‘’Broughton was instrumental in helping us navigate our PMTA submission. We worked with several labs, but their strong GMP background and FDA inspection experience really stood out. The quality of their chemistry testing and the clarity of their communication made a complex process feel manageable. I can’t recommend them highly enough.’’
Chief Executive Officer, US ENDS Company
‘’We’d previously worked with separate contract labs and toxicology consultants, but Broughton’s integrated analytical and tox services stood out. Their collaborative approach both within their team and with our external partners made project management much smoother. Their scientific expertise strengthened our regulatory filings, and their clear, proactive communication was a real asset throughout. A truly professional partner."
Chief Scientific and Regulatory Officer, Global Nicotine Brand
We needed a lab we could trust as a reliable outsourcing partner for our next-gen nicotine product testing. Broughton’s set-up is built for both high-quality and high-throughput testing, and their LabHQ platform brought much-needed structure to our workflow. Their experience with both FDA and MHRA gave us total confidence in the data underpinning our R&D activities leading to regulatory submissions."
