About the company

KABS Laboratories develops and manufactures medicines for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, supporting projects from early research through clinical trials and commercialization. It combines laboratory testing with formulation and production at the same site, so drug developers coordinate development work through a single contractor. Its teams test ingredients and finished products, establish analytical methods, and prepare the technical data used in regulatory submissions. Clients pay for contracted scientific and manufacturing work, with projects planned around their product requirements. Founded in 1997, KABS is headquartered in Saint-Hubert, Quebec, Canada.
