The people behind every batch

A pharmaceutical supplier is only as reliable as the chemists, analysts and quality staff who stand behind its paperwork. These are the people who develop our processes, release our batches and answer your questions.

Leadership

Dwirayu is led by three doctorate-qualified organic chemists who between them have spent more than fifty years developing and manufacturing pharmaceutical products. When a technical question reaches us, it reaches someone who has run the chemistry themselves.

Our leadership philosophy
How we are organised

Who you will actually deal with

Six functions, each with clear ownership. An enquiry reaches the person responsible for answering it rather than a shared inbox.

Quality assurance

Maintains the quality management system, handles deviations and change control, and audits our own suppliers before a raw material is approved.

Owns batch release and the certificate of analysis

Quality control

Tests raw materials, in-process samples and finished product against the agreed specification, and holds retention samples for the stated shelf life.

Owns the analytical result behind every batch

Research & development

Route scouting, process optimisation, impurity work and technology transfer from the laboratory to the plant.

Owns process development and scale-up

Production

Runs campaigns at Chiyada to the approved batch record, with equipment cleaning and line clearance verified between products.

Owns the manufacturing schedule

Regulatory affairs

Prepares and maintains dossiers, responds to deficiency letters, and assembles the documentation each destination market requires.

Owns registrations and market documentation

Environment, health & safety

Effluent treatment, solvent recovery, emissions monitoring and the safety training every operator completes before entering the plant.

Owns consent compliance and site safety
Our strength

A team built around chemistry

Our leadership came up through synthesis, process development and plant operations at established Indian pharmaceutical manufacturers. That experience is what a customer is buying when they place a first order with us.
