Let’s talk about Pharmanager Ingredients’ ambitions

Since its creation in 2004, François Baranger’s aim has been to restore natural ingredients, and in particular those derived from plants, to their central role in preserving health. This approach is reflected in our desire to guide our customers in their product development projects, in order to contribute to the health of all.

Challenges met every day

Our value proposition is the creation of a range of plants and plant extracts, as well as technical, regulatory and marketing support for our customers.

But our mission faces many challenges. Medicinal plants are traditionally part of our diet, supporting our health, and in France, 60% of food supplements contain plants. Today, the challenge we all face together at Pharmanager Ingredients is to be able to supply these plants and extracts to healthcare manufacturers, while complying with quality, health and regulatory requirements and guaranteeing supplies.

To meet these challenges, we have a common foundation, shared values that enable us to move forward serenely and in the same direction. We know where we want to go and how to get there.

A common foundation built on our values

The Natural
in our ingredients and exchanges.

The human
at the heart of the company.

Involvement
in the challenges we face.

Trust
in ourselves, our partners and our customers.

Conviviality
as a basis for living together.

The pillars of our organization

Pharmanager Ingredients is built on two solid pillars

Expertise

on development, regulatory support, quality control of plants, extracts and natural substances, as well as advice on the formulation of your dietary supplements.

A subsidiary in China to control everything

In 2005, a 100% Pharmanager Group subsidiary was created, headed by Xuan Gao, to develop ingredient projects using raw materials endemic to China. The aim is to implement R&D projects on a pilot and industrial scale with our partners.

China, with its history and traditional medicine, has botanical resources that are particularly well-suited to dietary supplement applications. We work closely and intelligently with our subsidiary and our partners, to ensure that our ingredients comply fully with our quality requirements, comply with European regulations and, above all, meet our customers’ needs.

ESFRI: A short, traceable and, quite simply, coherent supply chain.

A unique approach! The ESFRI network, created in 2015, is the result of a unique partnership between 3 experts pooling their skills. The principle remains that of “saying what we do, and doing what we say”, particularly when it comes to traceability, safety and control… the better to do it!

Pharmanager Development

We would be remiss if we did not mention our sister company, Pharmanager Development, which supports us with regulatory assessments, scientific justifications, and interactions with relevant local authorities regarding our ingredients. Regulatory compliance is no longer a step to be taken at the end of the development process but must instead be initiated at the very beginning of the formulation ideation phase. This ensures that our customers can confidently use our ingredients in their formulations and marketing strategies across various markets.

ITEIPMAI: A long-standing partner for our analyses

A partner from the very start of the Pharmanager Ingredients adventure, ITEIPMAI and its control laboratory support us in the phytochemical analysis of the plants we use for our extracts and Premium products.

The strength of ITEIPMAI:

  • Top-of-the-range equipment for the identification and analysis of secondary metabolites.
  • Support for the development of methods adapted to our extracts.
  • A team that listens and makes proposals to our quality department to improve analysis methods.
