CRS Diversified Products: Delivery Beyond Pharma




The CRS Diversified Products: Delivery Beyond Pharma Division (C&DP) is a multi-disciplinary, international group of CRS members dedicated to advancing science, technology, and education in the field of controlled release or delivery of active ingredients for applications beyond pharmaceuticals. The Division is dedicated to fostering excellent scientific dialogue in the areas of encapsulation and delivery of actives for industrial, functional, and consumer applications, bridging industry and academia. The division promotes scientific and educational value by hosting scientific sessions or symposia, roundtable, workshops at the CRS Annual Meeting with eminent speakers from both academia and industry. 

This Division promotes controlled release activities in an extensive range of interests beyond those of the pharmaceutical industry. Applications include, but are not limited to:


  • Food, nutraceuticals and oral delivery - nutraceuticals, food, bioactives, minerals, preservatives, ingredients, probiotics, flavors, enzymes, tobacco, etc.
  • Personal care and cosmetics - fragrances, active ingredients, color agents, reactive ingredients
  • Household products - fragrance, reactive ingredients, enzymes
  • Agriculture - fertilizers, fungicides, pesticides, biologicals
  • Veterinary – animal feed and care
  • General industrial, paints & coatings – biocides, reactive ingredients, oxidizers, inks, etc
  • Pest control – pesticides
  • Textiles – colors, reactive ingredients
