Intertek scientists help clients reverse and engineer formulations, materials and products. Increasingly complex product formulations produce final products which often contains dozens of components at varying structural and concentration levels. Intertek research capabilities enable formulations of interest to be duplicated or improved upon. Deconstruction of a formulation can be as challenging as the design of the product. Intertek expertise helps clients understand what is going on.
Clients want to understand the nature of the various components of a formulation, ingredient concentration and how these components and ingredients interact. Formulation studies are run for quality control issues, for evaluating market penetration of particular components, and to better understand particular formulations of interest. An analytical, coordinated approach is required, bringing together skills in extraction, separation science, spectroscopy and physical testing. Intertek laboratories such as MSG and ASG offer significant skills in this area, covering polymer formulations, surfactants, multi-layer systems, drug delivery systems, additives, food ingredients, consumer products, personal care products and more.
The performance of formulated products evaluated by consumers, and the inter-action of the various components, can prove key to establishing competitive advantage and the promotion of perceived advantages in the marketplace.
