The GJR Facility recognises the uniqueness of every project, tailoring our approach to meet your specific objectives. With extensive experience of collaborating with a diverse range of external organisations, we provide a variety of turnaround options, realistic cost estimates, and the opportunity for in-person consultations. Our commitment to building trust and professional relationships ensures we deliver solutions that meet your project specifications.
Whether you are looking to collaborate or to utilise our research facilities and equipment, we are ready to work with you. We look forward to exploring how we can support your research and development needs.
Clients can receive training on our equipment to address specific materials challenges, characterisation needs, and microscopy requirements. This option allows you to independently access and operate our systems providing that ownership of those specific materials.
We will assess your requirements and determine the most suitable techniques and instruments. This option includes comprehensive data analysis, interpretation, overview reporting, and further recommendations, with ongoing communication throughout the project.
If you are an SME located within Durham, Newcastle, Northumbria and North of Tyne county’s, and you have an innovation idea which would benefit from having access to academic expertise and resources, the Arrow Innovation Support programme could be a way you can get limited access to our facilities. The Arrow programme is part funded by the Government’s UK Shared Prosperity Fund through Durham County Council and the North of Tyne Combined Authority and is now administered by the North East Combined Authority. It provides local SME's with innovation support through short term projects.
