Schaer Pharma

Overview of the organisation

The tranquil town of Itingen in the Swiss canton of Basel-Country is where tradition meets pioneering innovation at Schaer Pharma. With a passionate entrepreneurial spirit and our extensive expertise, we create exceptional products for consciously living people who place a high value on their health as well as on nature. Owing to the wide range of products, we can serve our loyal customers throughout their lives.

Every day, we are fully committed to the health and well-being of our customers. To live up to this promise, we are continually developing existing products and constantly working on innovations. In addition, we always keep our eyes open for innovations with which we can meaningfully expand our product range in the best interests of the consumer.

Whether medicines, medical devices, food supplements or cosmetics, what matters above all else to consumers is effectiveness and benefit – and that is how it should be. Our brands and carefully manufactured products are backed by several companies and, with them, highly trained, dedicated employees from all over the world. Our in-house commitment is complemented by long-standing partnerships with suppliers and sales organisations in more than 40 countries.

From Itingen to the world. Because health knows no boundaries.

In 1989, Michel Schaer founded Tentan AG, and thus laid the foundation stone for the Schaer Pharma family. Internationally successful with local roots: These two qualities distinguish the corporate group, which has grown steadily over the years. Each expansion step contributes to the overriding goal of keeping channels short and being as close as possible to the market and the people.

Memberships

For consumer welfare and continual development, Schaer Pharma and the companies in the group belong to various industry organisations and associations.

Our certifications

Schaer Pharma markets products from a wide range of product categories that are subject to a variety of regulations. Very high quality standards apply in particular to medicines and medical devices.
To be able to trade in certain product categories, specific certifications must have been obtained. For example, Tentan AG is certified to GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) standards for the Staad site and to GDP (Good Distribution Practice) standards for the Itingen site. Tentan AG therefore fulfils the qualitative aspects required to be able to trade in various medicines as the marketing authorisation holder and also to package them itself at the Staad site. Furthermore, the two companies New Care AG and Tentan AG at the Itingen site are certified to ISO 13485 and act as manufacturers of a variety of medical devices.
