Reflora Labs (U) Limited is a natural products chemistry and biotech company. We turn agricultural residues into medicinal compounds, design and test formulations, and train the next generation of chemists - from the bench to the bottle.
Founded from the Chemistry Department in Kyambogo, Kampala, Reflora Labs exists to give agricultural by-products - hibiscus calyces, pineapple husks, moringa leaf, ginger fibre - a second life as medicine, cosmetic ingredients, and functional foods. We pair that field knowledge with computational drug design and formal laboratory training.
Read our storyEvery service we offer traces back to natural products chemistry - whether the output is a bottled tonic, a cosmetic base, a modelled molecule, or a trained pair of hands.
Converting husks, peels, calyces and leaf residues from Ugandan agriculture into standardised medicinal extracts and functional ingredients.
Formulation science for skincare, haircare and topical wellness brands - from ingredient sourcing to bench-scale prototypes.
In-silico screening, docking and molecular modelling to accelerate the identification of bioactive lead compounds.
Hands-on programmes for students across synthetic and natural chemistry techniques, instrumentation and lab safety.

Our chemistry department runs discovery pipelines spanning both classical synthetic routes and natural product isolation - bridging traditional Ugandan botanicals with modern pharmacology and structure-based design.
Every Reflora product begins as a research question. What you see on the shelf is the answer - dried, bottled, and dosed.
