Product & Process Development Consulting
Reformix helps organisations develop, optimise and validate new products, materials and industrial processes. From early-stage concepts and laboratory investigations through to pilot trials, scale-up activities and deployment planning, we provide the technical expertise required to reduce uncertainty and accelerate commercial outcomes.
Turning Ideas, Materials & Technologies into Commercial Solutions with Applied R&D, Optimisation and Scale-Up Support
Reformix provides specialist consulting services to support the development of novel materials, products, and industrial processes. Our work bridges fundamental materials science with practical engineering and commercial implementation, helping organisations transform raw materials and industrial by-products into viable commercial products.
Our team works across the construction, mining, agricultural, environmental and advanced materials sectors to design new products, optimise processing methods and establish robust quality assurance frameworks. Whether developing new cementitious materials, evaluating industrial residues for reuse, or refining manufacturing processes, we focus on delivering technically sound and commercially practical outcomes.
A key part of our work involves identifying opportunities to repurpose industrial by-products and underutilised resources. By characterising these materials and integrating them into new products or processes, we help clients reduce disposal costs, improve resource efficiency and create new value streams while supporting sustainability and circular economy objectives.
Material Characterisation &
Technical Assessment
We conduct advanced material characterisations to understand the composition, structure and performance potential of raw materials and industrial by-products. This includes bulk chemistry, mineralogical analysis, reactivity and microstructural investigation to determine suitability for new products or applications.
Product Development & Mix Design
Reformix supports the development of new material formulations and products through structured laboratory & field testing and engineering design. This includes geopolymer systems, supplementary cementitious materials, agricultural chemical formulations and other advanced material formulations designed for durability, performance and scalability.
Process Development & Optimisation
We assist organisations in developing or refining manufacturing and processing pathways. This includes identifying optimal feedstock preparation methods, optimised chemical reaction processes, and production conditions to achieve consistent product quality and performance.

Delivering Practical Innovation
Our consulting combines rigorous scientific analysis with real-world engineering experience. Many of the materials we work with originate from complex industrial environments, where feedstock composition can change over time. By integrating advanced analytical methods with applied product development, we help organisations move from concept through to validated products and commercial-scale solutions.
"Ironstone Civil engaged Reformix Materials Group to support our R&D efforts in understanding and developing a specialist material system, and we were extremely pleased with the engagement. Hendrik and Ramon were professional, approachable and highly knowledgeable, with an ability to explain complex material science concepts in practical, easy-to-understand terms that greatly assisted our investigation and commercial decision-making.
Their team delivered everything within agreed timeframes and scope, and the intensive week of testing undertaken at our premises accelerated our program significantly in a way that would have been difficult for us to achieve internally. We found Reformix a valuable technical resource, easy to work with, and would gladly engage them again and recommend them to others."

"Ramon and Hendrik were among the pioneers of Colliecrete at Murdoch University. They helped to develop a lot of the foundational knowledge that underpinned the team both in Collie and our Mudlark Geopolymer Lab on campus.
Ramon and Hendrik via Reformix performed advanced laboratory and analytical services and I have seen some of the highly technical reports they produced and these are excellent along with useful plain English descriptions enabling user friendly reports."
