Aspiration & Values

We want to change the way iron deficiency is prevented and treated.

Our Aspiration

More than one billion people around the world live with iron deficiency anaemia, making this one of the largest global health challenges of our time.* At Pharmacosmos, we want to change the way iron deficiency is prevented and treated in humans and animals. We do so by striving to stay at the scientific forefront and by partnering with pioneers in scientific communities. *Pasricha SR, Tye-Din J, Muckenthaler MU, Swinkels DW. Iron deficiency.

COMMITTED TO QUALITY

Quality is our source of inspiration. Quality drives our results. It represents our aspiration for excellence and our focus on driving continual improvements. For our partners and end-users, quality must always be tangible in our products, processes and people. This way, quality is the promise we keep every day.

We respect each individual who becomes a part of our journey, from our employees and partners to our end-users. And we recognise that the strength in all our collaborations is trust.

INNOVATING FOR BETTER LIVES

Innovation is essential in our quest to improve the lives of humans and animals. We seek to address unmet needs through our expertise in iron and carbohydrate-based pharmaceuticals. We believe in a holistic and collaborative approach to research and innovation, so we work together with the scientific and medical communities to set new standards.
