Understand a scientific phenomenon
Court-appointed
Turn available scientific knowledge into actionable industrial decisions.
Explore our expertise
Industrial companies regularly need to make decisions on complex technical issues, but relevant information is often scattered across scientific literature, patents and supplier data. Turning this knowledge into actionable decisions requires structured analysis.
Your needs
Understand a scientific phenomenon
Identify existing solutions
Anticipate technical risks
Prepare a product development project
Assess current knowledge of a technology or material
Conduct a comprehensive state-of-the-art review of a scientific topic

Our approach
Filab Genium supports every part of the value chain in selecting and securing raw materials so they never hold back your development. Using materials databases, close supplier relationships and in-depth knowledge of materials and chemistry, we can quickly identify suitable options for your needs.
Defining requirements
What operational performance do you expect from your product? How do you use it? Our teams can examine and refine these requirements during a site visit.
Translating requirements into material specifications
Based on your needs, our teams establish a specification for physicochemical properties, weighted according to the importance of each function.
Material search & comparison
Using materials databases and our supplier relationships, we provide a list of materials objectively ranked and scored against your specifications.
Experimental validation
Laboratory-scale testing and support with industrial scale-up.

Customer case study
Before committing to several months of development, a manufacturer wanted to understand the solutions already available.
Filab Genium conducted an international literature review to identify existing approaches, known limitations and the most promising options.

Discuss your needs with our consultants to define the scope of your literature review.
Find answers to the questions our industrial customers ask most often. Have a question about your project? Our experts will respond within 24 hours.
A structured summary of relevant scientific publications, patents and technical data, with critical analysis and recommendations your R&D teams can use directly.
An industrial literature review brings together, filters and analyses available scientific knowledge about a material, process or phenomenon. Filab Genium structures this information into a decision-making tool.
Technology monitoring identifies emerging technologies, market participants and solutions already protected by patents. Patent analysis supports product development decisions and helps limit infringement risks.
Before a project begins, a state-of-the-art review reduces technical uncertainty by identifying previously explored approaches, their documented limitations and the most promising options for your industrial context.
Each study concludes with a prioritised summary covering conclusions, source reliability, identified risks and practical recommendations for your technical teams.
