History

Intertek Cantox had its beginnings over 20 years ago. The company has a product focus, having recognized early on the emerging need for science-based analysis and strategic interpretation of complex regulatory issues for businesses and trade associations.

From its initial focus of servicing North American clients, Intertek Cantox has grown to serve a global clientele. More than a decade ago, a U.S. office in New Jersey was opened in response to demand from clients for assistance with projects that spanned throughout North America. Additionally, after several years of servicing clients in Europe, Intertek Cantox formally opened an office in London, England in 2004. In 2010, we are pleased to announce that Intertek Cantox has been acquired by Intertek.  Today, our team of more than 85 professionals is working with clients on projects that involve more than 120 countries across six continents.

We offer a one-stop shop, especially now with Intertek, with the breadth and depth of service to provide the resources clients need when they need them, including additional support to client in-house regulatory and scientific staff. Intertek Cantox is committed to hiring some of the best and brightest scientists. We are highly ethical, relationship oriented, and deliver excellent value by avoiding activities that are unnecessary or that won’t move ahead to a successful outcome.

The Intertek Cantox guiding principle has always been to protect client interests while helping our clients achieve their milestones in bringing new products to market, or proactively defending established ones. Clients benefit from successful outcomes, reduced time to market, and decreased costs.

At Intertek Cantox, everything we do begins with solid science. We do it right the first time and we only take those steps that are necessary. It’s about putting our client interests first.

While Intertek Cantox has grown to become one of the largest and most respected scientific consulting firms in the world, we are just as responsive to client needs today as we were 25 years ago.
