ACTIVATION

ACTIVATION is a CDMO specialized in catalysis that designs and develops continuous chemical processes for the synthesis of new compounds or recycling of polymers. ACTIVATION combines expertise in chemistry and analysis with the design and implementation of automated continuous demonstrators. This know-how accelerates the development of new processes to the industrial stage by combining chemistry and technology for the eco-design of competitive processes. Furthermore, ACTIVATION has continuous production units for manufacturing initial samples for commercial rampe up (10-50 tons/year) at its Meyrié site (38).

- Expert in chemistry and catalysis (homogeneous, heterogeneous, hydrogenation, oligomerization, hydroformylation, pyrolysis, distillation, UV-LED)
- Expertise in flow chemical recycling of polymers

In 2022 Activation built a new site in Meyrié (38) dedicated to automated continuous flow processes (dehydration, oligomerization, hydrogenation, hydroformylation…). We now design and build fit-for-purpose demonstrators. We can either operate them 24/7 for R&D and production or sell the equipment for implementation on your site. You buy more than a reactor as we guarantee chemical performances in your demonstrator. To bring to our customers a global solution for continuous flow production : software, equipment, catalyst shaping…
In 2025 Activation has launched the BAULIDE project dedicated to continuous flow processes involving solids (feeding, liquid/liquid extraction, crystallisation and continuous filtration). This project is hosted in our new site located at Janneyrias (38).
