RRL Global Services and Battelle UK form strategic partnership to broaden CRO services for global customers

RRL Global Services Limited (RRL) and Battelle UK Limited (BUKL) announced a strategic partnership to broaden their service offerings for comprehensive regulatory consultancy services and Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) compliant research for global customers.

The partnership between RRL (a wholly-owned affiliate of Rotam CropSciences Limited) and BUKL leverages both parties’ capabilities to support customers from the crop protection industry across different regions. It also enables both parties to expand their service offerings for clients from across the globe.

They complement each other in principle GLP lab services with BUKL focusing on efate, metabolism, residues and formulation development while RRL will focus on ecotoxicity and in-vitro toxicity.

With RRL’s strong network of local regulatory authorities in China and South America, BUKL can offer clients regulatory consultancy services in China and South America. Similarly, RRL now can extend the regulatory consultancy services to European Union and United States. Through the partnership, client registration support can be extended to new geographic markets with BUKL covering the EU and US, and RRL for China and South America.

“We are excited to have formed this strategic partnership with Battelle UK to provide expanded services to our clients as they access new markets,” said Daniele Ruccia, RRL Division Manager. “This complementary partnership opens up new business opportunities for both parties. RRL is now capable of delivering one-stop regulatory service to a broader client base from EU and USA as we continue to serve existing clients in China and Japan.”

Battelle UK’s Crop Protection Division Manager, Darren Grafham, said he is excited about the new partnership.“Today marks an important milestone for Battelle UK’s mission to solve the problems that matter most to companies that feed the world,” he said. “Our partnership with RRL meets our agrochemical clients most urgent needs to access new geographical markets of high strategic relevance including China and LATAM, through a complementary and qualitatively high solution offering.”
