Cultech Ltd combines award-winning research with sophisticated manufacturing capability. Founded in 1994 by biotechnologists Nigel and Sue Plummer, the company operates out of three sites in South Wales. Although Cultech has achieved recognition for its innovation in research, it also has very proactive sales, marketing, manufacturing and service capability.

Cultech’s core business is the development and manufacture of nutritional food supplements for the health care market, supplying high specification products to the practitioner market of GPs and nutritionalists. The company’s products are sold in the UK, Norway, Israel, Canada and the USA.

Cultech has recently established a Contract Manufacturing business, offering its specialist formulation skills and wide-ranging manufacturing capability to the supplements industry as a whole. The company has very large-scale freeze drying capacity, offering a contract service to clients as well as drying products to go into its own dietary supplements. Being able to offer a ‘one-stop shop’ approach embracing freeze drying, capsule filling, tablet making, liquid fills, sachet-forming and blister packing is proving very popular with clients.

Cultech Agriculture Ltd was formed as part of the Cultech Group of companies to focus on the agricultural market place. It sells proprietary forage inoculants, milk replacers and animal health products under the Pharmor brand through a network of agricultural merchants in the UK. The company also developed the innovative, natural, animal-feed additive, Enteroguard, which is being sold to feed manufacturers throughout Europe.
