We have a profound know-how stemming from our strong R&D capabilities in key therapeutic areas, coupled with our excellence in commercial execution and our powerful direct presence on a global basis.
Menarini, know-how since 1886
Menarini’s long history in manufacturing medicinal products for human use results in a strong know-how in good manufacturing and good distribution practices, high level manufacturing technology, advanced health, safety & environment management and structured management of technological asset.
A new challenge is the digital transformation of our manufacturing sites with a positive impact on process performance and services related to the patients. Implementation of new technologies adds value to the traditional control and monitoring with an optimized capacity to predict the impact of slight changes on any manufacturing activity.
Requisites for a medicinal product remain unchanged. It must be:
- EFFECTIVE:
it must produce the expected therapeutic effect;
- SAFE:
it must not pose a risk to patients’ health;
- CONTROLLED:
it must correspond to the authorized specifications.
Quality is applied by implementing the European and International laws and regulations and Menarini’s additional internal standards throughout the whole lifecycle of a medicinal product, from the development phase to the commercialization.
