Upstream Bioprocessing, Scale with Confidence

From inoculum to bioreactor production, upstream control is critical. Avantor helps you optimize yields, reduce variability, and support scale-up with a comprehensive portfolio of raw materials and technologies that keep your upstream bioprocessing on target.

Optimize Your Upstream Process

Don’t Let Variability Derail Your Upstream Process

You’re working to increase yields, prevent contamination, and meet stringent regulatory demands—but variability in upstream bioprocessing can slow everything down.

From raw materials and media to fluid management solutions and assemblies, every component must perform reliably to support healthy cell growth and ensure successful scale-up.

Even trace elemental impurities in raw materials—or inconsistent performance in single-use assemblies—can lead to contamination and costly batch failures.

To keep your upstream process in motion, you need high-performing raw materials, as well as fluid management assemblies, consumables, and systems—all backed by the highest commitment to quality and global supply assurance. That’s where Avantor delivers.
