We are pleased to announce that Pharmia Oy has become part of the Italian Labomar Group.
This acquisition strengthens Pharmia’s position as an international pioneer in health and well-being, while also bringing additional expertise and resources to the benefit of our customers.
Pharmia will continue to operate under its own name and with its current team, but now as part of Labomar Group’s wider organization and values. Together, we can provide even stronger solutions in the fields of food supplements, medical devices, cosmetics, and specialized nutrition products.
Labomar Group is a B Corp-certified international company with more than 25 years of experience in research, development, and contract manufacturing. This acquisition marks an important step toward continuous growth and the strengthening of innovation.
Pharmia has a desire to succeed also in export markets. As one of the steps, Pharmia participated in the Vitafoods exhibition held in Barcelona in May. We showcased our operations and highlighted our new products and areas of expertise—we are clearly an attractive domestic and Nordic contract manufacturer for food supplements and medical devices. After the fair, Pharmia’s product development team has been working on dozens of new projects—we are constantly learning new things and doing our best to ensure the success of our customers and to support new customer acquisition.
With each customer, we focus on customization, close collaboration, and strong project management in product development—reliability and quality are especially important to us. From Pharmia’s product development portfolio, around 50 new product projects are turned into tangible products every year for pharmacies and self-care sales channels. Our efforts are rewarded by the results—our customers’ success is Pharmia’s success as well.

The year 2024 was one of development and concrete action in Pharmia’s sustainability work. Our third sustainability report highlights the progress we’ve made in reducing our greenhouse gas emissions, creating a safer working environment, and improving our packaging solutions.
Significant Emissions Reductions One of our greatest achievements in 2024 was reducing our greenhouse gas emissions. Our total emissions dropped by 19% from the previous year—and by as much as 23% compared to 2022. This was made possible by determined efforts to improve our production and supply chain.
More Responsible Packaging Development We are actively seeking alternatives to virgin HDPE plastic, especially recycled materials. In 2024, we launched our PET project to assess the quality and suitability of recycled rPET plastic for our products and customer needs. Our goal is to shift to more sustainable packaging solutions—without compromising product safety or customer satisfaction.
A Safe and Supportive Workplace We also made progress in occupational safety: the number of workplace accidents declined, and we continued investing in personal protective equipment, training, and facility upgrades. Additionally, we established the Pharmers team to promote staff wellbeing and workplace satisfaction.
Work Continues in 2025 In 2025, we will continue along the path that has proven successful. Our goals include meeting the demands of ISO 14001 environmental management standard, improving energy efficiency in collaboration with our property owner, and further developing our recycling solutions. We also plan to begin exploring the VSME reporting standard and assessing our key sustainability topics through materiality analysis.
We remain fully committed to our sustainability work to ensure our products are safe, high-quality, and aligned with our customers’ expectations.

Pharmia has been involved in following the development journey of Nordic Bioproducts Group and the end result is the first approved cellulose quality which will be used in food supplements manufactured by Pharmia.

As the final step of the branding project initiated at Pharmia in January 2024, we are excited to announce the launch of our new website. Our updated site offers even more up-to-date information about Pharmia, Finland’s largest contract manufacturer. In addition, we have improved the accessibility of our website as part of this redesign. The new website is now available in six different languages to ensure we are easier to find. Moving forward, we will also continue to showcase our capabilities, innovations and capacity on the new site. With this update, we hope that new and current customers, raw material suppliers, packaging material suppliers and job seekers can easily find what they are looking for.
