Flow Chemistry Reactors
At Cambridge Reactor Design, we facilitate both experienced and new users interested in utilising flow chemistry. We design and build a range of flow chemistry equipment, from laboratory size systems to production scale rigs.
All of our designs and much of our production work is carried out in house. This means that we control quality. It also means that we can meet end user expectations by carrying our customisation work when needed.
Batch Reactors
Bullfrog Range
Why Batch? A stirred tank batch reactor is the most widely used reactor type both in the laboratory and industry. Batch reactors may be preferred for small-scale production of high priced products, particularly if many sequential operations are employed to obtain high product yields. Batch reactors also may be justified when multiple, low volume products are produced in the same equipment or when continuous flow is difficult, as it is with highly viscous or sticky solids-laden liquids. Data obtained in batch reactors can be well defined and used to predict performance of larger scale, continuous-flow reactors.
We manufacture batch reactors in stainless steel, glass and corrosion resilient alloys like C276 and C22.
Heating, Cooling & Stirring Platforms
Check Valves & Fittings
Tadpole Range
Our Tadpole range of check valves and miniature check valves are engineered to the highest standards and offer unique solutions.
Our check valves offer practical solutions for applications where space is at a premium and reliability is essential. Our miniature check valves are ideal for gas or liquid applications. They are used in every industry. The materials in our check valves provide improved corrosion resistance and make them a superior alternative to comparable plastic valves.
Our check valves incorporate a low inertia poppet design with O-ring seats to achieve a fast, positive seal. Additionally, most of our check valves can also be used as pressure relief valves.
From customised solutions to our range of standard products and services Cambridge Reactor Design has a process and control solution to meet your needs. +44 (0) 1954 252522

Product Video
The Polar Bear is one of nicest things we’ve ever made. It’s a compact platform that heat and cools from -40C up to 150C. I describe it as being like a washer dryer - does both! Ours is the size of a shoebox.
