We are a UK-based Independent Contract Research Organisation supporting global programmes in veterinary products, feed additives and related product development.

We are proud to support the world’s leading organisations with superior proof of concept, product development and registration studies designed to meet the needs and budgets of our clients.

We combine study design, practical in-life delivery and disciplined oversight – so the data generated is credible, usable and ready for technical review.

Easy to work with

Our aim is to make your experience with us as smooth as possible. As part of the process you’ll deal with our experienced knowledgeable team, who operate with clear communication and will build a plan that respects your timelines and constraints.

 

Quality, GLP and GCPv

First established in 2007 (originally as part of ADAS), Drayton Animal Health moved into new ownership in 2016 and continues to operate from high-quality facilities in the centre of the UK.

Our work is delivered within Good Laboratory Practice (GLP) and Good Clinical Practice Veterinary (GCPv) frameworks where required. Quality is not a bolt-on; it informs study design, in-life phases, monitoring and reporting from the start, with our robust documentation, procedures and data integrity.

If you’re planning a study and want a CRO partner who’s practical, responsive and disciplined, get in contact with our team.

Tell us the species, product type, and what you need to demonstrate, and we’ll come back with a sensible route forward and initial proposal to discuss.

A short call is often enough to confirm feasibility, timelines and the right delivery approach (facility, field, or a blend). We work confidentially and we’ll be candid early on about what’s achievable and what will de-risk your programme.
