Drug Delivery Companies Come Together under Aptar Pharma Brand

Makers of drug delivery systems Pfeiffer and Valois, which are both members of the Aptargroup family of companies, have undergone a “market-focused realignment” to form the new Aptar Pharma brand. Two divisions will form the nucleus of the brand: Consumer Health Care for over-the-counter products and Prescription for physician-prescribed drug-delivery solutions.

In addition to the pharma group, Aptar Beauty + Home and Aptar Food + Beverage are part of the companywide strategic realignment.

“We have always been driven to better serve our customers by enhancing our understanding of their needs and the changing markets in which they operate,” explains Peter Pfeiffer, Aptargroup President and CEO, in a recently issued press release. “This realignment will make it even easier for customers to do business with us, and we will be able to offer our full product range in each of our three segments.”

Aptar Pharma will be formed progressively during 2010 and is slated to be fully operational starting in 2011.
