About
Phytopharm Klęka S.A. has been operating in the market since 1949. It started as a producer and seller of herbal raw materials.
Our company is a part of The Nature Network® holding – a global leader in effective, safe, and innovative market operations in terms of sourcing plant raw materials and then refining them to obtain semi-finished and finished products of the highest quality, as well as in terms of laboratory, advisory, and distribution services.
Today, however, we are a cutting-edge pharmaceutical company manufacturing active substances and plant extracts for the production of drugs and dietary supplements, but also finished products made primarily from natural ingredients.
We offer our customers private label finished products as well as contract manufacturing services, such as formulation preparation, raw material sourcing, active substance manufacture, and finished drug liquid form manufacture together with registration documentation.
We have our own research and development laboratory as well as quality control laboratory. Consumers and pharmacists have trusted our products for many years. Many of the products rank top in their therapeutic categories.
In 2019, we put into service the cutting-edge herbafin® liquid product manufacture and packaging department. Its efficiency amounts to ca. 40 M packages per year.
We can use glass and plastic packages; the line is also adapted for automatic feeding of spoons, syringes, and for spray cap assembly. The processes are compliant with GMP in the European Union and Russia, as well as they meet the ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 22000 standards (including serialization and medical devices). Therefore, we can safely say that it is one of the most advanced production facilities in the country.
