Pharmax Products in List View

Pharmax LLC, a privately owned company, was established in 1998 as a strategic alliance between highly experienced American healthcare professionals and Cultech Limited, the prime nutritional supplement development and manufacturing company in the U.K. Cultech is the market-leading provider of research-driven nutriceuticals to healthcare professionals in U.K and within Europe as a whole.

The development of the Pharmax product range is built upon a bedrock of forward-thinking scientific research. Potential new products and materials are critically evaluated, initially by assessment of independent research findings and then through an intensive in-house research and development program. Finally, some of the products are further evaluated in extensive independent clinical trials.

The Pharmax product range is extremely comprehensive, encompassing nutriceuticals such as vitamins, probiotics, fatty acids, standardized herbal extracts and the latest types of potent antioxidants. The range also includes special combination products, containing nutrients scientifically proven to help certain medical and physiological conditions.

Critically, all the Pharmax products have been developed and manufactured under strict ISO 9001:2000 conditions, an internationally recognized quality standard.

With unrivalled expertise in a broad spectrum of scientific disciplines, the Pharmax alliance is totally committed to increasing the awareness of the benefits of nutritional healthcare and to bridging the gap between healthcare professionals and the scientific community.

To this end, Pharmax offers professional advice and technical support to its clients, as well as providing a program of scientific, educational seminars to promote greater understanding of the basis of nutritional therapy.

Written protocols are also available to further assist the healthcare practitioner in the correct and relevant administering of a product, or combination of products, in order to address a variety of specific medical conditions.

It is the belief of the Pharmax alliance that to provide a comprehensive, high quality service to the healthcare professional, all facets of product development and manufacture need to be based on the sound principles of nutritional science. Additionally, the application of these principles needs to be in context of a wider consideration of other complementary and orthodox treatment regimes.

Research and Development

The fully staffed, research and development center of the Pharmax alliance has in-house expertise ranging from microbiology and immunology through to nutritional science. The major thrusts of current research include:

The role of normal human microflora in health and disease.
The development of natural plant antimicrobials.
The role of fatty acids in infant cognitive development and inflammatory disease.

Product development within the Pharmax alliance is based on our own in-house research (much of which has been published and peer reviewed) combined with latest scientific thinking obtained through extensive links and financed research at academic institutions, medical schools and hospitals.

The Pharmax alliance is a pioneer of many new product delivery systems and innovative raw material components. Many of the Pharmax product ingredients have been developed and are manufactured in-house using technologies such as emulsification, miscellisation, micro-encapsulation and freeze drying.

Manufacturing

The manufacture of the Pharmax range takes place within the Pharmax alliance at the new state-of-the-art facility based in South Wales, U.K. All production processes, from raw material manufacture to encapsulation and through to product packing and labelling, are contained in clean-room environments, complete with humidity control and dust extraction.

Quality control checks are made at every step of the process for each individual product in accordance with strict quality standard requirements.

Within the Pharmax alliance, every effort is made to use the highest manufacturing quality and purest raw materials.
