAP® columns are reusable, configurable, and compatible with virtually any chromatography media, ideal for applications such as process development and viral clearance studies. Available in a wide range of diameters, these columns can be conveniently pre-packed with your resin of choice or easily self-packed, giving you full control and continuity over your workflow. Each pre-packed SNAP® column is performance-tested, and ready for immediate, reliable use.

Evolve® Process Columns are ready-to-use, reusable, and scalable, offering low-maintenance, adaptable solutions for biopharmaceutical applications from pilot to production scale. Available in eight diameters, they combine the benefits of pre-packed and self-pack formats, ensuring column integrity across multiple cycles. Designed for extended use, they allow resin removal to maximize cycles, support long-term studies, and reduce costs, making them ideal for larger-scale GMP applications.

If your project requires a single-use option, our Evolve® D columns offer a ready-to-use solution for protein purification and contaminant removal in bioprocessing and biomanufacturing. Pre-packed with your choice of resin, these columns are manufactured in an ISO 7 environment to ensure purity and consistency. Supplied with a Certificate of Analysis and Regulatory Support File (RSF), Evolve® D Columns provide a reliable, flexible, and cost-effective option for streamlined workflows.
