Integrated ELN + LIMS Software

Modern software for plastics and packaging chemists and technical teams

Request a Demo >
Plastics and packaging research and product development are at a crossroads of challenges and opportunities. Consumer concerns about sustainability, coupled with compliance-driven reformulation, have made it more crucial than ever to accelerate formulating and streamline workflows for better product development. Disconnected data and outdated information systems slow down testing cycles and keep companies from getting high-quality products to customers on time.
‍
With Alchemy's flexible ELN and LIMS, you can connect and organize data to meet customer specifications quickly and easily. Embedded Design of Experiment (DOE) capabilities let you set benchmarks and targets for properties and accumulate AI-ready data in the process. Whether you develop raw materials or manage the entire product development process, Alchemy can help you speed up research and reduce development costs.

Powered by artificial intelligence, Alchemy provides valuable insights that help your company identify patterns and develop new formulations more efficiently. By overlaying data across the entire process, it can predict packaging or material failure, shelf life, decomposition, and other critical properties. Better predictions mean fewer testing cycles, which means faster development and scale-up.
“We knew Alchemy would help us move faster by giving us all our data in one place.”
- Dr. Mari Granström, Chief Scientist & Co-Founder of Origin by Ocean
