Fine Separations Technology Products and Services
YMC’s business is centered around liquid chromatography as a full-range supplier of bulk packing materials, lab and production scale systems, and associated services. However, the company also has a long history in manufacturing different types of custom process equipment, such as TFF, biosynthesis systems, and precision dilution systems.
Since releasing its first product in 1980, YMC has grown to support manufacturing and offices in over 10 countries, offering leading-edge services, sales, technical product support, contract purification services, and applications assistance. YMC serves customers of all sizes—from startup R&D labs to the world’s largest biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies.
YMC is a leading global provider of products and services for the purification of pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical compounds.
Pioneering the Future of Chromatographic Sciences
As one of the most established manufacturers of HPLC products, our portfolio ranges from analytical to preparative columns with resin phases including classic silica-based chemistries, hybrid particles, chiral polysaccharide derivatives, and ion exchange media. Every YMC column is individually tested to provide peak symmetry and performance and meet our high-quality standards.
YMC America Group has expanded from the core chromatography resins and columns business to include the manufacture of leading lab (Contichrom CUBE) and GMP scale prep systems (Contichrom TWIN HPLC and LPLC), as well as other custom process equipment. The company group operates two laboratories (located in the industry-rich hubs of Southern California and Massachusetts) that support YMC products and contract services.
