Frutarom Health increases phytopharmaceutical capacity:With expansion of its position in Germany

摘要

Frutarom Health BU reports it will strengthen focus on its phytopharmaceutical business in 2017. This follows the 2016 acquisition of Extrakt Chemie GmbH & Co.KG, in Stadhagen, near Hannover, Germany, and supports the rapid growth of its pure phytopharmaceutical line. The global size of the phytopharmaceutical market is estimated at €750-850 million, with 90% of the market concentrated domestically in the EU. German-speaking countries make up half of that market, followed by France. The predominant health areas this market covers are: cough & cold; mental health (stress, mood, fatigue, restlessness, cognition); gastrointestinal disorders; and cardiovascular health.
