PharmaLine™ with IPEC – PQG GMP Conformity Declaration
We obtained a conformity declaration for IPEC – PQG Good Manufacturing Practices for pharmaceutical excipients in 2006. This sets strict benchmarks in the areas of training and hygiene, pest control, cleaning of production equipment, documentation of individual process steps, traceability of intermediate products and raw materials, and supplier auditing. This saves our customers from having to carry out numerous individual audits.

Extensive purity data
Extensive purity data covering microbiology, aflatoxins, heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, etc. as well as US Drug Master Files (type IV) are available.

We practice comprehensive quality management to achieve consistently high standards.
All production methods and processes are documented, and finished products are subjected to intensive testing. Through our equipment and safety-conscious, highly trained employees we comply with relevant regulations. We offer you pharmacopoeia-compliant analytics.

Shipment is made directly by Cognis or through an approved distributor.
This is how we fulfill our own stringent safety specifications, from raw material and packaging through storage, logistics and delivery.
