Countercurrent chromatographyFounded in 1999, Kromaton is the European pioneer in CCC/CPC chromatography systems.

Kromaton's first countercurrent chromatographs were based on  the principle of planetary motion. Later, the FCPC® range included a new cell design with a mono-axial rotor. 

The improvement was developped in partnership with the French fluidics institute GEPEA. Advanced research was conducted by  Dr. Alain Foucault* and his team.

Today, the FCPC® is a range of task-specific instruments  for R&D labs and industry. the machines are delivered in cGMP and Atex (explosion proof) configurations.

Complete automatic solutions are available for semi-preparative, preparative and industrial lines.

Kromaton also proposes low cost HPLC lines.
