The delivery is the fourth that Nanologica has made since the company approved its silica-based media for preparative chromatography, NLAB Saga®. The order for this delivery was taken in 2022 and is the first call-off against payment within the long-term agreement signed in 2019 with Yunbo Technology, which was activated in December.
 
”It is very gratifying that we are now able to make another delivery after approving yet another batch of our silica media NLAB Saga®. From the first quarter, we estimate that we will have ongoing production with gradually increasing volumes. The delivery agreement with Yunbo is back-heavy, but we expect that orders and deliveries against the agreement will now increase gradually. The demand for high-quality silica for purification of peptides has increased in China, as in the rest of the world, and we now show that we are ready to take on the Chinese market”, Nanologica’s CEO Andreas Bhagwani comments.

The agreement with Yunbo Technology (Beijing) Co. was signed in 2019 in connection with Nanologica commencing scale-up of silica production to industrial scale and is for the delivery of silica media for preparative chromatography to a value of USD 14 million over a six-year period. Through the agreement, Yunbo Technology is the exclusive distributor for Nanologica's preparative and analytical silica products in China.
