CRO Services.
Researching and manufacturing drugs and biotech in space is happening now, commercially.
The means to embark on this journey has begun and commercial R&D in Space is achievable now with Plastron microgravity services, PlastronCRO. We provide and design specialist infrastructure for the launch and ISAM sectors, with a special focus on enabling life science research in Microgravity (Low Earth Orbit).
Our service centres on end-to-end service model incorporating the Plastron Deployable Laboratory, a deployable lab designed to support payload preparation at the launch site and post flight processing in remote locations following splash/crash down.

- Monitoring & Management - We track, manage and monitor your experiment in space with option for simulataneous documentation/replication on earth
- De-orbit & Re-entry - We arrange for the completed experiment package to de-orbit and re-entry to earth

Arrange for a consultation with one of our Pharma/Biotech/Medical experts to have an initial discussion to determine how we can help you realise your commercial objectives in Microgravity.
