Ina Research Inc. is a contract research laboratory established in 1974 to assist in the development of pharmaceutical and other products. Social responsibility lies at the center of our corporate policy making. Our commitment to upholding a sound sense of ethics, eco-friendliness, corporate transparency, and above all, to providing highly reliable, quality services, ensures the on-going trust of our clients and of society as a whole. This commitment also contributes to the development of the medical and pharmaceutical sciences.

All kinds of efforts made in a various range of areas, from the supply of animals through to the submission of study reports, allows us to stand apart from competitors and provide consistently high quality, reliable study data. In 1994, a subsidiary was established in the Philippines, the local origin of cynomolgus monkeys for laboratory use. Not only does this mean a secure supply of animals for our laboratory in Japan, but also thorough in-house microbiological and environmental control to ensure high quality animals with minimal individual differences. Furthermore, we were the first organization in Japan to gain full accreditation from the Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care (AAALAC) International, and continues to adhere to universal standards for animal care and use.
Our environmental business, the development and distribution of equipment to maintain a clean atmosphere, also contributes ecologically to society.
As experts in the field of safety evaluation, technical innovation such as drug dependence studies, cardiac safety assessment and the ophthalmology in non-human primates, we draw increasing international attention.

As we continue to pursue further sophistication of technology and quality, we hope to establish ourselves as an invaluable partner for your developments, able to meet your demands in every way possible. We look forward to working with you.
